minus-squareTar_Alcaran@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up41·16 days agoThe Tankies are pretty conservative, even if they’ll never admit it.
minus-squareZomg@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up15·16 days agoYeah I kinda have started to understand the whole horseshoe theory thing.
minus-squarezxqwas@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·16 days agoIn what meaning of the word? They seem to not favour small government and deregulated economy.
minus-squareBaŝto@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up15·16 days agoI wouldn’t view small government as conservative tbh, but I’m not from the US. Ultimately it’s a relative term, relative to the status quo. Wikipedia defines it as preserve traditional institutions, customs, and values Seems the word tankies is used for authoritarian socialists/communists. I personally would view authoritarianism as a rather conservative thing.
