Yeah it's called theory
Yea turns out not giving a shit what a bunch of liberals with so little political knowledge they call Bernie a communist think is basically a secret weapon.
Liberals use Tankie. Chuds use Woke. Horseshoe theory confirmed ?!?!
Why would tankie be shameful ? If someone gets called a tankie I can assume that person is cool and groovy. Even people who are low on the tankie scale are usually much better than the average lib. If anything getting called a tankie is a seal of approval.
To put it simple if you dont want to destroy the west and neoliberal hegemony what are you even doing ?
