To add to it, 90% of the people they call tankies are just leftists who want to learn from the good things that states like USSR and China have done. As if that means they endorse everything they’ve ever done. However if you try to point out the things America has done such as the multiple genocides we participated in, dictators we propped up, and so on, then that doesn’t count towards them being… What do you call an American liberal tankie? Sherman’s?
