    Yeah, ruling class is the enemy.

      I’ll never understand how tankies started simping for a fascist oligarchy, an Islamist theocracy, Hindu ultranationalists, and a fucking hereditary monarchy.

      China, okay fair enough, that at least is in line with tankiedom.

    I would definitely change the wording on this from naming the country, to referring to its people, because yeah, those states are enemies to their own people and to others, like all states (to varying degrees, but still), but we have more in common with an Iranian, Russian or Chinese individual than we do with a billionaire or even multi millionaire from any country

    Also there is no denying the class war is a vital one, but it is not the only one by a long shot, and class reductionism will only ever keep us from uniting to fight all of the wars that need fighting before we can be free (the war against white supremacy, the war against the patriarchy, the war against abled supremacy, the war against hetero-cis supremacy, and so on. If we only fight a class war, all of those remain, and those of us impacted will still be oppressed)

    Keep in mind that when you describe a country, you are usually describing the government, the system of rule, and thus the ruling class. Sure it’s not your ruling class, but it is a ruling class. So you still can’t trust them.

    Then there’s evidence of interference with politics as their ruling class tries to bring your country down to advance themselves. Thus making your local ruling class even worse.
