    They are serious but use their jokes as a smokescreen.

        Hate speech and extremism must be condemned whenever it appears.

          I honestly think the best thing to do with them is just to leave them alone. They feed off attention, if nobody is there to listen or condemn them it’ll lose its novelty.

          Sure, some tankies will go on for ever, but isolating them is the best way of stopping recruitment and limiting the appeal of posting provocativist bullshit.

            You have a point.

            But I think it’s important to point out their bigotry and hatred. Since, yeah, I don’t think anyone can deny that capitalism and today’s market is incredibly unfair and wholly corrupt (though so are the few current communist states). It’s usually how these extremists operate, acknowledge a problem in society that everyone else recognises, but suppose radical ideas and solutions, unfortunately the solutions often end in bloodshed and violence.
