I must be out of the loop. Are Linux apologists and tankies at cross purposes for some reason?
No but we (Linologists) would defeat them if we were
Okay fair enough, but if that's the case, do you know what this meme is about?
Theres a joke some instances are filled with tankies and it can be annoying for non tankies, when in reality theres actually an even bigger amount of linux apologists who are even more obsessed about their passion/hobby than tankies and talk about it more than they do, which is likely to be more annoying for non linux users. At least thats my takeaway
That was.... honestly a great explanation. Thank you.
But goodness what a deep and context specific cut.
Yeah. Linux is anarchist. Tankies don't believe in Linux because it functions without state ownership. They think it's a CIA psyop.
No? Linux is usually supported by leftists in general, especially considering the alternative is largely MacOS or Windows, both corporate spyware. Marxist-Leninist orgs like FRSO even use it as standard (check the bottom of the page).
Shush, I'm shitposting
Sure, I just think it's left plainly enough that people could read it and genuinely believe that, almost on par with people who think Marx wanted the same formulation of society as Anarchists, when Marx wanted full centralization and Anarchists want full decentralization.
One of the biggest problems on the Left is people speaking past each other or extrapolating analysis from out of context snippets.
Tankies also don't believe in gardening. They think the idea of food coming out of the ground for free is a pie in the sky delusion. Food obviously comes from the food factory, which is too big to be run by local communities.
Don't really know what you're getting at here.
Got ’em, right in the strawman 🥱
Still shitposting.
The argument is quite a Stretch.

I'm not sure I agree with that interpretation, but that's at least an explanation for why they might be at cross purposes. Can anyone else who's upvoting the meme explain what this is about?
