    "Vaush is a pedophile", "Radical Liberal Vaush", "Vaush is a transphobe", are just some of the shit takes from victims of Vaush Derangement Syndrome are incapable of not spewing on a regular basis. This is a place to mock such dipshits and, hopefully, free them from the shackles of VDS.

    The folks at r/Enough_VDS_Spam surely sound like reasonable people :stalin-stressed:

    The amount of little vaushites I've seen seriously say "we need to reeducate tankies" while talking about left unity is sickening. Little Himmler Jr. twerps

      "Tankies are authoritarian, which is basically fascism, so we should round them up and re-educate them all" is certainly a take.

        Just pissing in the wind. Shit like this is what you say when you have absolutely no power to shape public policy, no real input into discourse, and no audience except the increasingly cynical and frustrated fellow-burnouts who are desperately looking for social cohesion.

        They're angry at "Tankies" because they've been told "You can get what you want, except there's a Tankie standing in your way" over and over again, to the point where they seriously believe it. Tankie doesn't mean anything to them, except "Obstructionist".

    What is it with Reddit leftists constantly feeling like they have to preemptively apologize for “tankies”?

      In the neurotic oscillation between the poles of their dualistic identity, RadLibs draw their authority from the disavowal of the figure(s) of violence and terror which supposedly stain our collective ideals for a new set of social organizations and relations to constitute our world, the exemplar of course being Stalin. This inevitably leads to the contradiction (although what is more contradictory than the mere name, Radical Liberal?) wherein the necessary disavowal of the crimes of Stalin (and Mao, the USSR, PRC...) becomes the grounds they must incessantly reconstitute in positing their claims - "here is our emancipatory vision for societal change which, unlike the totalitarian Tankie's, can avoid the pitfalls of revolutionary terror..." - the ghost of Stalin is thus fated to forever haunt them, despite, or rather because of, their neurotic clinging to a possibility of a return to purity from before our original sin. That's why Lenin Marx insisted that we not make excuses for our terror.

      Western Leftists have had to distinguish themselves from those evil MLs for decades now. "Tankie" is just the modern version of "Red".

    Antifastonetoss is a very liberal sub last time I checked. Anything anti Democrat was downvoted and Trump was the true picture of fascism. Not the US as a whole. It's an innocent democratic country that's being destroyed by the Republicans and Russians.

    I'm anarchist as they came and even I'm weary of places that advertises of being "anti-tankie" these days. So tired of these radlibs/vaushites

    i saw the meltdown of the antifastonetoss when it happend, all that it took was one anti-vaush post for the mods to do a purge and declare the sub anti-tankie

    I've seen a lot of subs that preach left-unity take anti-tankie stances (this usually just translates to anyone who is even slightly supportive of China or any socialist state) lately which I think is very telling as to which subreddits are either ops or modded by libs.

    The sooner y'all realize that V*sh is going to dominate online leftist discourse for the coming years, the more you can maintain your sanity. :agony-deep:

      V*sh is going to dominate online leftist discourse

      Fortunately he won't be affecting anything of any importance then

        And thus the pendulum swings backwards to "nothing online matters"

    So just peeking into the anti-talkie subs and you see a lot of people being overly defensive of the US. I get that some take the anti-imperialism angle too far, but caping for the US is probably the worst direction to take in response

    Telling that all of those subs are circlejerks and memes and not even like anarchist theory.
