Ok, what’s a tankie?
Originally, it meant people who supported the soviet union's use of tanks to crush uprisings.
Now its used to describe people who support Authoritatian Communist regimes, like the ussr, north korea or china.
On lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml there is a high amount of them.
The authoritarian part waxes and wanes, there's a few anarchists in their ranks who have no real solution after "tear it all apart".
What then, boys?
I'm sure there's a couple of genuine ones but tbh any anarchist who mostly hangs out with tankies is pretty sus imo
