        People who’ve gone so far left they’ve come full circle and gone fascist and admire authoritarian communist regimes like China and the USSR. Like flat earthers I thought they were a made up joke until I started seeing a while bunch of unironic “Stalin did nothing wrong” type commentary.

        I think a better question is “where are these tankies?” because I keep seeing people talk about them on these kinds of posts and have yet to actually see a tankie. Who here is defending the killing of POWs? You’d think they exist based on some of the posts here calling out this strawman.
