Ok so a tankie is anyone who questions the baseless assertions of western regimes, the truth isn't actaully important to you, what matters is whether someone upholds obvious falsehoods and reinforces state propaganda but from the west
Got ya buddy
I forgot to add "struggles with reading comprehension", that's also a big indicator
I didn't call anyone a tankie, a whole bunch of people from hexbear sure did show up feeling incredibly offended by my description of tankies though, if they want to out themselves like that, that's on them
No, most of us are tankies. We think using tanks on Hungarian fascists was cool and good.
Baseless accusations, lies, peddling long since-disproven myths and then whining when the consequences come around do actually offend me, you got me
"Reading comprehension" is when you accept everything you read at face value, I'm not really surprised that's something you believe
