    tankie colloquially refers to communists who deluded themselves into thinking authoritarianism can breed anything other than opression and that to give power to the people, you first got to take it away from the people.

    its not impossible to work with tankies on low stake joined causes but with their usually hierarchical and authoritarian organising structures (that they even try to spread) they still make for shitty partners.

    their idelology is misguided and harmful. i hope they all eventually learn and become anarchists. power to the people

      That is probably the most on point description.
