I mean, a lot of "leftists" are pro Russia...
Only the stupid ones.
@awwwyissss @Nerorero, I have nothing against Russian people, but a lot against certain Russian people
Yeah, the Kremlin gets the blame because they've forcefully consolidated decision-making power.
sovietunion/=russia
True, but some tankies refuse to believe that. They're literally pretending that Christofascist dictator Putin is a good communist 🤦😂
those are not tankies, those are idiots
There's a lot of overlap there, though.
TONS of it. In fact, given that a tankie is by definition someone who is in favor of enforcing a system of equality by utilising oppression (the term stems from when the USSR sent tanks to stop Yugoslavia from establishing a more progressive form of communism than that of Moscow), I'd say that tankies have a 100% idiot overlap.
no one is doing that.
That's simply not true.
The history of the Soviet Union is not great BTW
Also tankies do in general support Russia
I'm not saying all leftist are tankies (I'm a leftist) but what I am saying is that all tankies claim to be leftist while simultaneously supporting fascist and their imperialism.
Pro-Soviet (no longer exist) ≠ pro modern Russia
Against continued war in Ukraine ≠ pro Russia
How does one end the war in Ukraine without Ukrainians having to acquiesce?
if you don't want ukraine to defend itself, you're giving putin exactly what he wants
Pro-Soviet
Okay. But that's worse. You do know that's worse, right?
