Is being against a kidnapping tankie? I’m a communist and people have called me tankie from time to time, but I still don’t know what it means and it seems to change definition everytime I ask.

Tankie means authoritarian communist, although states that tankies support nowadays are nowhere near communism, but definitely are authoritarian.
News flash - just because you’re you don’t like the US doesn’t mean you have to love the governments of Cuba, Russia, Venezuela etc.

That is not news to me. But I am probably more lenient towards Cuba and Venezuela than most. Russia is just as bad as the USA these days. And Russia hunts socialists just as ferverently as the USA.

Does it mean deconstructing the imperial apparatus for manufacturing consent?
