The only issue is that I'll see perfectly logical socialist, communist or anarchist arguments get attacked as "tankie" and I worry that all this hullabaloo is just rightists trying to set back leftist ideology by painting it all as tankie ideology.

I can attest to this. I've been called a tankie (on this subreddit, too) for politely asking someone not to call people the R-word.
