Is a a tantrum the correct definition for someone pacing their social media intake, posting out calm replies while otherwise enjoying their offline life ?

I don't think so

You're going to have to learn that claiming victory does not always equate being victorious

I am not going anywhere

No. You are wrong, sorry ! (This exchange is getting more interesting each day lol)

Well you might think that but to me and the rest of the world a tankie is someone who behaves according to the definition I have given above (the content of which you have failed to address)

Not all leftists are tankies but those who say that tankies are an hallucination... probably are

Well if they were a straw-man, a category made-up by centrists, they wouldn't be *a thing*, as in some category grounded in reality not in the political needs of centrists

I think I have shown restraint. The only reason I would be all heated is because I am comfortably drinking tea from my bed :)

Apparently the rest of the world agree that they are a thing but ok. I guess denial is easier than taking the mask off and admit that you were defending Assad, Gaddafi or Putin

Dog that's a lazy answer

For everyone else:

"Tankie" characterizes activists and political figures within Western left-wing movements who after the fall of the Soviet Union supported to varying degrees authoritarian regimes claiming to resist American imperialism

No. It has always been that they don't like war when it's from "imperialist" (i.e liberal democracies,) but welcome a war of aggression as necessary self-defense against imperialism when it comes from "anti-imperialist" states (which are all full blown dictatorships)

This is part one of a two part series on the "korean gender war" and the link to gacha games which I thought was great:

C'est pas la section de commentaires de YouTube ici. Tu peux expliquer pourquoi tu jettes le doute sur le fait que ce soit des actes de vandalisme ou bien tu vas continuer à caquer sans donner d'arguments ?

To be fair, it's not the most famous nazi symbol

The lightning-styled "SS" one is much more famous but even that one probably ended up on some ignorant skin

"Make demands" to the system to change it ? If what you are after is the system, then you don't make demands to it, you try to change it

Now, how do you change a system ?

Everyone is smart enough to come with the "release valve" theory but resistance is actually hard and it's a fine line to walk

How does "organizing" to "make demands" to "change the system" work ?

Organizing is what ? Get people together and have them talk about the changes they want in a room ? How is that more useful than being as many as possible in the streets ?

Also who is going to listen to your demands right now ?

Maybe I was just driven towards the wrong kind of leftist groups for $reasons. Glad to know you stumbled upon some effective ones.
October 8, 2025 at 8:04 PM
I mean yes but my point is that so many of this left groups are more of a network of people who want to have the "correct" positions and nothing else rather than say a group of feminists trying to create a support group for women who experience violence trying to coordinate with UBI supporters

This piece is very short. I was recommending the whole series relating her experience.
I would grant that the kind of group she is talking about is more of a "milieu" rather than the grassroots type but I wouldn't be so quick to say the former is only online. At least this is not my experience.

If you are on the left, it is a very tempting argument to make but I believe it is a bit too much self-serving. I think we should look more into the psychological tendencies of the people our side tends to attract

This substack is what changed my mind :

The Right Looks for Converts; the Left Looks for Traitors
After publishing my essay about my life as an anarchist a few weeks ago, I got a message from a stranger on Instagram that read: “I’m trying to decide if you’re secretly a centrist.” I told her that I...
