I'm in this image and I don't like it.
The fascism was the ~~friends~~ enemies we made along the way.
You see, the joke is sex. That makes it funny.
I read this, scrolled down, actually processed the words, and scrolled back up to stare at it.
I stared until the blurriness from the tears in my eyes made the catperson's eyes appear closed. Did I win?

Incorrect. It's not about the fact that they're communists. Rather, it's about their strict nationalistic feelings towards Russia and China. They claim that these regimes are communist (which is incorrect), and thus support any action by these nations. They enable and overlook oppressive actions commited by them, while being quick to point out the oppressive actions of the other countries (which are openly capitalist).
I've seen many tankies debate with other people, and they frequently employ tactics used by conspiracy theorists, such as selectively accepting sources, and denouncing everything else as propoganda. I've even seen a tankie denounce a news outlet, then use the same outlet in the same thread to argue their point.
I say this as someone who finds Marxism appealing, by the way. So I am in no way (as far as I can tell) biased against these people.

To the tankies: please don't spread across more instances. I prefer that y'all stay easy-to-block.
