I’m not sure I’ve seen any evidence of it existing though, is it just a Boogeyman, or so something that happened a while back? An in joke of some sort?

    Tankie now means the same as Nazi — “a person with a political view I don’t like”.

    There are actual neo-Nazis — yes, I mean people who venerate Hitler, use Nazi Party symbols, advocate antisemitism and genocide — actively involved in politics in many countries, including the US, Germany, and Russia. Do you deny this?

      I’ve noticed this interrogative style more and more in my runs in with the woke, both offline and online.

      So my question to you is — what the fuck do you think you’re doing?

      This doesn’t make you look strong or confident. It makes you sound like a soyboy.

        Using “woke” as a negative and using the term “soyboy” at all are both huge red flags.

        Gives off “alpha male” incel vibes.
