It happens for far left content as well. I don’t think it’s limited to hateful content. At least, that’s what I’ve read from the chapotraphouse subreddit. Example being upvoting some far left stuff in r/politics.

'Far-left content' and 'hateful content' are not mutually exclusive. Quite the opposite, really. It is amazing how people will redefine hating Trump supporters, men, white people, "the 1%", western civilization etc as somehow 'not hateful'. "My hate isn't hate, I just dislike things that are bad." Right.

Usually it expresses an intolerance for intolerance or hypocritical actions. > It is amazing how people will redefine hating Trump supporters, men, white people Is there even a point to you speaking here? You're like an incel on a women's forum. You've transitioned into a complete non-sequitur.

      The term has evolved over time. The people going by tankies now are likely not the same as decades ago. So, it's unclear what you think it is. https://www.reddit.com/r/ChapoTrapHouse/comments/hb0xep/wtf_are_tankies_lmao/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ChapoTrapHouse/comments/hb0xep/wtf_... https://www.reddit.com/r/ChapoTrapHouse/comments/hb0xep/wtf_are_tankies_lmao/fv6o42e/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ChapoTrapHouse/comments/hb0xep/wtf_...

        Tankie feels like it became a near useless term. Some well known liberal paper (maybe NYT?) published some article that insinuated that maybe US cold war era propaganda on the USSR wasnt nessicarily always true and someone linked it to me referring to it as a tankie article.

        They still defend indefensible things like Holodomor or Tiananmen Massacre.

Hateful content is never clearly defined and it comes from both political extremes.
