    Juxtapose the term liberal with tankie for a moment in usage alone.

    If being called liberal is interpreted as above, it is likely those are the same sentiments expressed when calling someone or something tankie, no?

      Yes. I don’t know where the notion that tankies don’t do that sort of thing comes from when they do it all the time in their own way. Sure, they’re not accusing anyone of being a Liberal bot sent by Soros because it’s absurd, but they approximate with what they can to discredit who they don’t like. They’re only human.
