Who would have predicted that replacing Assad with an genocidal Jihadist terror group backed by Isntreal would be bad for Syria.

Why make this about tankies, even? What did tankies do to affect Syria? Do they think the internet is real?
Tankies posted online about opposing US intervention, and that’s basically the same as swearing an eternal oath to Assad and joining the Syrian Arab Army if you’re a twitter-addicted liberal.
The conflation of twitter and reddit politics with real life, especially WRT foreign policy, is such a disaster. If you’re an anarchist, socialist, or communist I wanna see you figuring out how to stop arms shipments to US allies, it doesn’t matter who the ally in question is lol (and if it’s Al-Qaeda then you obviously have even less ground to stand on)
All of the “but what about the self-determination of Syrian people!” People are really silent rn
