This is like when Trump supporters say that racist has lost all meaning
[Ron Howard voice]
it wasn't.

for those following along:

racism is a system that exists in society. there are people who support this system. those people are called "racists"

there are also things people say and do that are in line with this system. "racist" is a descriptive term for such words and actions.

by contrast, "tankie-ism" is not a societal system. it also isn't an ideology. "tankie" is a slang term, and it isn't even a descriptive term. it's exclusively a pejorative, and who it's referring to depends greatly on the person using it. thus, there is no concrete definition.

so if anyone wants to avoid looking like the text equivalent of a rabid dog, just learn to be precise with your language and avoid the horseshoe theory bullshit.

this has been a public service announcement
