I can never tell when tankies are arguing in bad faith, or legitimately not understanding the point. Not that it really matters in the end, I suppose, lol
Yup. I keep saying this about places like Hexbear. From my interactions, the majority seem to be True Believers™. People keep mistaking the “authoritarian first, and leftist maybe third or fourth (but sometimes nothing but lip-service)” attitudes as fascism. However, they are two completely different forms of authoritarianism. Sure, both tend to celebrate summary executions and use LGBTQ+ people as a means to an end but, the desired end is different.
I certainly hope they wouldn’t because it’s really silly and doesn’t seem very effective

Now excuse me while I ragepost like a dozen stale memes about those damn literary Karens running free libraries as virtue signalling in racist petite bourgeois suburbs!

Some large number of them are larping facists trying to troll.
No doubt. Unfortunately, some are certainly genuine.

Yeah, a Tankie would never resort to such a tactic
