    Internet weirdos have made it so that tankie basically just means “anti American but a lot” at this point so yeah he is now

      I thought tankie meant “someone who hurt my delicate feelings disgreeing with me”?

      i stopped feeling bad at being called a tankie when i realized this. to most people tankie just means someone who hates american imperialism, which…yeah bro tank my shit up. like they’ve given up any actual anti-communist critique with the tankie name calling and just resorted to ‘well don’t you know america is actually good’
