Mine happened when i first made a reddit account, i got banned from a subreddit with a tankie moderator because i questioned the logic of having lenin as the subreddits profile, for a subreddit devoted to anti conservative memes.

Check out the community info, because that's how I found out.

It's somebody that defends authoritarian governments because of their support of socialism.

Specifically authoritarian ones. it's a term used by communists/leftists for other communists mostly.

thats a propaganda line only spouted from the mouths of those engulfed in tankie misinformation.
