To clarify, I stated that the instance is a Nazi bar, as in there are some massive zionists, fascists, etc. allowed to roam freely, but that this doesn’t describe the entire instance:

The instance is a Nazi bar, the two biggest comms are circlejerks for anti-communism and pro-western imperialism. There are some good users on occasion, but the instance itself is very reactionary.

Secondly, the word “tankie” in its social use is as an anti-communist pejorative. It’s a strawman with ready-made characteristics built up by anti-communists to avoid actually having to address the arguments of communists. The wikipedia page isn’t maintained by a communist, it’s maintained primarily by liberals, they aren’t looking at it from the communist perspective.

Neither link I sourced was bad-faith, either, unless you mean the communist perspective on a pejorative for communists is inherently bad-faith. It doesn’t matter what an individual specifically means by using “tankie,” in its social practice it just means “communist, but I don’t like it.”
