Tankies are not communists. They are blanquists at best.

Tankie really is the liberal version of saying woke, can't you make up a new buzzword?🤧

Your comment has the "Karen is a racial slur" kind of energy.

Well I do find Karen to be a misogynist term applied to women to silence them from speaking out, so half a point to you🤩. Anyway, what is your point?

And "liberal" is the Tankie go-to for "those we dislike."

Just like it is for the ring-wing fascists.

Well then, what do you call people stopping workers from seizing means of production while at the same time proclaiming themselves to be champions of the working class?

[–] BuGiJu@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I call them liberals💁‍♀️

[–] PlasmaK@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Damn, you call Lenin a liberal?

[–] BuGiJu@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No I call Lenin daddy🥵

What you described was a liberal. People who virtue signal to garner support but do nothing for the working class. A liberal, like you😘

Yeah, Lenin: the counterrevolutionary bastard that seized the power for himself and dismantled all real worker power.
