There& #39;s folks who follow me for my critiques of the Dirtbag Left & there& #39;s folks who follow me for my critiques of tankies/Grayzone. I& #39;d appreciate it if those that follow me for the latter would stop calling the former "tankies." They& #39;re not tankies, theyre nationalist socdems
Multiple things can be bad at once & it obfuscates the discourse when you boil down all the bad shit coming out of the left as "tankies." The facts just don& #39;t add up in that regard:
And part of fascist creep into left spaces rests on adopting good positions to mask their reactionary beliefs. For tankies, its anti-imperialism. For Dirtbags like Sean, its supporting Bernie Sanders & his internationalist foreign policy. This is how they gain legitimacy.
Even straight up fash do this. Materially speaking, groups like Atomwaffen have killed more cops in the past 5 years than anti-capitalists have. But you& #39;re not gonna see any anarchists claiming ACAB solidarity with them. Please actually research these different factions, thanks.
Oh, and if you follow me precisely because I shit on both without being campist one way or the other then I consider you one of my mufos. You& #39;re all dope
