The term “tankie” was originally used by dissident Marxist–Leninists to describe members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) who followed the party line of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). Specifically, it was used to distinguish party members who spoke out in defense of the Soviet use of tanks to suppress the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the 1968 Prague Spring, or who more broadly adhered to pro-Soviet positions.

Tankies are pro authoritarian, and always have been.

It depends on what your opinion is and what you mean by respect.

If your opinion is not well explained or backed up by evidence/logic and isn’t something completely subjective, what is there to respect?

If your opinion is reprehensible, downright stupid, or ignorant? You have access to the entire base of human knowledge and are still ignorant, so what is there to respect?

Your opinion is completely logical/uncontroversial or is well backed by evidence? Where does respect come into it?

They meant the argument you were responding to, the obvious strawman, and not what you said.
