    This makes sense.

    I do think “tankie” is the wrong word, as “bootlicker” sounds more apt since Russia hasn’t been communist since '91.

    As in, these devs are definitely authoritarian, but communist? Absolutely not.

      They’re definitely all about the communism too. I answered a post asking for any surviving examples of communism with “I think Cuba counts” and got banned Rule 1 IIRC.

        That’s… distinctly NOT being about actual communism… that’s about being pro tankie propaganda…
