He confirmed that he was in fact one and in the context in which I was referring.

Tankie only in the meaning of Marxist-Leninist, not as in I actually love tanks or military prowess in and of itself, no.

AFAIK, "tankie" is one of those slurs like "feminazi" or "SJW" that has legitimate uses because it has a useful ideological meaning and the derogatory connotations are relatively mild. It may be enough to push a post over the line if there are other problems, but it isn't actionable on its own.

I thought, following in the khafir logic, slurs were actionable, but it is not actionable to call someone "essentially a tankie" without basis?

And? Someone could have "Neo-Pagan" in their signature and I'd still get a warning for calling them a khafir.
