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.
Half of these you could sub with “has evidence for claims” and the other “wants to force me to read”
Every time I see liberals complaining that the evil tankies want to make them read, the supposed reeducation that they accuse commies of forcing our ideological opposition through seems like a good idea and something they really need.
I hate “everyone is twelve” as a political situation analysis, but goddamn do these people sound like schoolkids who don’t want to do their required reading.
