A tankie really doesn’t because 90% of the time they’re gay or trans.

Join the stupid phone meetings any American Communist party has. You will see that a strongly disproportionate amount are gay or trans. I'm gay and nonbinary. My husband is gay. Half my local Communists are lgbt. Leftists in general are often lgbt.

Tankies tend to be social outcasts and so do lgbt people. That might be part of the connection.
