    I remember the game being introduced to me whilst in highschool in the early 90s. It was introduced to me by my stoner friends. I lost it a few times during highschool because it was a thing along with getting punched if looking at the circle. I definitely lost it in 1997 when the movie The Game came out. I have lost it many more times as the years grind on.

    Wikipedia has a good definition:

    Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to communists who express support for one-party communist regimes that are associated with Marxism–Leninism, whether contemporary or historical.

    History:

    The term “tankie” was originally used by dissident Marxist–Leninists to describe members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) who followed the party line of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). Specifically, it was used to distinguish party members who spoke out in defense of the Soviet use of tanks to crush the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the 1968 Prague Spring uprising, or who more broadly adhered to pro-Soviet positions.

    Yeah, I used Firefox nightly until uBlock Origin became available on the regular release. Glad to see that most are going to be available. Been using Firefox since before they refactored the entire codebase (I think it was Mozilla Navigator back then). Went to Opera for awhile, Maxthon, and Chrome when it first game out but I always had Firefox installed.
