Saw a comrade post this as a response in the Mousolini dunk thread, that become a dunk thread on an annoying lib calling us tankies lol.
Thought this was really insightful, and from a different angle than what i usually see as the rascist connotations of "tankie" and of western left anti-communism, and thought it deserved its own thread. Particularly, since the influx of western anti-cummunist takes we've been dealing with recently.
This is a better elaboration on that post I made on that 196 thread that got removed and I presume kicked off this whole discussion.
It really feels like collectively we're heading towards a solution to this, bit by bit.
