What is a Tankie?
Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.
(caution of biased source)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.
Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.
Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.
Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.
You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.

I mean, I won't argue on the Israel-destruction thing, but I don't think being secular makes you a nazi.
I'm anti-Zionist, anti-caliphate, anti-Christendom, you know, secular.
Secularism has nothing to do with the wish to destroy Israel, wich is what anti Zionism is. Israel itself is a very secular country, have you been there?
Also 99% of people that are "anti Zionist" are actually just normal antisemitic people that don't want jews to live. Iran for example is famously "anti Zionist" so is Russia, and China.
The not acceptance of theocracies would be a great point to support Israel.
Israel has btw about 20% native Muslim population, they have the exact same rights as the jews and Christians and hindustan (yes Israel has a relatively strong hindu community wich is growing) and there are also many other religions. Guess where there is only one religion?
RIGHT! in the terrorist havens that aren't strong enough to fight these bastards that use them as meat shields and for propaganda.
Remember the Beirut blast? That was a Hezbolla/Iran weapon factory, where they made bombs.
How in the world can a normal human not support Israel and believe the obvious lies about it? Its always the same, as long as it involves jews, its their fault. And when not, they are behind the "bad guys" i thought this ass mentality died after WW2 but no its stronger than ever.
Those are all good points.
I suppose applying it to the Israeli Settlements would be more apt. I reckon if the settlements were dismantled, then the whole anti-zionist stuff would fall apart.
The asshole settlers are hated by 99% of the Israeli population because these assholes make it worse on purpose, they are however not the Israeli government and not on behalf of Israel and these people are basically persona ingrata in Israel itself, most of them are basically Faschists themselves and i wouldn't care for their deaths, they do actually kill innocent people and by doing so endangering the normal Israeli civilians to terrorism. I do wish that the Israeli government would do more against them, but most of the time their resources are bound by the terrorists all around Israel and the capacity to remove the settlements isn't there, also the ass head Netanjahu, or rather some people around him are in favor of them, they are hated by the Israeli people as well.
Why hasn't Israel dismantled the settlements if everyone hates them?
Good question, because some minority in the government blocks that constantly its obvious that Netanjahu is not going to survive the next election, probably nothing of his government. Maybe the next one wollte do something. But these "settlers" are seen as a minor problem compared to the terrorists for obvious reasons.
