The people in the US that were anti intervention in WW2 until Soviet Union got invaded, but then changed their stance were tankies (doubly so to the Union leaders that were fine with genocide in Poland but stopped striking the moment Stalin's criminal treaty backfired). The people that supported Soviet oppression in the Warsaw pact were tankies (that's what the terms comes from). The people supporting an Fascist land grab and genocide attempt, done under the same pretexts as Hitler had for Poland, right now, are tankies and truly worthy of their 1939 ideological ancestors.
