I'm not sure I've seen any evidence of it existing though, is it just a Boogeyman, or so something that happened a while back? An in joke of some sort?

I haven't seen tankie content, but it's not like I actively search for it.

I do see a lot of whining about tankie content, mostly from people who post bigoted shit.

What posts about the tankie problem? I’ve seen none of these posts?

Diehard democrats finding out they're not as leftist as they thought they were. Anything that runs counter to their narrative is "tankie". They're afraid of what is different and it's their version of calling everything they don't understand/like "woke".

Ahh, yes. The "Stalin did nothing wrong" posts are possessing of nuance worthy of discussion and aren't trashy troll takes at all

Exactly, "tankie" is just the lefts version of "woke"
