They often opt to use the nomenclature ‘Communist Party of China (CPC)’—Beijing’s preferred language—over the more colloquial ‘CCP’ [...] Overall, there’s a clear inclination in tankies’ dialogues towards viewpoints aligned with the CCP (or CPC in their vocabulary).
Brain legitimately spilling out of their ears.
We find the tankies’ usage of ‘Zelensky’ aligns with the r/DemocraticSocialism’s usage of ‘Trump’. This parallel suggests a certain scepticism or opposition towards Ukrainian sovereignty within the tankie community.
Wow! I had no idea it suggested this. Care to explain why opposition to a Western puppet who shakes the hands of Nazis and wears their merchandise means scepticism/opposition towards Ukrainian sovereignty (in a data-driven way)? Of course not. The "parallel" drawn is so shallow and meaningless. "This subreddit doesn't like Trump, these people don't like Zelensky, waow is there a common link here in that both of these groups don't like separate people?" And then nothing is done with this comparison?? Filling the word count to the brim.
If I actually wrote something this bad and shallow I would at least forget to put my real name on it.

more colloquial to who?
more colloquial to WHO, motherfucker??Libs love to (correctly) bring up that Republicans made a point to refer to the Democratic Party as the Democrat Party, solely because it sounds worse. They will then turn around and laugh at the idea of using the CPC's correct name.
If you don't call a square a triangle you're an extremist sweetie.
They needed to build off of the word association with the CCCP otherwise people wouldn't get mad enough on their own.
These are the same people who scream at you if you spell it Kiev
To be honest there is a lot of overlap between Zelensky and Trump, and certainly in their vibes and energy which is something that liberal should spot immediately since their analysis are based just on those (though they also miss those often).
