There isn’t anything there to be offended by, it’s just a lazy and ill-considered application of a political label
It honestly just seems like you dont really know what the politics are, you just know ‘tankie’ as a loosely pejorative term for someone you have strong disagreements with.
Read the room, kid. I’m an anarchist, but I dont run around pretending not to understand the ML perspective just because it’s easier than treating it as coherent.
So why would you, an anarchist, defend those who literally simp for dictators? Because I’m talking about people who literally simp for Russia and China, which are capitalist countries - China minted more new billionaires in 2024 than any other country. Sure, it also has a bigger population than any other country, but if it was in any way communist, wouldn’t they prevent billionaires from happening? And I’m sure you understand that modern day Russia is about exactly as communist as modern day USA.
Do you see yourself as a tankie? Is that why you’re offended?

So do you see yourself as a tankie or not? Why do you refuse to answer the question?

I simply dont believe the people you’re describing exist - at least, not as you’ve chosen to describe them
If you were describing a werewolf, it wouldnt be a defense of their cannibalism to say they aren’t real.
