Reply to comment by Chronic_Sardonic in Tankie is just liberal "woke" by HollowVesterian

Because it was never ajiht a word having a definite meaning in the first place, it was about the use of the word rendering it meaningless. OP thinks the term Tankie has become synonymous with an abstract view of leftist politics that the word is thrown around without proper nuance. Just as I believe the terms I've listed have become.

If you failed to grasp this concept then that's on you.

If a word is being used it can’t be meaningless; language is a series of symbols, no one uses meaningless words.

People use meaningless words constantly. People just don't want to talk to you so you never notice it.
