    Interesting because the term ‘tankie’ originated because a faction of the english communists supported putting down a fascist coup in eastern europe.

    The same people who support every fascist coup the CIA involves themselves with still use the term the exact same way to this very day

        I guess vatnik is as close as a deranged western chauvinist is likely to get to accuracy. Ruscist is still just childish use of words for their emotional impact rather than their actual meaning.
