I’m trying to imagine the audacity of saying that the US needs to stop supporting Ukraine because they’re “forcing Ukrainians to die” like Ukrainians aren’t choosing to fight regardless of the US’s decisions. Because whether the US does continue to support Ukraine, the existential threat to Ukraine remains, and the only other option is the inevitable slaughter of Ukrainians if Russia is allowed through.

Haven’t seen any tankies on tumblr yet so we’re good for now

"sexual assault isn't ressistance" seriously stop trying to conform to western purity standards! we cannot resist zions oppression with people like you telling everyone what can and can't be praxis!!! people are going to have to face conasqences for what their countries do and this type of praxis has been done in the swana region for thousands of years!!!

What the fuck how do I even answer this? How are tankies this wrong about humans?

Chat, is it imperialism to think rape is bad?

Okay I know most tankies are operating off a spicy mix of disinformation and delusions, but it just really floors me anytime I read them romanticizing the USSR in particular. Like I know I am biased against them in particular as a Jew but one of the things that has always struck me is that… even if you fell in line and were a party loyalist, either genuinely or as a bid to keep yourself and your family safe that would not protect you. If you read about the Jewish Antifascist Committee and the Night of the Murdered Poets, you would know. If you knew about Solomon Mikhoels, after years of him being the leading actor and director of the Moscow State Yiddish Theatre and publicly supporting Stalin against Hitler and traveling the world drumming up support for the Soviets against the Nazis, only to be sent to Minsk and brutally and senselessly assassinated by Stalin’s thugs, you would know.

The Jewish Antifascist Committee , whose members signed in hopes of aiding fellow Jews in escaping the Shoah, were executed, save for Lina Shtern who was exhiled to Dzhambul (same region as Solzhenitsyn) Kazakhstan, is not only is another example of how Jews were forced to participate in their own destruction.

But also…You could go so quickly from (conditional, temporary) acceptance and even applause to your demise and being erased, on the whim of a dictator.

Tankie getting the Authentic Russian Experience™

LMAO.

Unsurprisingly, this ghoul is getting called out on Twitter for her post, and the way she has responded to the criticism has been childish and petulant:

The last comment is hilarious, like she isn't trying to advance her own political agenda here. 🙄

And we're supposed to take her seriously as a journalist. 😒

Talk about lack of professionalism and deeply embarrassing behavior on her part.

Not all antisemites are tankies but all tankies are antisemites.

tfw you think you're following someone cool but they turn out to be a total tankie

Reminder that Michael Prysner, the husband of Abby Martin (herself a prominent Putin apologist who has organized with Nazis) is a US Army "interrogation officer" (torturer) who worked (tortured people) in Iraq for years before finding his supposed principles. Michael Prysner is a senior and prominent PSL organizer.

PSL is the same group that lied to radicals on the ground at the Tacoma action and prevented protesters from acting to stop the military loading of arms shipments to the Israeli occupation. As a result, nearly a full shipment of ammunition and materiel was loaded.

PSL is the same group that worked with police to allow Zionists to pass their "protest" of a Zionist fundraising gala which met to raise funds for the occupation.

PSL is the same group that swoops protests to gather signatures for petitions, peace police, and report radical actions to the police.

PSL's presidential candidate's stance on masking is the eugenicist position of "we don't require masks because if the federal government won't, with all its power, how and why can or should we?" PSL has been messaging prominent Palestinian activist accounts asking them to platform their presidential candidate as an alternative to Genocide Joe, seeing yet another opportunity for power. They care nothing for stopping genocide, only for gathering more power to themselves for their perpetual camapign to make America socialist and thus somehow Good. They will not and do not support radical acts of liberation; they are craven authoritarians who think that America can simply be reformed through voting and acting under their control.

PSL is red fash and cannot and should not be trusted. Any action they are involved in is suspect and extremely dangerous.

“Why aren’t Ukrainians surrendering” Russians are castrating Ukrainian soldiers so that they can’t have Ukrainian children. You know, in case the hundreds of other crimes weren’t enough

Let’s make something quite clear.

NO political ideology is sexy!

Even if it is a perfectly sound one!

I’m not a leftist because it’s “sexy”. I’m a leftist for very good reason, sure.

But it’s not because I find leftist ideologies to be sexy! (Some of them are fucking stupid! How else do you explain tankies?)

No political ideology is sexy! No matter how sound or unhinged.

And it sure as shit isn’t an aesthetic either.

Shallow superficial bullshit.

What the fuck.

Who the FUCK says that shit unironically?!

It just makes you sound deranged.

Otherwise you’d have to be taking the piss!

And it isn’t gonna persuade people either.

So don’t do it!

Ever!

Why are y’all getting your info on the I/P on this guy.

This guy can’t handle seeing girls in bikinis lol.

Also he blames the “zionists” for this. Wtf do zionists have to do with girls in bikinis in a video game. Also this game isn’t meant for children you fucking idiot. This guy is not only an antisemite but a mask off conservative. I can’t believe so called “leftists” actually like this guy

The way radlibs will act like Biden is flawed but making progress when he is objectively right wing is so similar to the way tankies will act like Xi is flawed but making progress when he's objectively right wing.

HEADS UP to my Jewish followers: @arabian-knight is back again as libyan-knight

This is the same jackass who's bullied/harassed Jews, promoted tankies like brendanicus on their blog, denied Hamas committed rape/sexual assault on October 7th, spread a bunch of other antisemitic garbage, and has repeatedly engaged in suicide-baiting:

@staff @humans Are you going to do anything about this?

I’m sorry, but you can’t call yourself a leftist who cares about people and then stan actual dictators and/or terrorist organizations who brought back sexual slavery to a part of the world.
