Had some fun with this. Rules:
- 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.
- Watch the responses come in. Especially if the post is on the tankie triad.
- 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.
They’ll prove they’re more civil by saying something very dunkable, getting dunked on, and showing some exemplary discipline and intellectual honesty by simply not replying and going back to their zionazi community. You know, like they did yesterday when they claimed tank man was executed.
I find it frustrating how common an occurence it is for some asshole to wander into a public forum, declare an obvious untruth, ignore all well-meaning replies, only engage with low-effort dunks and typically to respond with some variation of “you like communism? don’t you even know about Tibet?” and then get indignant when they’re treated like the condescending jerks they are.
“But I didn’t say a single swear! That means I was polite, you have to respect me!”
“The CIA said so and all the white countries that are subservient to US interests agree so it MUST be true”
