powerful "leopards eating faces" energy from the tankies. I wish them luck with the anti-communist death squads outlined in project 2025

They're Tankies, their entire ideology is feline face eating based. Russia SO KNOWN for how well it treats minorities and LGBT people!

Tankie in 1956: Getting into your T-90 and driving across the Hungarian border to brutally suppress an uprising of (coughnationalcough) socialists protesting Soviet occupation

Tankie in 2024: Getting into your PSA Bronto and doing donuts in your neighborhood cul de sac blaring "Don't Vote for Joe Biden" out of a megaphone, until police show up and drag you off to prison for violating a noise ordinance.

This is historically incorrect. The T-90 didn't enter service until 1992. They would have gotten into T-54/55s or T-44. Possibly even T-34s?

Wish the people emulating (knowingly or unknowingly) the ideology of Ernst Thälmann would look a little harder at how that worked out for both Germany and him.

The thing is, i promised my mom and my history teacher id never vote for a genocider, so my hands are tied. If dems want to run someone who isnt the literal definition of evil, i wouldnt have to vote for trump. Its insane how dems love to use the lesser evil argument right up until theyre convincing us to vote for a genocider.

I thought tankies live in countries like China and Russia.

Can you define US tankies please?
