Mine happened when i first made a reddit account, i got banned from a subreddit with a tankie moderator because i questioned the logic of having lenin as the subreddits profile, for a subreddit devoted to anti conservative memes.

One quick test is if you think the CCP was justified in killing all the Tiananmen Square protesters. If you say “Yes, the government needed to kill those people” then you’re a tankie.
Marxists, Leninists; what-have-you - can be non-violent and non-authoritarians. Tankies (IMO) specifically love the killing and authoritarian aspect.
