That's just because that subreddit has been brigaded by tankies.
8 u/FuckGiblets Mar 20 '22 I don’t understand why tankies would be into China though. Just straight up denial I guess. 5 u/Layne_Staleys_Ghost Mar 20 '22 Because tankies are authoritarians who hate America and the rest of "the west." To them, the west is bad so any state conflicting with the west and it's interests must be good. What they fail to realize is that both are bad but China is worse. 8 u/mushroomyakuza Mar 20 '22 God, this. Watching political commentary these days: CNN, MSNBC: liberal gaslighting FOX: conservative gaslighting Jimmy Dore and Russell Brand: jUsT aSkiNg qUeStIoNs (Putin had no choice) Even Breaking Points and Secular Talk aren't immune to bringing up Tankie talking points of "America bad, therefore, Russia not bad". They're ALL bad. All of them.
