People will associate AuthLeft hate with being "terminally online" (which really is a testament to where/what most tankies are spending their time on and, for that reason, I don& #39;t see them as any kind of threat either). That being said, the problem lies...

1/
not in whatever "actions" they plan irl, because we know they don& #39;t, but instead that genocide denial is usually seen by the left as a difference of opinion, rather than the erasing of entire peoples, cultures, and struggles from history...

2/
You would not associate yourself with someone who denied the holocaust, why should this be the exception? Especially when these are also well documented historical events. It shouldn& #39;t fly. This is also to say nothing of the blatant "x get the wall" remarks...

3/
that you see everywhere as well, as if it isn& #39;t a parallel to many atrocities the right has committed. If you aren& #39;t committed to restorative, non-punitive forms of justice you are not/should not be welcome here. The same goes for the genocide denial.

4/
You& #39;ll see tankies side with almost any nation that is in opposition to the US, regardless of what they& #39;ve done/did and, in the same breath, accuse others of having a purely "western outlook" as if supporting anyone fighting the US in itself isn& #39;t western/America-centric.

5/
Before I rant and go into thousands of nuances (that aren& #39;t really that nuanced) about how the AuthLeft is absurdly hypocritical and harmful to the rest of us, in the past or in the present, my thesis here is: stop allowing tankies to bring their hate into our spaces.
