I forgot to set a reminder so I'm a little late getting to this, but here we are again:

Are you a "tankie"?

Respond "yes" or "no", I'll collate results later

This process is being undertaken to determine if so-called "tankies" are conspiring to make you (yes, you) have a bad time on the internet!

vague or informal answers will be interpreted by the central authority (me). Only top level comments will be counted. I will not be providing further instructions or clarifications.

I'll likely check back in a week, my old pc died so itll take a little bit of time to prettify the results and write a report

Ciao, and of course, imperialism must be destroyed.

Feminists aren't alienating a whole group of society, said group is alienating itself by rejecting real and valid critique of the oppression of women. I'm not alienated from feminism, and women do care about me. We can call it done if you want, but I'm still going to disagree.

Again, we are back at the same talking point.

Why is me the man supposed not to feel insulted by this? And me the Muslim supposed to feel insulted by this?

They are the same sentences, just with different subjects. This very stupid "You're only allowed to say X to a certain group of people" will make that very same group of people look at you and walk off. Right now you're only justifying that because the net is so wide you shouldn't get caught in it.

My principle is don't be an asshole. Not, don't be an asshole "to suppressed people". Me following my principle has taken me away from feminism as they're simply treating me wrong and misrepresenting the group I'm a part of. I made those comments to call out the hypocritical in it and I got hit with more hypocrisy. So yeah, I'm allineated all right

No, they are calling attention to systemic oppression of women and you are taking it personally.
