What's a Tankie? (lemmy.world)

I keep hearing the term in political discourse, and rather than googling it, I'm asking the people who know better than Google.

You never had any points, and lied whenever I brought any up specifically to avoid engaging with mine. I brought up that they bolded the point about the left needing to demolish NATO, the IMF, etc. as a means to show that this is ideologically incompatible with Lemmy.world. You lied, even in face of photo evidence, to avoid answering my question on why they did that. It's dishonest, and is why there's no point in arguing with points you raise because you won't take any response seriously.

Wrong.

and lied whenever I brought any up

Also wrong.

avoid answering my question on why they did that

Wow, wrong again. And again. And again.

You lied, even in face of photo evidence

Wrong too.

It’s dishonest, and is why there’s no point in arguing with points you raise because you won’t take any response seriously.

Cute grandstanding.

I've answered your question and invited you to respond to that answer several times now. But you've just continued to dodge. But sure, you're the pinnacle of serious, honest debate.

No, you directly lied in the face of evidence and claimed no bolding happened. You're fully aware of the absurdity of your replies, any treatment of your "points" as anything other than the trolling they've been would be fruitless.

Not a single person has agreed with you here.
