I just don't understand tankies. They worship authoritarian dictators like Lenin, Marx, and Stalin, who each on their own, have killed more people than Hitler.
Like I get it, socialism sounds good in theory but it has never worked in the real world. I mean I'm as far left as they come but even I can see that if you try to do socialism, it always ends up becoming fascism, just by a different name. Real socialism is the Nordic model and we should be striving for that, I think. It's a tried and true method that obviously works. I tried talking about what Norway and Sweden are doing to one of those hexbear users and they just typed a wall of text about some dumb made up shit about the "global south", whatever that is. I've never heard of that term until I talked with them and I've taken several econ and political science classes at school.
Anyway, I think it's best we defed from them so we can focus on more important things like getting Kamala elected.
