    Am I supposed to turn the other cheek when someone insults me, shithead? lol Why don’t you follow your own advice, then

    didn’t feel bad about the dumb “tankie” label you assigned them

    They said they were tankies themselves. Do you not read? LOL They were defending themselves for being tankies and memeing aobut it and were full-on apologetic about all these shit countries and citing their favorite authors. How is that making molehills? Explain it. You’re so full of it yourself, you don’t even know. If I’m “crying” what are you doing then, hypocrite.

      You don’t understand. They took on the tankie label to own it instead of letting people like you use it as some unrecoverable insult. Just like how in US politics, being called a commie is so poisonous that politicians do anything to avoid the label. If instead there were politicians who were fine with calling themselves communist, it’d lose its power. You really need to calm down. All this rage is preventing you from understanding simple concepts and also it’s bad for your health.
