    What makes me laugh about tankies, is that you support an ideology that stands in defiance of the freedoms you have. Including the freedom you have to chose who to support.

    Well said.

    I understand and respect looking up to the achievements of smaller communist states that actually care about their own citizens wellbeing and lack the desire to exploit foreign nations, but China, Russia, and North Korea aren’t in that list. Being a powerless citizen of the United States or other (non-EU) Western countries sucks, but it usually doesn’t suck as badly as being a powerless citizen of those three.
