      Physically ejecting everyone you decide is "authoritarian" isn't self-defense. Is the presence of a """tankie punk""" going to harm this person? I think this person is a kid, based on the tweet.

      Using the "authoritarian" definition the original tweet probably uses , yeah i agree that self defense isnt necesserily "authoritarian" but historicaly and currently the vast majority of self defense struggles against imperialism, colonialism and domestic reaction (and even state power) in large numbers and scales (and chances of success) didnt organize along non-hierarchical manners, didnt avoid using "authoriatian" measures and aimed to implement change when and if they win by "authoritarian" ways

      I guess this is skirting the line about sectarianism but aren't you literally like a trot or something? You're not that far off the "authoritarian" scale to the people who use tankie in earnest.
