Tankie is to liberals as woke is to conservatives but y'all aren't ready for that conversation
Tankie seems more targeted then woke. Woke is everything left of Reagan sometimes.
Tankie is, at it's most general, anyone supporting authoritarian measures for "left" wing reasons.
As if. I seen someone call JT tankie in that famous Hasan clip.
It's literally just "you're to the left of me and I don't like it"
Jt does support statist solutions. I mean so do I so yeah he's not a tankie to me, but for some anarchy is the only acceptable end game.
Again it's not generally a "too left" thing, but "too authoritarian" thing.
