    I wouldn’t feel bad using a pejorative for fascists. Neither do I feel bad using a pejorative for other authoritarians. Their disrespect for human dignity, liberty, and worth disqualifies them for protection against such a minor indignity.

    Tankies is fine for anyone on the side of the tanks at Tiananmen Square.

      That’s not even where the term originates. Come on, if you’re going to use the term at least do the 10 second Google search.
