Germany's tankie party died quicker than I anticipated 🙃
@karolherbst calling bsw "tankie" for what i assume is their more critical take on the involvement of the west in the war on ukraine is funny.
"tankies" used to mean actual communist the ones supporting the progressive decolonial movements, not a shitty reformist conservative social democratic party.
@terminallydied nah tankies are people who deny any wrong doing of the soviet union, e.g. being imperialistic while saying it can't be imperialistic, because it's not the US...
@karolherbst then the bsw still doesnt fit your definition
@terminallydied haven't heard them saying that Russia's attack was due to Russian imperialism 🤷
@karolherbst russia =/= soviet union lol
regardless of wether or not bsw acknowledges russian imperialism lets not pretend thats not the main stream opinion in europe while critical voices of europes and to extend natos own involvement on the russian invasion of ukraine are silenced
