Tankies aren't leftists. They simp for genocidal far right dictatorships.

Not only that, they despise leftist movements that call modern China what it is. Revisionist.

They hate Khrushchev while embracing the same bankrupt ideology that he pushed, but only whoever it’s in one of the countries that currently claim to be socialist. The social imperialism of the USSR was replaced by the social imperialism of Deng’s China and that was a good thing in their mind.

I never simp for genocidal far right dictatorships but often get called a tankie. Because I guess when you don't wanna debate someone invent strawmen

Right isn't a synonym for evil. The left has a lot of genodical leaders, like Stalin, Mao, Castro, just to name the biggest ones.
