I’m pretty damn left leaning and I’ve never been called a tankie. I rarely even see anyone being called a tankie, except people who are defending authoritarians. The scope of the word “tankie” seemed generally pretty clear to me.
I thought that the line was that one supports owning the means of production and the other supports authoritarian governments, am I confused?
Anything that involves deception, which unfortunately seems to be most of marketing.
I don’t mind when people just try to get their product out there, just let it be known that it exists and does X thing differently or better. I hate when they mean to deceive. Something that is intended to deceive but isn’t technically a lie is not really better than a lie, to me.
