Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. No bigotry of any kind.
  2. No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
  3. No genocide denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!

Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

Kropotkin's Conquest Of Bread

Selected works of Marx

"Globalists". Globalism should be the ultimate goal for humans of the earth yet there is noise out there that shows globalism in a negative light.

Economic globalisation is often associated with the decline of manufacturing in western countries and the associated job loss, while those issues are actually caused by unregulated capitalism (lack of labour laws and no local environmental protections).

It is also associated with some conspiracy theories of Jews secretly running the world.

The theorists usually say "bankers" these days
