I'd love for you to explain exactly what you mean by "tankie"
Tankies are people who main Roadhog, Reinhardt or DVa
I think it means someone who likes doing whippets, not sure why they're bringing it up here tho
That's a wook.
Tankie Is a guy that likes propane over charcoal.
It's always just leftists who aren't western brand "leftists", i.e. completely averse to action and change.
Libs will demonize all forms of action and analysis of oppression and then wonder why things just keep getting worse despite them doing a lot of useless, performative things. In the lack of a correct theory, it always comes down to "it's those damn Asians!!!!"
Nah, we both know what I mean, don't try to sealion this. You can fuck off back to Hexbear.
The point is it tankie is an amorphous McCarthyist insult. No one knows exactly what you're saying because most of the people who use it aren't on exactly the same page. I've been called a tankie for supporting Cuba's new family code and the intensely democratic process behind it and for saying the taean work system is a good system.
Yes, we do.
You mean "Woke"
"Woke" on foreign policy...
buddy, we're already on Hexbear, that's how federation works
We really don't know. Unless your definition is someone who supported the Soviet Union sending in tanks to put down the coup in Hungary, then its pretty devoid of meaning
