It’s all they have! How dare you take their only argument from them! /s
You are 100% right though. It’s a ham fisted deflection technique. I will defend them from people outright calling them fascists. Because there is a difference. But they are both authoritarian and in the end do a lot of the same things. Which should be discouraged no matter their intentions.
Wow! It’s as if I have no love for failed systems and the totalitarian bullshit they breed. Fuck off, blyat. Tell your handler nobody’s buying this bullshit anymore.
The problem isn’t with the meme conflating tankies with fascists in authoritarianism, it’s with the usage of the word tankie to refer to anything left of liberalism, that’s when this meme doesn’t apply. Tankie in the original sense (i.e. Stalinist), sure.
yeee not quite horseshoe theory tho, is it?
after all, the meme is just pointing out that both conservatives and tankies are pro-authority. said nothing about left and right

Again spoken like a true lib: “everyone who doesn’t agree with me is a Putin bot!!” Check my profile for 10 seconds, you’ll see I’m actually Spanish.
If you oppose capitalism, communism and fascism, what system do you propose? Feudalism?
You’re the one calling me a lib, blyat. Eat my dirty asshole.
THERE IS NO LEFT AND RIGHT ONLY MASTER AND “THE LIBS”!
