The kind that thinks communism is the same as nazism and thinks communism is when the government does things.
I hate liberal brain worms.
They seriously do as much damage to the left as fascists by punching to the left and spreading capitalist anti-left propaganda. They overall weaken leftism and help fascism.
We need more left unity, folks. Fash ain’t gonna bash themselves.
99% of the people who use the term “tankie” are NOT anarchists
Principled and theoretical anarchists who organize get my respect, Social liberals with delusions of spontaneity get my scorn, just like any patsoc liberal who pretends to be a “communist”
You don’t get to define what is a “true anarchist” and what isn’t, much less exclusively based off of if they use a word you don’t like or not. I don’t care about your respect, I am merely pointing out a dynamic that constantly happens in this community and those similar to it.
I mean I can literally define what an anarchist is because there’s a historical and theoretical structure to anarchism and if it isn’t followed you’re simply not an anarchist
Anarchism isn’t an ethnic group, it’s a economic sociopolitical philosophy someone follows and 99% of people who use terms like “tankie” do not follow it

Fair enough, that’s true.
Regardless, saying “tankie” indicates nothing of your understanding of anarchist philosophy. You have to actually look at what the person is saying. Some definitely are simply larping (like vaushites and such), some have been committed anarchists for decades. I’m not sure if you’re so enthusiastic about left unity you want to believe “anti-tankie” anarchists are “just not the true real and good ones”, or if you just want to discredit anyone that uses the word, but regardless it’s just a blind blanket statement.
