Jus the way it goes with the lemmy libs ig ha ha
No, its just a nonesense take. Arguing will lead to nothing because you live with a picture of "libs" pretty simmilar to what the republicans have. Actual anarchist and even the rare smart communist can differentiate between komplex problems.
Dont try to explain that to a .ml! It will weaken their cozy black n white worldview and make them feel Bad!
How do communists have a "black and white" worldview? Dialectical Materialism is useful because it works against such worldviews as are standard within liberalism.
Not all communist are tankies. Tankies mainly get trashed by communist and anarchist.
"Tankie" is just a pejorative for communist, akin to "commie, pinko, and red." It's a caricature, not an actual ideological position.
Well, yes. In its caricature it still puts a focus in people who defend any state that calls itself communist in defiance of their institutional violence. So its not just any commi being a tankie
The overwhelming majority of communists support socialist countries like China, Cuba, Vietnam, etc. If "tankie" applies to the overwhelming majority of communists, then it's just a pejorative for communists.
Sure
Yes? What counts as a "communist," in your eyes?
