!asklemmy@lemmy.ml - ARE YOU A TANKIE? - informal poll results ~ 2025

😱

This process was undertaken to determine if so-called “tankies” are conspiring to make you (yes, you) have a bad time on the internet!

vague or informal answers were interpreted by the central authority (me). Only top level comments were counted. I did not provide further instructions or clarifications.

A ridiculous question. “Tankie” isn’t a term anyone self-identifies with, it’s mostly a term used by liberals to hurl at anyone to the left of them or anyone who agrees with western foreign policy. The survey results will be as meaningless as the term “tankie” itself.

^ wish I’d remembered to include that in the new “poll”, there was a lot of confusion in the comments!
