OK chief, let’s try it easier. What actual communists that have existed are not tankies, according to you?
Because my library socialist/ Titoist ass is called one constantly for saying such radical things as “the US shouldn’t be excused for their constant war crimes”.

I say that too. I’ve never once been referred to as a tankie.
A tankie is hard to define, but generally someone who is unapologetic when it comes to what russia and china do.
What is “unapologetic”? Like pointing out that the US is constantly is launching wars of aggression, while China hasn’t been in a war since the 70s?
There’s a big false equivalence that liberals want to make between the US and other large powers, that if ores the scope and frequency of US lawlessness.
Yeah, and that’s why this is nonsense. “All things are only good or bad, and anything that is bad and communist is tankie. And, funny enough, I don’t seem to mind bad when it’s not communist”
It’s just coincidence that it’s used against all communists then?
all communists? That’s a very big sample size

What about ism, like you just exemplified isn’t even a requirement but happens alot.
It’s not whataboutism when people are making false equivalencies.
It is when two things can be bad.

“Two things, whataboutism” reddit
