“Vanilla” tankies that think Hitler is good? Nah, not really.

However…

Imo the real problem lies with the fact the lines between ”average authleft ML”,“tankie”, and “nazbol” are breaking down (having never been super strong to begin with).

It’s super easy now for someone getting into statist leftist politics to become convinced they have to engage in genocide denial and personality cultism to be a “true leftist“ by fermenting in a space like genzedong of communism101 for instance. From there, they actually start believing the reverberating group-think they’re constantly exposed to, and start spreading it. The meme grows stronger, the chuds more radical, and the newbie progresses further down the pipeline towards sitting in PCM all day going off about white replacement and cultural decline under the “auth-center” tag. This is how you get ppl calling Tucker Carlson a socialist.
