i deffo hate some tankies, in the same way that i deffo hate some vegetarian/vegans when they actively chase people away for seemingly no reason. sometimes though i do feel like i see more blind hate for entire communities than actual worthwhile discussion.
i guess the problem could really just come down to your definition of ātankieā. to some folks itās a very specific kind of obvious troll, and to others itās just anyone on an .ml instance.
and not to turn it into a ālesser evilā discussion, but between .world and .ml, i definitely know which which meme community iām hanging out in. iāve yet to have a single bad interaction with anyone in .ml communities, but i also donāt talk politics in fucken marxist/leninist spaces either. YMMV hahahah

Not all ml-ers are tankies, but most of them are, and all it takes is most of them.
fair! but i do worry the term is at risk of being overused to the point of no longer having a cohesive meaning.
