Tankies are right-wing, though. They are nothing more than right-wingers who have co-opted leftist terminology. Wolves in (very poorly made) sheep’s clothing, if you will.
Well yeah you aren’t exactly wrong, but if we are talking about the very basic ideas of “progressive” and “conservative”, Tankies are basically authoritarians with the vineer of being left wing. They in the end go against basically everything they think they stand for, but those are basically the people who are pointing to when people go “well the communist are just as bad!”
