    Conservatives don’t agree with things. Conservatives agree with people.

    And tankies are conservatives. It’s not a political ideology. They’re tribalists whose chosen ingroup is anyone doing leftist signalling. Same pattern of behavior as screeching for liberty and freedom while installing a king.

    Tankies are the kind of people who would definitely sell their soul for Trump if they had read another single blog post few years ago.

    Am I missing something? Aren’t tankies just ancap? Also what is Trump saying that is anti capitalism?

        I guess my question is more, what is Trump saying that is the same as Tankies? Trump isn’t anti Capitalist.

            Putin is definitely a dictator who started the war, and invaded Ukraine.

            But doesn’t every country have the right to defend itself? (Not that Russia is ‘defending itself’ in this case)

              I don’t know why you’re asking a question that you answered. Yes they do, but that’s not what Russia is doing. That’s their excuse and it makes no sense. Ukraine has a right to defend itself. Russia is invading.

      Ancap is anarcho-capitalism, e.g. screw the government, stateless society where capitalism is king. Not entirely the tankie viewpoint.

      “Not even close, babyyyyyyy.” They might claim some different underlying beliefs, but in practice, just like Libertarians, they’re just conservatives trying to hide the fact that they’re conservatives by cosplaying as other groups.

      AnCaps are idiots that accept the Austrian school of economics.

      Tankies are in general poorly educated leftists with limitied logical processing skills.

      Tankies supposedly oppose capitalism, and they only support anarchism when it’s in the West.

      The term is derived from those who sided with the tanks when the USSR rolled into towns and later when the CCP sent the military on their own citizens during an event that resulted in millions of deaths across their nation. You know, “communists” but without any power in the hands of the workers.

    Tankies have been anti-NATO since 1949. It has nothing to do with the Red v. Blue spectacle.

      So if and when the US is no longer a member of NATO, the Tankies will openly support Trump?

        A lot of them already openly support Trump and promoted him actively on Hexbear and Lemmygrad before the election.

      Nah some dipshits back Russian imperialism like their forefathers backed Soviet imperialism. Thus there are tankies who agree with Trump vis a vis Ukraine even if they disagree on when and whom it is ok to be racist towards.

          You can find people on some instances that feel Russia had a right to resist Western encroachment in their border which ignores the whole invading bit.
