Tankies don't have left aligned values, only left aligned appearance.
Frankly this is some No True Leftist stuff. Tankies want to bring about socialism via an intermediary step of brutality. You could definitely argue that such a step is not True Socialism, and I think you'd be right, but I took a shit today that wasn't True Socialism so does that mean the next thing I did was not socialism?
For the record, I don't like tankies either, but there's plenty of space to push back against them without relying on bad faith arguments.
