Ayn Rand vibes, “how dare they educate my family”
As tankies, we need to look honestly at the ways in which the Soviet education system failed Ms. Rand.
Like giving her the ability to write decent prose or believable characters (seriously, the woman had no idea of how an adjective is supposed to work).
Based deserved criticism of the USSR
lmao
I remember this and the egg monopoly lady. “my grandpa was an illetrate fascist” is not something to brag about. This guy’s awareness is nonexistent.
Every single egg in chhnia
Lol, evergreen post
It is funny, all my adult life I’ve been a leftist but never had much interaction with tankies because of how I was always taught that they were hypocrites and pseudo-fascists and so on…
But lurking lemmygrad and seeing “liberals”, who mostly don’t even know what that word means, getting repeatedly dunked on with actual sources and recommended reading has been a great eye opener to what ml actually stands for.
So please keep doing what you guys are doing, because even if who you are responding to runs away after getting an elaborated answer, there will always be people like me that are actually trying to learn something and will appreciate the response.
this how these dastardly tankies get you, next thing you know you’re cackling as you drive tanks through people’s walls
Can confirm
help i drove a tank through my own wall by accident
Communists that you find on internet are not just 13 year olds from america, there is a world out there you libs/conservatives from americkkka. It is really funny you guys still make this joke. Communists comes in different age, colour, from different countries. It is not a phase in the life of rebellious children from your country. So please don’t come here to infantilize us.
Hey, the CPC has 90 million active members but they must all be naive, idiotic children, right? Truly they are too stupid to understand that our Western ideology is far more superior.
Here’s why the CPC aren’t true communists tho sweaty
Ironically most Chinese people would fall under the Okay category
What does “active members” mean? That number seems kind of low for a country of 1.4 billion
being a member of the CPC comes with duties and other obligations because you represent the state. For example you should be married before joining or at least in a relationship because they don’t want you to date around due to the power implications (you being a member and the people you date not being members).
It’s not like joining a party in liberal democracies where you just pay the dues and then do whatever.
Thanks for the explanation! That makes much more sense now.
I don’t fully know what it entails but the CPC has 98 million party members. For a population of 1.4 billion that seems low, but you have to remember that not every single person has the ambition to be politically involved. Many people just live their lives without being member of a political party. And even then, almost 1 in 14 people being member of the biggest party in the country is pretty massive.
Because there are very high standards to join t he CPC. Even Xi Jinping failed initially when he was trying to join
He failed several times, actually. Yet he never waned or gave up.
But random attacks on the character of their enemy is the only way they know how to dismiss a position that disagrees with theirs! What else could they possibly do other than call us names? If they actually listened to us they might realise we have something to say.
That’s it. The only way to remain an anti-communist is to refuse to read communist literature. Anyone who reads communist theory will either become a communist or know that communists are right (and become a figure like McCarthy).
Which is why they have so many traps and mental safety nets designed to push people away from socialism and reading communist literature. The lib will have a million excuses to never actually pick up a book.
For people that have been waiting for systemic change for decades by calmly ticking a box on a ballot you guys sure seem to not have that much patience
WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT’S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN, SHUT UP YOU TANKIE 😤😤😤
Oh I feel something trickling down I can tell ya… And I would have it checked out at the doctor’s office if I could afford it 😤
Let them come. every lib dunked on is a moral victory, keep up the good work comrade DankZedong!
I read that in Optimus Prime’s voice.
Damn, they’re charging headlong into machine gun fire. And I thought meat shield suicide armies only existed in fiction.
There were a few occasions when the Romanian fascists machine‐gunned retreaters.
Officers often threatened to shoot cowards, and commanders sometimes even ordered “blocking detachments” to machine gun soldiers who retreated, though this was rarely followed through with.
(Source.)
Oh, hey, Enemy at the Gates was projection after all! Who woulda thunk.
blocking detachments
According to Russell Bentley, the Ukrainian government was doing this during the 2015-2018 period of the war in Donbass. The regular army was incredibly demoralized – they were fighting against a determined and heroic enemy, who in the battle of Donetsk Airport took down Ukrop observation towers not with artillery, but with machine gun fire trained for days at the base – and to keep these conscripts from retreating, Azov and Aidar troops were kept stationed in their rear.

The joke continues to tell by itself on this post 😂
Reminiscent of the self referential in r/TheDonald where they thought they would ‘own’ liberals…
Same people kids, different flag.
Horseshoe theory understander has entered the chat
Only people on lemmygrad are naval gazing children.
Its all fun and games to some one coops your circle jerk.
Says the one from lemmy.world, HAHA.
I don’t even know wtf I’m looking at.
read theory…
Maybe make it more generic to really be cryptic. Literacy vs libs
Who’s libs? no idea. Reading what? still no idea. Why basketball is involved, cause kids like to ball.
I’ve always wondered why dunks were considered a big deal. They happen several times a game and are the same amount of points. Is that in theory somewhere? I’m lost by everything in this meme
In case anyone actually has some of these questions:
We’re a Marxist-Leninist instance, which means we’re communists.
Libs refers to people who follow liberalism, which applies to both the US’ Democratic Party and the Republican Party.
Theory refers to Marxist theory. We’re often famous for telling people to read things…
The basketball is because memes are way better than making a paragraph explaining like this.
Thanks for being the only one to actually explain anything
We get a lot of trolls from other instances, so some of these questions made people think you were doing it to troll us
I really hope this comment is some weird meta joke that I just don’t understand.
Yeah, because I’m sure American internet politicians are 100% serious and basketball is just a kid’s game. For a guy who thinks any progress is good, you seem to be pretty intent on keeping that progress as low as possible.
Aww someone’s upset their cryptic toilet tier meme meant for a hyper niche group isn’t understood. :(
DJT levels of fragile all up in here. Good luck spreading your ideals with confusing messaging and snarky comments.
>mfw when i don’t get a joke that i am not supposed to get
It’s a good thing if conservatives can’t understand our memes
