Originally, it meant people who supported the soviet union's use of tanks to crush uprisings.
Now its used to describe people who support Authoritatian Communist regimes, like the ussr, north korea or china.
On lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml there is a high amount of them.

What ghoulish logic. 50.000 civilian casualties, 6 million refugees, a country and a future in ashes, 1.5 mothers mourning their mutilated sons. And you talk about them as pawns in your imaginary game.

You are no better than the Hawks in the Pentagon. Not one bit.
