Mainly because my actual knowledge is simply to small to contribute
See, an actual tankie would never admit to having limitations on their own personal knowledge and understanding.
But I am a socialist and I have been called a tankie several times
I’m a socialist too and tankies have called me a fascist because I believe in democratic-socialism instead of bolshevism. They clearly don’t know what fascism is.
I’ve seen enough of your comment history, you go around spreading liberal talking points and pro empire/war progranda. You’re not a socialist, you may have some socialist ideals you’re developing, and I hope you read more, but your current arguments do more harm than good for the working class.
Not even a little bit, I’m just not afraid to disagree with tankies who are shilling for dictators just because they happen to be anti-west dictators. Apparently to the average tankie, that makes me a “liberal fascist,” whatever that is, or a zionist or an imperialist apologist or a genocide supporter or all those other things that I’m not but tankies like accusing everyone who isn’t a tankie of being.
I do plenty of calling out western dictators too. I can be anti-maga and anti-tankie. That’s something tankies can’t seem to wrap their heads around.
I use the word tankie a lot because there are a lot of tankies on the internet. I suppose a tankie would think that’s overusing it though. Tankies overuse words like “capitalist shitlib,” “zionist,” “fascist,” “western imperialist,” and “genocide apologist.” Those things are all deserving of critique, but I’m none of those things. And if tankies don’t stop throwing them around like meaningless insults, then they’re gonna lose their meanings and get treated like meaningless insults.
I’ve already had people tell me to stop hyperbolizing while talking about actual fascists, because people are so worn down by tankies calling everyone and their mother a fascist just for being closer to the center than a bolshevik.
I never said “I’m socialist because I’m anti-maga.” I’m socialist, and I’m anti-maga.

Lol you’re not a socialist, you’re a liberal.
You don’t know shit about me, so you aren’t in a position to decide what I am.

You overuse the word tankie. Being only anti maga doesn’t make you a socialist, it makes you a liberal.
