Tankie Bingo! - sh.itjust.works
sh.itjust.works
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. EDIT: well, to the surprise of no one, it’s made its way to the slop community at Hexbear. Aaaand again, they totally miss the glaringly obvious point.

    I was wondering if it was trying to insult tankies through the bingo card, or if it was saying that tankies use these argument points themselves

    I mean, I could place way more valid bingo spots, these people couldn’t even do 10 minutes of research in the news mega to find what they dislike?

      it’s because they get agitated from questioning their worldview. there’s a distinct feeling in the pit of their stomach that tells them to stop reading. sometimes you can tell because they’ll dismiss an argument out of hand or they’ll say “read a book” or “i have better things to do than this”. i know because i used to be a shitlib and i had to learn to push past that feeling before i could be a marxist. anyway they can’t ever learn anything about us until they learn to ignore that feeling when they have to
