It's fun to remind people who use "tankie" that the historical event they're referencing was the soviets putting down a fascist rebellion that was literally gutting and lynching Jews and communists.
But apparently using state violence to stop fascist violence is authoritarian and if the people want to do a genocide we should let them.
Those same people will call the police heroes and talk about how the January 6 riot was a threat to democracy that needed to be violently put down.
No, didn't you know? Internet tankies(tm) are the exact same and will not hesitate to murder puppies and your mom
