    I think it has nothing to do with the reasons they give, they just want to push western narratives of “righteousness”

    I’ve been to political rooms in blahaj before and the discussed politics always boil down to anti-conservatism and anti-russian/chinese imperialism,

    US imperialism? You’ll be called a tankie and told to stop acting like one to fit in

    Israel genocide? You’re regressing the progressiveness of empowering jews, stop being overly antisemitic and using tankie sources

    Some political news africa? Turn it about weather or not they support LGBTQ rights yet

    Riots in south america? Their governments are oppressing them, also stop using tankie sources

    There’s no way they can be this biased by coincidence, i’m not a tankie and i didn’t believe it at first but it’s true, Tankie do carry the burden of always being right!

      I mean they just ban everyone who can critically read the media and understand basic geopolitics. Of course the remainder will be imperial core national chauvinists, that’s the default in their countries.
