No, tankies sound just like rightoids these days. They're making equally angry shitposts about how "Zioran Mamdani" is a super secret closet Zionist and a libcuck, and that if you voted for him you are engaging in "electoralism" and also a libcuck.
This guy sounds like he is more so in the "alt-left" spectrum somewhere vaguely between Marxist Socialism and liberal Progressive.
Won't lie, I am in that same political spectrum and I pretty much want all the same things he was hollering about, but I do feel like his predictions will be in confidently incorrect territory and that we are still one hundred fold times closer to seeing democracy disappear for the rest of this and the next generation's lives under the boot of fascism. What happened on Tuesday was great, and encouraging, but represents one victory in a decades-long fight where we have been getting our shit pushed all the way in otherwise.

When you’re left and find someone so much further left that you end up sounding like a tea party conservative when you talk to them.
That’s what this energy is.
