    When a leftist, or progressive says “tankie” it is different from what the mainstream media perceives. It (tankie) indicates someone who is overzealously supportive of non-Western imperialist countries such as Russia and China and denies their atrocities.

    Also, the term developed from the tanks deplored by the user to invade Hungary and denote people who supported such action.
