I’m guessing they did this because my comment didn’t have the correct positive vibes for them on their post when they’re the moderator.

It’s funny because 196 and almost all of its derivatives are rightfully anti-tankie because tankies promote centrism and conservatism directly harmful to trans and gay rights.

    YDI, a quick google search before commenting would’ve cleared this up.

          Hindsight is 20/20 but I don’t think there is ever a good reason to ban anti-tankie sentiments.

            Sure there is. Wherein anti-tankies overlap with fascists.

            You don’t drive out red fash by inviting in the regular variety. “There was an old woman who swallowed a fly” energy.

                “Cultural Marxism” refers to a far-right antisemitic conspiracy theory that misrepresents Western Marxism (especially the Frankfurt School) as being responsible for modern progressive movements, identity politics, and political correctness.

                  Thing is, Tankies end up promoting the Far Right. So that’s not really a good argument.

                  Tankies claim Marxism but from their actions consequentially promote none of its ideals.

                  To oppose Tankies is truly Left and anti-authoritarian.

                    But not all opponents of tankies are left OR anti-authoritarian. Like, you know, far-right antisemites. Thus, far-right antisemites and the like express anti-tankie sentiments which, nonetheless, should be removed.

                    Is this really that hard?
