        One is doing that on a segment of a niche internet forum, and the other is doing that on millions of humans. Like I said, I know which ones worse. Zionists get people killed. Tankies yell about things that already happened.

      And neither of them are as bad as 1940s Nazis. And those aren’t as bad Maoists. A rotten apple is a rotten apple no matter the variety.

        Cops are rotten apples, So are nonprofit universities that use massive endowments to essentially be for profit. No one would claim they’re just as detrimental to society as each other. One of the groups is clearly worse and it’s surprising how many people are refusing to engage with that idea. If you think Zionists arent getting people killed and Tankies are, I really don’t know what to tell you.

          My friend, you are on a web platform specifically designed to engage in every conversation, including that one. The point everyone who replied to you is try to make is that you going into a conversation thread and sidetracking with no additional value has the same energy as saying “all lives matter” as a reply to black lives matter. No shit Sherlock, but you’re not doing any good by throwing in “but, zionists” to the conversation at hand.

            Is that comparison not me engaging in the discussion? Or is it only engagement when you agree with it? Zionists are killing people, right now. Tankies exist mainly online and their numbers are bolstered by foreign troll farms and sock accounts trying to create division. So sorry I don’t want to buy into that outrage of people who scarcely exist.

              You’re right, it’s engagement at the level of an “all lives matter” chud. I didn’t realize that was the level of thought you were intentionally going for. Congrats I guess?

                Again. Zionists are killing people right now. Tankies are the most minor of minorities. If you think saying Zionists are worse than Tankies is like saying all lives matter you’re one of the kids Bush left behind, so congrats I guess.

    Why does the compromise guy have a hammer and sickle on him? Is it because these countries were formally part of the USSR?

      Today were can clearly see that, communism was always a red herring. Tankies during cold war and tankies today (that love to dress in American flags), were always about supporting of totalitarian regimes.

      The hammer and sickle is to support USSR.

    800 years of russian state imperialism isnt enough to convince some people that the rest of Eastern Europe has truly had enough of one of their own imposing their big brother geopolitics on the rest of them. Every shitty empire has their MO, for russia, its always been a game of lies, deceit, and muddying the waters of truth. The guy in the middle is someone whos been drinking water from a poisoned well somewhere.

          “Hurr durr, it’s unacceptable to us white liberals when everybody but the US does it."

          Are you still here, white supremacist? Have you been priced out of the copium market, perhaps?

              So you don’t understand what the term “Marxist” actually means?

              Color me surprised… do you need me to explain it to you, liberal? Fine - I will.

              Marxist simply means that you understand capitalism through a Marxist lens - that’s it. Nothing more, nothing less.

              You can be a Marxist and be a socialist.

              You can be a Marxist and be a fascist.

              You can be a Marxist and be the most exploitative and parasitic capitalist around.

              Hell, you can be a Marxist while also being the most money-grubbing banker in the west - Marxism will even help you achieve that.

              Are you getting this, liberal? Or is it still flying over your head?
