I didn’t say the definition was correct because Wikipedia says so, I said that’s how the word is normally defined, and the Wikipedia definition (which was the first thing that popped up) aligns with my experiences with how I’ve seen the word used. So when you say the word “tankie” includes anarchists, I’m wondering whose definition or what reasoning are you pulling from.
Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof. More specifically, the term has been applied to those who express support for one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republics, whether contemporary or historical. It is commonly used by anti-authoritarian leftists, including anarchists, libertarian socialists, left communists, democratic socialists and reformists to criticise Leninism, although the term has seen increasing use by liberal and right‐wing factions as well.
The only time I’ve seen it be applied to anarchists is when Reddit libs don’t like anyone left of them doing stuff like protesting, but normally the Wikipedia definition is how I see the word used.
uh no they’re not? Anarchists are about as anti-government as it gets
Edit: unless you mean liberals can’t tell the difference between different leftists
I’ve seen a lot of anarchists on Hexbear, lemmygrad is explicitly ML though
What about open source jobs and funding? Since it seems like most of them come from either FAANG or government unless my research is wrong.
I prefer LGBTQIA-bin, my computer was in the closet for 10 years so the git version takes too long to compile
Aren’t there places in Europe that do Street then Address # then City (I have to do this for OSMAnd)? That’s just as cursed as Month Day Year
It might think it’s a video embed or something, this seems like a security issue
Maybe they have a way to unblock major search engine crawlers but block it for everyone else now? I know Cloudflare was doing something similar for some bot protection mechanism, and this seems like something news outlets would want to do also.
Doesn’t NYT cut off most of the article now? I used to just be able to disable JS but that didn’t work anymore last I checked.
I see four Linux logos and one of them looks suspiciously out of place
I’ve read comments from people who start with a confusing statement seeming to use definitions of words that aren’t commonly accepted and when asked to explain their definition resort to ad hominem and topic switching rather than defending their point that their definition is a commonly accepted use of that word.
