Not really, i see tankies in this space constantly praise China and Russia for their ability to “control” their people.
Tankies come off as authoritarian lap dogs who claim to be communists or socialists but have lost sight of what society those beliefs are supposed to support.
If they don’t want to be seen this way they should behave differently.
Nobody praises “China and Russia for their ability to control their people.” These people do not exist, they are ghosts and strawmen you are fighting.
I see them pretty often around the fediverse
Their profiles are usually from hexbear or ml
Not a single one of them praises “China and Russia for their ability to control their people.” You’re inventing ghosts and strawmen to fight.
