Tankie is far left? I thought it was far right. I admit I never really was sure, though.
If you’re in America, do you see the entire rest of the g-20 as really far left? They do free healthcare and schooling in the g-20 but require almost as much tax as America, and I’m wondering if that makes them appear really far left given America’s parties are center-right and far-right and everyone could have that as their point of view.
I mostly see tankies as an authoritarian (far right?) group pretending to be far left. Or at least that’s how they brand it, even though they openly advocate for government confiscation of all property.

Have you ever spoken to a leftist?
Half of this comment section is people who probably consider themselves “centrist” but shriek tankie and block anybody even an inch left of biden. 🤣
Half of Lemmy, I would say. There’s a bimodal distrubution on Lemmy, centering around Leftism and Liberalism, with variance among those.
