Nah, I've seen enough communists agree that tankies are a thing to see this as just a No True ~~Scotsman~~Communist fallacy. Anyone, even a professed communist who disagrees with you, must just not properly understand the true nature of communism. Honestly, should have known to drop this hours ago. I do, but against my better judgment, I thought maybe there'd be a good point here somewhere. Very typical tankie who hates to be called a tankie behavior.
Who have you seen? Random online self-professed communists, or actual serious organizations? And for what it's worth, I'm not offended by being called a "tankie," just like I don't get offended when I get called "woke." My issue is with anti-communists pretending they aren't against communism by inventing a strawman to levy against communists in general.
