Oh, I thought it was an oblique reference to Tiananmen Square incident.

Nah, first used to mock those of a British Communist Party who fully supported Stalin etc, and saw a big surge in those who supported the Soviet's crushing of the Prague Spring uprising and Hungarian revolution.

The hell is a "Tankie"?

People who believe violent, armed, fascist forces should be met with resistance rather than appeasement. e.g. the Soviets vs. the rest of the eventual, begrudging Allies in the years leading up to WWII.

So people have basically been calling you a defender of the world, a champion against fascism? Oh the egg on their faces.

Delirious_Beard is trying to feed you misinformation, dont swallow that.

Tankies are what I said they are those who support defending ourselves against violent fascists. D_B seemingly would prefer you appease the fascists, no matter the cost to the average person. The most and only important thing to him and his ilk is preserving their comfortable lifestyle, nothing more.

Ah yes, the violent fascists such as the... oh, the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia. Well then.

What are you referring to, precisely, when you write that?

You know what I'm talking about. What was the Soviet Union defending against when they sent troops into Prague to stop the reforms? Was Alexander Dubek a secret fascist?

This is 100% bullshit and you know it. Anyone can look up the definition and where it comes from, so take your genocide defending, dictatorship worshiping shit elsewhere.

In 2016, an international tribunal in The Hague ruled that the killings constitute crimes against humanity and it also ruled that the United States and other Western governments were complicit in the crimes.[36] Declassified documents published in 2017 confirm that not only did the United States government have detailed knowledge of the massacres as they happened, it was also deeply involved in the campaign of mass killings.[37]

and the hague disagrees

I like how you only addressed the definition of tankies (which youre still wrong about) and not the fact youve denied a genocide multiple times
