In case you're being serious:

A tankie is a leftist/communist who thinks "send in the tanks" is a valid and viable strategy for political disagreement (see tiananmen square)

A terf is a Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist, basically a transphobe who either is pretending to care about women's issues to hurt us, or has been traumatised by some past event and is taking it out on us

It's probably worth saying that these days "Terf" tends to get used for anyone that's anti-trans, regardless if they are identifying as feminist or not.

[-] violetraven 14 points 2 years ago

True, but terfs themselves are anti-feminist as well.

I agree, it was more commenting on how it has become a bit of a catchall term. Feminist or not, they're all a bunch of wankers either way.
