i’ve read marx. at precisely no point does he say anything justifying the various atrocities state capitalist countries have committed. i think he’s wrong about some stuff, but even if you accept that his word is gospel, tankies are still just people who took leftist principles as an excuse for the imposing the kind of brutal authoritarianism that leftists are supposed to be against.

Exactly. Blaming individuals for systemic problems never gets you anywhere. If you can reduce your car dependency, sure, do that, but don’t beat yourself up if you can’t.

Not a subscriber yet, but I might become one after I finish Fantasy High.

Tankies are just right-wingers who simp for different countries.

As someone who is far, far left, I just want to say that Lemmygrad doesn’t represent us all. The libertarian left is very different.
