birdberry_babkaAuthoritarian communists. Think Stalinists, and people who support regimes like the CCP. The top left of the political compass.
Does the word Tankie comes from the tanks in tinnamen square?
Sort of but the talkie part originated from a Russian invasion of some country

FaceDeerThe Hungarian Revolution of 1956, which was crushed by Soviet tanks.
How ironic that Hungary is now Russia's pawn in the EU.
Another layer of irony, US conservatives love Victor Orban of Hungary and even I had him speak at CPAC.
A few days ago Hungary's minister of foreign affairs said that if Trump was president the war in Ukraine never would have happened because Putin feared Trump too much. What a fucking joke, can't decide which dick to suck.
It's not much ironic considering how... fascism-leaning Hungary always was, historically. It was a large faction of Hungarian native politicians who invited Soviet intervention in the first place. The Hungarian secret service at the time also shot at protesters, which escalated the protests. Russia at the time wasn't an entire culprit, that changed with 1968.
