What's really starting to come into view is that "online tankies" aren't even really that radically communist, it's just people with anti-American sentiments who are also culturally-4chan.

Looking forward to America spending several months devouring the trial of the health insurance CEO murderer while ignoring the president and his billionaire cronies’ attempts to dismantle the existing healthcare system.
Very sane country.
Filmmaker: "we released *Don't Put Your Life Savings In Shitcoins*, blockbuster movie about how excessive risk taking leads to gambler's ruin"
Audience: "I'm going to put my life savings in shitcoins like plucky antihero Bobby Gambles did in the movie *Don't Put Your Life Savings In Shitcoins*"
Two things can be true at once

The thing about blocking a jerk without otherwise engaging them is that an hour later you will have forgotten about them entirely; nothing about them will have stuck in your memory at all. There's not even a blank spot. It's simply as if they never existed in your space at all. It's delightful.
Democrats should not have gotten bullied into having to precede “the economy is good” with a litany of tears about how people are still suffering and actually that caveat overwhelms any accomplishment.
