    Unless they are willing to silence their own people’s dissent by deploying mechanized artillery, they aren’t tankies. End of story.

    I’m still so fucking mad that that’s the definition of tankie instead of something more relevant to the present like “simps and bootlickers of thinktanks”.

    And yes, according to the definition of tankie, ‘Dictator on Day One, and you’ll never have to vote again’ Donald Diaper-Dump Trump is MORE OF A TANKIE than anyone listed here. Especially when you realize that “putting the economy into the hands of an unelected cabal of insiders” (oligarchs) has effectively the same results as “putting the economy into the hands of an unelected cabal of insiders” (central planning committee).
