    A faschist with a red flag.

    The term origenaly referred to lefties that supported the Soviet Union rolling tanks into nations protesting for democracy.

    Modern tankies defend historical "communist" states and their successer states like Russia. They can often be seen glorifying dictators and denying genocides.

    Well described, actually. And most of the tankies can be fought with actual knowledge of Marxism and socialism, since they try to pass themselves as all-so-knowledgeable of them and then spew the worst kind of misunderstandings of the socialist theories. Pseudo-intellectual edgy teenage-minded dumb-dumbs, in a nutshell

    I discovered you can score extra points where you deconstruct their argument to the point where they'll call you a "debate pervert" and ragequit the fediverse

    Thing is, they'll have so much unread communist literature around their home they're bound to come back. Much easier to jump back into the bearbubble than read those big, big books

    Another thing they share in common: gaslighting queer people into forgetting their history.

    I see way more posts complaining about these groups than content from the groups themselves.

    They very genuinely hate men and thus can't understand why anyone would "want" to be one, nor do they accept anyone who "once was a man." Once you see shit like "political lesbianism" thrown around, you understand that there's just no hope.

    It's like a horseshoe from TERF to toxic masculinity, as both groups are terrified of seeing beauty in men (and all people) and have a very narrow definition of what a man can be.
