    And I really hate when “Leftists” roll up to a discussion about the merits of making a choice at the ballot box to snarkily tell people that the magical solution is actually to just do something that’s outside of their control.

    It’s really telling how many people got pissed off thinking this meme was about them just because it includes the word tankie. Start holding the people like the one in the meme accountable instead of making wild assumptions and hurling insults.

      I wonder why socialists who live under a government that did things like the Red Scare would be offended by people punching left than using derogatory terms for socialists like tankie.

      To be clear you should not punch left that’s something that fascists do.

        So you have nothing to say about Leftists pushing for Biden to lose to Trump, but god forbid someone uses the word tankie in a meme.

        Glad to see your priorities are in order.

            Literally a screenshot of it in the OP.

            Objection@lemmy.ml is also in this very thread, and pushing the same thing.

            Keep your eyes closed, I guess.
