You call out Russia or China, MLs think if they regurgitate “read theory” that solves my issues with them.

You call out American liberals and how they aid fascists, you’re calling a secret Trump supporter.

You say that genocide is an evil action, liberals and Tankies will defend their favorite country’s actions because you’re a shill for the enemy if you do.

You say America did something kinda good, you’re somehow a neolib in disguise. You lightly praise the USSR, you’re Stalin’s second cousin as an AI.

I just don’t want people harmed by a government force. Fuck me, I guess? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills for applying the same morals to every politician and country, even ones I live in or slightly like.

    Um, no “tankie” would be upset if you call out genocide. Are you talking about the Uyghurs? Because that’s not a genocide.

      Instead of avoiding the issue by quibbling about definitions in order to serve authoritarianism… (standard tankie tactic)

      Y’all could just oppose the overt oppression of a marginalized group.

            Ok but do you actually have some kind of tangible evidence of genocide (like the thousands of pictures and videos released by Palestinians and colonisers in Gaza), or do you just believe Zenz’s conspiracy theories about census data?
