I think it's only because Kissinger was one of the architects of modern China-US diplomacy. Kissinger is regarded with a weirdly high amount of praise in China currently, but that praise seems to be limited to his advocacy for the Chinese-American relationship. I don't know how the average Chinese person feels about his role in the Vietnam war or Cambodia.
However, among English speaking Marxists Kissinger is regarded as Satan himself, so yeah I have no idea who among 'tankies' is endorsing him. All I ever see is hope that he'll die soon, and hopefully it is soon inshallah
at this point I've gone from hoping he dies to hoping he lives for another ten years and sees his entire life project destroyed as the US get checked into the fucking boards by China

Comparing Kissinger to Satan is unfair to Satan.
