If you’re upset about being called a tankie, you could cross-reference what you are urging people to do with what the Republican party wants people to do. And then stop that.
In general I would recommend being antifascist in a way that isn’t the exact same actions as overt fascism with the only difference being the rhetoric justifying the actions.
Tankie is the pro-authoritarian left. The Stalinists essentially. The ones who think it’s appropriate to send in the tanks to quell a socialist or communist uprising because it has a tint of democracy in it, which may cause their strong leader to lose dictatorial power.
Is this code for “people who aren’t voting for Joe Biden”?
that would be people who are essentially voting for trump, so yeah, why not.
It’s code for “antifascist” “leftists” who are urging people to do the exact same things that the Republican party wants them to do.
Specifically, which things?

It depends on whether you consider PRC and Stalin “left.” There are plenty of their supporters out on the internet.
