What an embarrassingly useless report that sums up to "tankies support actually existing socialism, have their own lingo, and like to talk about things that they're on the opposite side of the mainstream on"

A choice bit:

Finally, we show that tankies’ response to Reddit deplatforming them was similar to that of right-wing extremists: completely migrating to a new platform

"Leftists and fascists both respond to being kicked out by going somewhere else" lmao, anyone who doesn't just disappear into the ether when deplatformed is a right wing extremist.

That's not even a serious report. Looks like someones homework or personal project. Probably got an F for it.

is this the anacho communism article

When we look at how tankies and other ideology subreddits are layed out in Figure 2a, we see some meaningful positions. For example, we can see that r/democrats is positioned between r/Capitalism, r/progressive, r/SocialDemocracy, r/DemocraticSocialism, and r/Conservative. This may seem odd at first glance, but considering that these ideologies represent current US politics, it makes sense that they are positioned close to each other.
