Allegedly left-wing bootlickers. Historically, they are more comparable to fascists than anything leftist.

I support the anti-aurhoritarian backbone of this, but it would probably be more helpful to focus on the content we want to avoid rather than assuming people will all have the same idea of what being a "tankie" entails. Not loving having dark violent imagery on my feed either but oh well.

I mean, the definition is kinda clear.

https://www.dictionary.com/e/politics/tankie/

you should defederate lemmygrad and maybe even main lemmy instance then. Because they kinda belong to that category afaik.
