Originally a socialst who thinks authoriatarian politics like using the military (tanks) against civilians of own or allied nations is a legitimate course of action (hence the term tankie) Here on lemmy people mostly mean radical stalinists who think criticising historical socialism makes you a liberal and therefore a enabler of facists. It has become a general slur for authoritarian left to whom everyone who doesn't like Stalin can't be a Marxist/socialist
