    This one gets me the most.

    "Tankie" literally just is a slur for socialists in modern parlance. It's basically just like calling someone "Anarkiddie"

    It means fucking nothing and is used as a lazy reason for dissmissing one's views and goals.

      "Tankie" and "authoritarianism" are two everclear signifiers that a person is talking out of their ass.
      Edit: and whataboutism

        lol yeah they hit lib bingo in that one post

        also calling Mao's revolution "conquest" like bruh the only place that could even possibly apply to is Tibet and they were literally a SLAVE STATE. Fuck Tibet I'm glad they got liberated.
