“Literally just Conservapedia with red paint” -A Redditor
“Everything I don’t like is exactly the same thing.”
if you look at the history of far right ideas, they have very strong syncretic inclinations. They unify their own concepts, even if they get contradictory salads in result (most fascist tendencies, conservatism and liberalism etc) and also they unify their strawmen of opposing concepts (judeobolshevism, all things LGBT). It’s usually caused by lack of understanding of those concepts - and i believe by inability to count to 3 since they seems to have not much problem with 1, some with 2, but any more and the salads start.
I think it’s a lifetime of living in a liberal bubble. Everything outside just looks scary and unfamiliar.
It’s like how a few years ago somebody on Reddit’s EnoughCommieSpam summarized Lemmygrad as ‘Stormfront but for commies’. Typical ECS comment: a generic and hideously lazy analogy devoid of sophistication or circumspection, just like the dullard’s shallow impression that equated ProleWiki with Conservapedia.

It’s the Simpsons “No, it’s the children who are wrong!” meme but with enlightened centrists.
Anyone that calls themselves a “tankiejerker” is a special level of cringe human being.
That’s not what they call temselves, it comes from the subreddit where they reside, r/tankiejerk
Fair enough. They are still just as cringe.
WTF is that subreddit. It was a mistake trudging through that.
Its a hive of scum, villainy and pedophilia and capitalist bootlicking.
And weird perv things
The poll asking people’s ideology kinda gives away the game.
Oh they’ve known for a while. But it’s good publicity, we always make plenty of visits on those days. It just takes them agreeing with us once to come back, then they agree a second time, and eventually they become tankies too.
