What is a tankie?

Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes or their allies. More specifically, the term has been applied to those who express support for one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republics, whether contemporary or historical.

    Read the first line in my comment again. Israel is blocking the actual UN investigation. Your report specifically states that it is not evidence and cannot be used as evidence.

      That Israel has not provided evidence? Maybe, but irrelevant to our conversation.

      The UN report itself outlines how sexual violence has occurred in this conflict, right from the start.

        Strange because the UN seems to disagree with you. The UN says there is no evidence Hamas raped anyone in this very article:

          I agree that the Oct 7 rape charges are bullshit, but you’re misrepresenting the image you posted: it says there was no investigation and that one would be due to draw any conclusions.

            There was no investigation. That would require an investigative mandate.

            It is insane that anyone would believe witnesses provided by the israeli government after a track record of like 10 previous witnesses provided by the israeli government that were proven to be lying.

              What’s truly insane is how you’re getting downvoted when Israel’s claims have been repeatedly disproven or simply never substantiated.

                These people are completely brainwashed. Israeli lies can be debunked 10 times. They spout an 11th lie without evidence and the cult of liberals holds it up like the Bible
