The Fediverse is huge and overwhelming to a newcomer, with many different types and each with servers to pick from. Which ones would you suggest checking out or avoiding?

No, you got it backwards. I’m saying that your positions make you a tankie because you oppose genocide. I’m praising you!

Hold on, another point here: so are Maoists and communists that strictly take the Soviet side of the Sino-Soviet split not tankies?
What are you talking about?

There was a genocide in Tiananmen Square?

As a Jew, I feel so safe for my future know that genocide as a term has been diminished to “When the government kills people”.
Say, on a completely unrelated note, did you know that 23% of American adults 18-39 think the Shoah was fabricated or exaggerated?
Also, I guess genocide also includes people resisting genocide, apparently.
That’s horrifying.

I feel like the volume of nonsense that user spewed in this thread really overshadowed the fact that he called the Palestinian resistance genocidal lmao.
Okay, you said “tankies are defined by their defense of genocide” but then say that there was a massacre in Tiananmen Square.
For one, that’s false. No massacre has ever taken place in Tiananmen Square, and if you could find me a source that says otherwise I’d welcome it.
But also, massacre is not the same as genocide. There must be something else you’re talking about.
How do you feel about the Kent State Genocide?
What about the genocide of Ashli Babbitt?
You should know, the origin of the term “tankie” is related to Khruschev sending in tanks to squash a fascist movement in Hungary in 1956, way before the 1989 protests in Beijing.
“Tienaman square”
“Genocide”
Liberals really do just say things
