The term Tankie has a clear definition that Cowbee likes to ignore:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those > who support or defend acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the > occurrence of the events thereof.

My irl anarchists suck and use the term sincerely irl. I asked one what they meant by that and suddenly it wasnt an Open and Free Meeting of Minds or what fucking ever.

Don't you understand?! We have to suppress dissenting voices to stop their echo chamber bullshit! And we need to use our authority to brutalise and crush people who disagree with us to stop their authoritarianism!

No!!! It's those damn tankies who have an echo chamber, not us! That's why we need to defederate from them and block them all so we never have to hear any opinions that disagree with ours!
