    To put it this way: TikTok, an short form video feed operated out of Beijing now and for its entire history, endorsed and thanked Donald Trump by name. They thanked him for saving the platform, which had voluntarily shut down before the election, before he was even inaugurated.

    And to illustrate the impact that action had: Donald Trump was the first Conservative to win the youth vote in decades, since 1988.

    Plus the former Russian intelligience operatives call him Agent Krasnov.

    Usually how it goes with Tankies. They start of with “oh these capitalist billionaires suck balls, amirite?” and then the next thing you know they’re trying to convince you to enlist to fight for Russia.

    NATO is always a great phrase to sort the wheat from the chaff. Any Anarchist or Democratic Socialist with two brain cells to rub together sees that a mutual defense pact just makes sense and has prevented war and will prevent further war. But Tankies? They fucking hate that shit with a burning passion, because it prevents expansion by Russia and China.

    Liberalism is the advocacy for human rights and freedoms so long as they don’t impede upon the rights and freedoms of others. In practice it requires a democratic state to enforce equal treatment and freedoms. Examples such as making slavery and segregation illegal, taxing inheritance and estates, mandating equal housing and employment opportunity, or covering the expenses of impoverished citizen’s medical and education.

    It’s had the similar definition of “promotes freedom” for thousands of years and in early 20th century France the words liberalism and neoliberalism were commonly used to describe a system of fair and regulated markets distinctly distant from laissez-faire and socialism.

    The most common opponents to Liberalism and Liberals are Tankies, who support eastern bloc dictatorships, and Conservatives, who support western bloc dictatorships. Because of this I automatically assume people who use liberal or neoliberal as a slur are opponents of human rights.
