Some light fluff, Tankies pause the battle against capitalism to engage in some jolly consumerism.

Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism or any variation of Tankie Ideology. There is no justifying Genocide.
Revisionism — Downplaying or denying atrocities past and present will result in an immediate ban.
If you're violating instance rules, you'll typically be warned. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last seven days, but repeat infractions will have longer sentences. You may ask to be unbanned.

hey videogames are fun. been playing some cyberpunk as of late, good jolly.
but uhhh... I don't think there's such a thing as a communist gamer. also man, if they think the industry is bad now, wait until they find out about how monetised China's industry is.
I dunno this feels really normal. People of all walks play video games. On the other end of the spectrum you can be sure there are MAGAts complaining about ‘woke’ games.
Oh nothing wrong with playing games, no. But I do love it when the communists turn into consumerists. These are the people who are going to revolutionise and overthrow capitalism? The ones sucking at its teats?
