    liberals don’t use “tankie”, they would just use the term “communist”

        I think you may be misinterpreting soc-dems or anarchists or whoever else on the left as liberals

          Well give that another think because you’re wrong. This idea that liberals don’t use the word tankie is so off base and moronic I don’t know where you guys are coming from.

            I think most liberals don’t know what the word means. Not saying no liberal uses it though.

              Here’s a reddit (ugh) thread of (mostly) liberals discussing the term.

              It’s not some secret code word.

                well yeah, it’s an askreddit thread discussing the question

                  Right, with the OP commenting that liberals frequently call them a tankie. And then a thread full of liberals sharing their opinion on the term, pretty damned clearly showing they know what it means. What else do you need?
