    This is surprisingly funny for satire, which I hope it is.

      One hopes, but the depths of mankind’s stupidity never ceases to amaze…

      I remind you that InfraHaz and his schtick exist. At least TheYankeeTankie is now an unironic fash.

        Other way around - stethoscope theory was made in response to horseshoe theory.

        Too articulated to be real. If this were written like a Trump tweet* it would be more realistic. *more: SAD! ALL CAPS! misspelings and run on rambling

          idk, tankies are generally pretty capable of being verbose. I wouldn’t count it out.

            For real, every time they post something it feels like they’re trying to hit a word count for a paper they are over-due for.

              It’s like they pull up ChatCCP at 11:38pm the night it’s due and tell it to write them a 2000-word essay about “how the didactic materialism of imperial hegemony irrevocably leads to bourgeois exploitation of the Global South”.

              It’s posturing, generally. Like Jordan Peterson fans. “Verbosity = intelligence = correct”. They so very desperately want to be taken seriously.

              Or like listening to a corporate executive’s speech, where they twist themselves in knots to use all the current buzzwords. “Dialectical analysis,” check. “Progressive role,” check. “Material conditions,” check. “Critical support,” check. “Something something Nazis,” check.

        Poe’s law says that it might not be, or some tankie will take it seriously.

    Why do I get the feeling he’s using bankers to stand in for a different group…

    I blame this on Ulysses Grant. As a general and then as a president, Grant should have spat on Lee’s face and decimated the south, not gone easy on them. The South and anyone with this poster’s views should have been stamped out and executed

      Grant all but crushed the South, destroying the first KKK and implementing the first anti-segregation laws. It’s after Grant’s presidency things went downhill.

    It’s always the “bAnKErs” at least he got the anti-semitism part of tankie-ism right
