Look, you’re doing it! That’s the whatabout campism it is refering to!
I’m not here to argue which shitass empire is better (frankly all should collapse). Just introducing what a tankie means to regular people here to you to reduce tension you’re having over different definitions
Addressing your points from a perspective of an ML?

Interesting. You never mentioned “whataboutism” in your “tankie” description, and you were allowed to insert whatever convenient definition you saw fit. I can see the goalposts are moving now that I’ve addressed your original points directly. Convenient that we’re never allowed to explain our position, lest the term “tankie” be thrown at us and summarily hand wave away anything we say.
Just introducing what a tankie means to regular people
Again, since I’m usually the one the term is being used against, I think I know what most “regular” people think the term means: which is usually just broadly anti-ML and anti-any-established-socialist-state because they’re [ignorantly and incorrectly] viewed as “Authoritarian”.

I think we’ve exhausted this debate here.
