.world definitely has a problem distinguishing between Tankies and leftists. I've literally had a guy argue with me that tankie and Bernie Bro were interchangeable because, "definitions change."
Well I love Bernie. When he told me he wasn't running in 2024, and he wanted me to support Kamala, I listened. And I've never been called a tankie. Maybe it comes down to individual differences.
I also voted for Kamala and I also haven't been called a tankie (at least yet). But I've seen multiple liberals on .world call leftists tankies, often without understanding the meaning. At first, I found it very strange, since I'd only ever seen that term used in leftist circles. It made more sense when I realized they picked it up from .ml, which, to be fair, had a lot of fucking tankies.
Ohhh, so it's the tankies who are responsible for this. That makes sense.
That reminds me of how Israel tells everyone that killing people is part of the Jewish identity, and then complains when people believe them
