I'm hoping this doesn't start a fight, I'm just curious what the political orientation is of this community. I grew up in a liberal (in the American sense) family, and I identify now as a socialist, though a lot of the liberalism I grew up in has stuck with me, like interest in LGBTQ and women's rights, environmentalism, etc. Wondering where people here land?
So you're one of those people who likes China and North Korea's governments?
I guess, though I have extensive critiques of both. I'm probably closest to Cuba, given my Carribean heritage and actually helping the local community outreach program.
Ah okay, was just wondering what you meant by tankie. Usually don't see ML's identify as tankie.
Come from a shitposting background, so fairly used to couching everything in ironic terms :P
Everyone certainly calls us tankies. Some of us choose to own the term.
Tankie here. Unironic use of the term proves a person's status as a big baby.
We’re people who have gone beyond reading CIA-approved sources wrt those governments.
I'm imaging a Ferengi saying "so you're one of those people who likes the Federation?"
