Tbf this place was programmed by volunteer "tankies."

[–] FlyingCircus@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

The term “tankie” now has about as much meaning now as “woke” does. It’s just a generalization for people to smear an ideology they don’t understand, and have no intention of trying to understand, because they fear that any perceived interest would cause ostracization from their group. People who use tankie almost certainly have no real historical understanding of Marxist projects beyond what they learned in grade school and what their favorite podcaster is saying.
