"Tankie" functions for libs the same way, as "woke" does for chuds. It's a meaningless term

[–] Schmoo@slrpnk.net 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

And libs often seems to function for tankies in exactly the same way. I'm an anarchist but when I argue with tankies I get called a lib even as I call for the overthrow of capitalism. Funny how that works, almost as if the problem is dogmatism.

Unlike "Tankie" and "woke", "lib" does in deed have a definition.

So does "tankie" and "woke." I used mine correctly, you are indeed a tankie. When a chud calls a left-wing political activist woke, at least they're using it correctly, even if they don't necessarily know that they are.

You called me a liberal for - let me check - opposing imperialism regardless of who's doing it. Interesting, do you think that fits the definition?
