I just want to clarify, is this calling OP a tankie? (And if so, what am I missing)
Nothing, lemmy world thinks anyone who says democrats are not the left is a tankie. It’s like maga claiming everything is woke. Neither group actually knows what that word means any more, they just know they can use it as a pejorative against outside groups.
Saying Castro is preferable to Harris is absolutely tankie bullshit logic.
Define tankie then. Because theres a necessity of genocide denial and between Castro and Harris, only one is aiding and abeding a genocide . . . but don’t let facts get in the way of you dolts punching left aimlessly then wondering why you lose elections.
A tankie is someone who abandons logic and reason to shill for authoritarian left ideologies, like yourself.
For example, instead of just asking what my definition of tankie is, you felt compelled to throw in a personal attack. Tankies often rely on bad faith arguments, much like fascists. You’re all “ends justify the means” / “the right color boot feels better on your neck” people.
Bro im an anarchist on an anarchist instance and youre calling me a tankie without even being able to define it. Heres a hint, actual tankies, when they had actual political power, sent people like me to camps. So if you could stop calling everyone you don’t agree with tankie that would be great, because real tankies want anarchists dead. Kamala still closer to a real tankie then the person you called a tankie. I encourage you to actually research what that word means. Im under no obligation to be nice to people who call everyone they disagree with a tankie any more than a jew would be nice to someone accusing everyone of being a nazi. You’re diluting a term and making Anarchists less safe by allowing REAL tankies to hide among a sea of people who have nothing to do with that term making it harder for us to organize since fucking everyone is getting called a tankie.
I already defined it. Don’t gaslight.
Tankies send people like me to camps too, friend. So do fascists. We’re tied at best in the hypothetical oppression olympics.
What makes you think the most important thing to me is ensuring anarchists feel safe?
Cool. She’s not a fascist, but she isn’t leftist either. Meming about it won’t change it.
Only right wingers calls her a leftist though. And meant as a slur.
The only people who don’t mean leftist as a slur are leftists.
I’ve been told people don’t know what I would classify as since my “manifesto” revolves around government structure as opposed to ideological vision of society.
Structure as in policy, or as in the actual framework of the system? In either case, it makes you more thoughtful on politics than almost anyone you’ll see posting about the topic online.
Porqué no las dos?
I’ve got your system of government I’ve got a method to prevent jurisdiction shopping and I’ve even got tax policy and reformed laws about using legal rights for the purpose of segregative action, IE using the threat of disownment as a tool to coerce a child out of marrying a person who’s gender or class or religion or ethnicity you disaprove of.
I mean shit look at my profile, the most recent original post is literally the rewrite of the US constitution I did.
A lot of anti Harris shit being spread on lemmy lately. Musk pay y’all too?
I would say it is more pro Marx than anti Harris. Or pro AOC if you want to be US centric
I’m all for that after the election.
I’m sure those undecided Pennsylvania and Ohio voters are in here watching with baited breath to see what political meme is posted next.
I’d never hope Harris were a clueless leftist. My god. Who would want that?
…Are you calling Marx clueless or am I tweaking right now?
Probably
Political spectrums are relative to the state being referenced, the time being discussed, and the scope of the given conversation. They are also idiosyncratic and not only on one or two axes.
This is all, of course, too complicated for the average “politically knowledgeable” online slacktivist.
I’m sure all of this anti-Harris sentiment will continue going (and even increase) directly after election day, right?
Above or below the shoulder joint?
