Dunking on Tankies from a leftist perspective.

A tankie is someone who defends/supports authoritarian or even totalitarian regimes who call themselves "socialist". The term originated from people supporting the 1956 invasion of Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays they are just terminally online, denying genocides, and falling for totalitarian propaganda and calling such regimes "true democracies". remember to censor usernames when necessary.

I don't disagree with the general spirit of the post (E: and I'm pretty sure you aren't the one who made it), but the ableist last point and "brain damage" wojack ruin it. Also fuck electoralism. We can do better.
