Had some fun with this. Rules:

  1. When a tankie post comes up, post a legitimate, fair argument. Do not argue in bad faith. No matter how nasty the post may be. Legitimately combat the disinformation there by going into their bubble and posting a sane response.
  2. Watch the responses come in. Especially if the post is on the tankie triad.
  3. Don’t feed the trolls. Don’t respond to anything, unless there is actually a legitimate attempt to have a legitimate discussion. Otherwise, start a game of tankie bingo to help prevent yourself from responding to the madness.

Suggestions for expansion welcome.

    For many of those claims you could respond with a corresponding prolewiki article, at which point right-wingers would either immediately disappear or throw a thought-terminating dogmatic term at you before dipping. They are allowed to bring up claims fabricated by the consent manufacturing machine through some right-wing think tank or just completely pulled out of someone’s ass, but expect you to personally spend at least a 5:1 ratio in terms of effort and time to debunk their shit, no offloading allowed.
