    What does that mean? Do they actually want Charlie Hebdos, as in people that aren’t scared to make irreverent cartoons of Mohammed? Or they want people like Charlie Hebdo to get the same response from the Muslim community? There’s a difference.

      I too am intrigued why tankies would support islamic fundamentalists murdering leftist french journalists… Doesn’t add up… My only guess (beyond the general mental illness tankies display) is that French colonialism fucked up cultures around the world for centuries — across south America, Africa, and Asia — and they still hold political and military control over a few of them… But why cheer islamic terrorism? Why cheer the murder of leftist journos?

        Tankies are very simple things. They operate by US bad

        If something, like jihadists, says the US is bad, then the Tankies will support them.

        until…

        They are reacting to this comic from ‘Liberation’ newspaper last year about the genocide in Gaza during Ramadan:

        The woman in a hijab is slapping the hand of an emaciated Gazan chasing after a rat, presumably to catch and eat it, and saying “Not before sunset”

        They’re leftists but not the right kind of leftists. That makes them deserving of being murdered in the tankies’ eyes.

      They want to kill – Or rather, like classic rich college kids, they want others to kill for them. They will thankfully never do anything violent, all bark.

        (Well, actually, watch out for them IRL on a smaller level. They very well may be violent, abusive people that will hurt you, or participate in SLA style politicial violence, it’s just that no “revolution” is ever going to happen.

        And before someone says it, no I didn’t say they all are, just that they can be.)
