Russia isn't communist.
Tell that to the tankies that simp Russia.
If you simp a capitalist dictatorship, you aren't communist and therefore not a tankie. A tankie is someone who supports dictatorship of the proletariat for implementing communism, not dictatorship for capitalism (ie fascism).
You're expecting intelligent consistency from tankies. They completely miss the forest for the trees.
Aren't those people just Russia simps?
I discussed above
A Dictatorship of the Proletariat doesn’t equal tankie.
And if they can't/won't tell the difference?
Indeed, that makes it even stranger. I think it's often just that USA bad so Russia good.
Neither is China or North Korea or Cuba.
