Yankee Tankie's relevance in the Infrared Community:
Yankee Tankie entered the scene early in the year of 2021 with the Organization The Center for Political Innovation (The CPI) He was the first member of the John Brown Volunteers. Then he was known as 'Imperialist America' on YouTube and largely went by Joey Schantz, his actual name. He spent his months in a small hotel room in Jersey City living with Keaten Mansfield and Kervan (Kiki). He and other John Brown Volunteers met with Caleb Maupin frequently in NYC in a McDonalds and Wendy's near the old NYC RT building.
There in NYC Yankee would co-host events for the CPI and canvass selling Cancel Student debt buttons, and spread Caleb Maupin's concept of 'Constructive Socialism's and the trend of 'City Builder's. He would put up videos of him speaking in Union Square park in NYC, and songs he wrote for events for the CPI.
He would later get kicked out of the CPI and lived in Texas in a motel room ebegging for money. Many people donated and were synthetic, at this time he have not yet come out against the Infrared Community or Caleb Maupin. During this time Yankee made his first splash in the Infrared Community when he made a video expo on Keaten Mansfield exposing some of the things he did in the CPI. (Yankee later retracted some statements about Keaten after he worked with him on the infamous medium article against Caleb Maupin).
Yankee went against Haz first with a Twitter debate where Yankee Tankie criticized Haz saying he committed Haram by wearing a Wife Beater and having premarital sex. He then earned the Meme Iman Yankee Tankie. He later tried to debate Haz from an alt Twitter account on a space calling himself The meme 'Paul Rodgers' The memes spread like wild fire this leaving a group of Paul Rodgers Stan's.
The Yankee Tankie later signed a medium Article against Caleb Maupin with former members of the CPI which includes Keaten Mansfield and FoL (Nick). Afterwards, Yankee apologized for signing the Document claiming that FoL (Nick) is either a Fed or being used by someone saying that Nick didn't allow him or others to read the document before it was released. This infamous document however allows the Yankee Tankie to debate people like Vaush, Dylan Burns, and others, rising Yankee Tankie into infamous fame.
