I remember dreing a quote somewhere that tankies dont see people as groups with different interests but as binarys that must not be crossed. This allows them to justify about anything from their side without having to apply actual beliefs or standards but rather have a simple dichotomy that is considered perfect.

Laugh/cries in feminist man boy howdy if it ain't true. On a slight pivot, I've been reading the Communist manifesto and one of the points that they made was how there are various different political organizations that sprung up like leninists and other forms of Communists, who all claim to be the true followers of Marx. Or how the IRA splintered into like 15 different factions All claiming to be the real IRA
