Dunking on tankies from a leftist (anti-capitalist) perspective. A tankie is someone who defends/supports authoritarian/ totalitarian regimes under the guise of socialism. The term originated from those who supported the 1956 invasion of Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays, most tankies are terminally online genocide-deniers who fall heavily for the state propaganda coming from their beloved regimes.

Combatants for Peace, Women Wage Peace, Shovrim Shtika, Parents Circle Families Forum, Other Voice, Mistaclim (aka looking the occupation in the eye), Zazim, are a few
