  I’ve never heard a cop called a Tankie.

  But they’re always the ones in the large militant unions demanding more public money while driving around in actual tanks.

    To be fair, Chinese cops would probably be tankies.

      Few carry guns. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the Chinese police equivalent to the NYPD Police Tank that was used to raid the Columbia campus.

        Meaningless distinction. Whether it’s military or whatever. Whichever state supported group is shooting and beating and arresting protestors in China, they’re tankies.
