minus-square@tetraodon@feddit.ithexbear1•edit-29 months agoGood good. Happy for you. But I struggle to see how Saito can be called a tankie when he's so critical of the Soviet Union and of historical communism. Or maybe we have fundamentally incompatible definitions of what is a tankie. Don't get me wrong: I like Saito's ideas. Are they going to happen? No. linkfedilink
