left wing and right wing are the wrong qualifiers here. even the two-dimensional political compass is oversimplified but the auth/lib axis is a hell of a lot more accurate in this case than the left/right axis. (and i’m not here to defend right wingers, but tankies specifically have this stick in their ass.)
but yes, tankie bullshit is the same as alt-right bullshit, just under a different flag, and a somewhat different plan on what to do with the world once they install their dictators and wipe the undesirables.
Yeah, it’s something else reading on a Lemmy instance, under a hammer and sickle how the worst thing Putin does is “transphobia”. And how the west is doing lying propaganda because Kinzhal could never be intercepted by the inferior Patriot.

The Lemmy grad types defend right wing regimes. They’re just anti west.
Tankies are far right, though.

You are definitely mixing MLs up with nazbols.
Not everything bad is right wing. Take your unsavory elements, stop acting like they belong with others.
All commies are either authoritarians or are living in a fantasy world
Unless they decide to sacrifice you for their ideas.
These particular “leftists” are completely cool with Xi and Putin though.

I despise them saying “oH bUt wHat aBoUt zElensky” whenever there are any posts about the Ukrainian-Russian war. Whataboutism at it’s finest.
