Its basically just "any leftist I don't like" at this point. Not really any different from "woke".

Some arrogant western supremacist ultralefts use it to distance themselves from existing socialist states / attempts, but nowadays liberals will call even these ultralefts "tankies" for having the temerity to stand against Israel's genocide. Its just a term to punch left.

Your comment moderation history is full of racist "Found the russian!" comments.

if "full of" means one single comment as a reaction to a pro-Russian statement, yes.
