The creator said she hated the subreddit because of the way it spoke about tankies. She had been on r/GenZedong a few times complaining about how... "anti-tankie" they were. I remember that whenever someone posted a r/genzanarchist post to dunk on anarchists (usually the screenshot compared MLs with reactionaries) she would comment that she regretted creating the community when she "was younger and more ignorant" (her words).

Again, I can't imagine this going any different if it had been the r/GenZedong creator becoming an anarchist. There's a lot of bad blood between the two communities. This is what the subs say: tankies are red fascist genocide deniers and anarchists are liberals who will defend fascism before Communism. No idea why she didn't make it private instead but it's her own deal.

Edit: they have set it to private now. Inchresting. Why do such a move if you're not gonna be able to handle the flame?
