I'd rather just be nice to people. I'm not going to go around and find an excuse not to associate with people unless they're dangerous or counter productive. Tankies like me are neither when it comes to any kind of activism. You could make a case for not letting their organizations help you if your values don't align with them. However there is really no reason to exclude good faith participation of every single individual in that group.

I'd really just say that after a long time of thinking it over a harmonious existence is better than one where everyone around me is correct.

Well, many people don't want to be around people with terrible opinions. You could make the same arguments as someone from the far right.

You could start by not labeling yourself after a weapon of war who's sole and only purpose is to kill humans.

That term wasn't made up by us lol, we stole it from libs when they started calling us that.

So you do use that label. I didn't say you made it up.

Mostly as a joke. No one seriously uses it as a descriptor. We call ourselves Marxists-Leninists.
