I use the word tankie a lot because there are a lot of tankies on the internet. I suppose a tankie would think that’s overusing it though. Tankies overuse words like “capitalist shitlib,” “zionist,” “fascist,” “western imperialist,” and “genocide apologist.” Those things are all deserving of critique, but I’m none of those things. And if tankies don’t stop throwing them around like meaningless insults, then they’re gonna lose their meanings and get treated like meaningless insults.
I’ve already had people tell me to stop hyperbolizing while talking about actual fascists, because people are so worn down by tankies calling everyone and their mother a fascist just for being closer to the center than a bolshevik.
I never said “I’m socialist because I’m anti-maga.” I’m socialist, and I’m anti-maga.

Socialists do not support any form of capitalism…
