Is it simply over-correcting in response to western anti-communist propaganda? I’d like to think it’s simply memeing for memes sake, but it feels too genuine.

    I always enjoy the tankie pivot from being the saviors of mankind to being the victims who couldn’t stand up to western bullying whenever the whim takes them, but I do wonder how you lot don’t get whiplash from the constantly changing narrative.

      Talk about a purely emotional analysis. You have no idea how it’s possible to go from winning to losing? Really? That’s just something that’s beyond you? I guess that’s what the commitment to prefigurative idealism does to a mind.

        that’s not what I said. but don’t worry, I know you’re not misconstruing what I said, tankies just don’t have reading comprehension. it isn’t your fault you’re an idiot.

          That’s sounds exactly like what you said. You don’t understand how the narrative could be that the USSR won the war to the USSR lost against the West. Maybe you use words differently. I’m open to it. Definitions are unjustified hierarchy. Explain what you mean.

          Or, you know, dig in deeper by not having anything of substance to say and just keep trying to win by virtue signalling. That works for your audience, too.

            Explain what you mean.

            no, I much rather prefer letting you remain in the dark. my words were plain english, if you’re not capable of understanding them then that’s a problem for you, not for me. besides, if I pointed out what you misunderstood, you might stop doing it, and as I said I always enjoy it.

            I will give your struggling intellect a hint though. read the whole fucking comment before you start furiously typing out a reply. dumbass.

                yeah, I didn’t think so.

                the best part of your comment chain here is you immediately did exactly what I mentioned. you’re just too fucking stupid to pick up on that, let alone see the irony. for a group that goes on and on about how people should read more theory, I think just reading at all would do you some good.

                might I recommend The Very Hungry Caterpillar? its about at your level.

                  I wish you all the best in your rage-induced commenting spree where you pretend to be smarter than people because they don’t accept your framing. Ta! See you around the other comments your chasing me down on.

                    if that’s what you need to say to convince yourself you’re not malding because somebody said mean things about your favorite homophobic dictator, then go on.
