      A tankie, an anarchist, and a demsoc were all lost in the desert. They found a lamp and rubbed it. A genie popped out and granted them each one wish. The anarchist wished to be back home. Poof! She was back home. The demsoc wished to be at home with her family. Poof! She was back home with her family. The tankie said, "Awwww, I wish my friends were here."

      (this is the first joke I found when I googled 'blond jokes')

        Why did the tankie woman's bellybutton hurt? Her boyfriend was a tankie too

        The punchline is that neither of the other two reappear and get to stay at home

      Damn straight. Chapo was only good because you got a nice mix of everybody shitposting together

    It's mostly because the users here are much more online than the reddit

      Makes sense. There were probably enough Bernie libs who dipped their toes into the sub occasionally who wouldn't bother registering on another site.

    The discord taught people stuff like when we did theory readings or mass disseminated online books. Honestly, the discord has more free pdfs than most places on the web. "Tankies" aren't really a thing, tho some MLs refer to themselves as such jokingly.

      You should step up and correct the record then, I notice more "fuck Dengists" and idealist talking points than actual analysis about the issues in the struggle session posts
