Who here /unironicallytankie/

What are the pros of being tankie? Looks like lot of cons to me.

Only around liberals and reactionaries simply to trigger them

Authoritarian socialism offers the pros of basic socialism and keeps society in order and from degrading into fun.

I like Stalin and Lenin better than Trotsky.

Agreed.

No.
Hungary 1956 and Czechoslovakia 1968 were massive mistakes. I remember reading that many ideological communists in the Soviet Union lost faith in the system due to these events, especially 1968.

I'm a tankie who gradually lost all soviet nostalgia and trad-nationalism because of LeftComs and qt traps on Holla Forums and SocDem "socialist" larpers in my own country.
what do? Should I just kill myself? I'm considering cycling into full AnCap in order to become optimist about the future.

ML but not a tankie

That tends to happen when you base your ideology on death cult like Marxism. Religions can`t stand critique without their inquisitions.

Send in the tanks.

remind me what you did to rosa again

You mean you're a Leninist? ML is tankie thought by definition.

You must re-educate yourself​

This coming from the same ideological group which saw fit to murder real leftists during the Spartacist Uprising.

But I like fun, OP.

Pretty much same fam. ML but not tankie.


I realized that "authoritarianism" is a spook to make workers think taking power is immoral or "bad." It's literally reciting lib bullshit and anarchists bought it somehow.

no, not even close. "ML" and "tankie" are not synonyms, no matter how much people bang that shit over everyone's heads around here.

i'm 'tankie' in the sense that fascists don't have "rights" and the idea that we throw them in prison shouldn't frighten us since they brought it on themselves anyways

i've noticed a lot of people that get spooked about """authoritarianism""" are just socialists-in-name-only that somehow refuse to let go of their liberal sensibilities. they're the kind of people that don't have a stomach for any kind of revolution and will always fold to align themselves with someone to the right of them when they think the left as gone "too far" ….


i am pretty strongly against any form of censorship, though

Tankies should rot in the gulags they love so much

At least fascists are honest

This.

i wouldn't call it authoritarian, i'd call it bureaucratic socialism

Somehow, you think that's not inherently authoritarian socialism.

Fuck off back to 4chan's leftypol, adults only on this board faggot

4chan doesn't have a leftypol you dumb nigger.

how new are you ?

wat

Only an an-fem could be this fucking stupid.

jej and lal

I mean, eastern bloc did some good things, overall a mixed bag imo. Stalin and Hoxha did ok, Mao was a fucking failure at everything besides military strategy tho.

leav naow

Me tbh

>>>Holla Forums

Depends on what you mean. If you mean defending contemporary and historical socialist states against various bullshit statements, imperialism, revisionism or opportunism, then call me a tankie.
If it means defending said socialist states without criticism or nuance whatsoever, then call me anti-tankie. If it means masturbating to strongmen, then call me anti-tankie. Reminder that ML =/= tankie.

I hear tankism is just social democracy from the barrel of a gun.

I so guess I'm a tankie via the ballot

also my plan for a new social democratic symbol is two crossed dead rosa luxembergs on a field of dead rosa luxembergs motif

I never did quite understand self proclaimed leftists fapping to putin.

That's a nazbol mémé, much like fapping to Assad or the Kims.

hurr durr im a tancuck

Non-Authoritarian socialism was pretty much impossible 100 years ago, at least on a large scale. Tankies had their right to exist back then.

Nowadays things are different. We are not in times where workers are unable to read anymore. Technology and increasing education make non-authoritarian socialism both possible and the best option by far.
(Not to mention that non-authoritarian socialism is the only kind of socialism that will have at leaat some glimpse of possibility in the First World.)
