    Support the wrong dictatorship. You’re only supposed to support the American one.

      In thoery we shouldn’t support any dictatorships at all. But the average tankie poster will bend over backwards to fellate a dictator if they oppose the US.

        It would be great if we could only support countries that were 100% good all the time, but tankies support countries that oppose the US even if they’re far from good because they recognize that no socialist revolution of any kind is possible until US hegemony is broken.

          Plenty of the countries they support certainly claim to be socialist, but end up just being authoritarian dictatorships with a different name
