What definition of left-wing do they use to call tankies left-wing? I don’t know of any that would align with authoritarianism, which obviously entails inequality and significantly limited civil liberties. Other than that, it’s a good, though short piece. It would be great to see more research or reporting on the subject.

in a dry tone
Indeed.
The authors give away their ideology when they conflate anti-Zionism with anti-semitism.
If you think Zionism is a good thing, you’re supporting genocide.
Ireland is trying to redefine “genocide” to include Gaza & Ukraine situations.
Where do they conflate it? Here’s an excerpt from the quote they provide as an example of antisemitism:
Everyone identifing as a jew is a zionist and an enemy of the communist and anti imperialist movement.
You are a zionist if you support a two-state solution.
Technically true. I am therefore a Zionist. That doesn’t mean I want to see Israel expand into Jordan or even expand settlements in the WB.
Me neither
But too often is zionist used as a dog whistle for jew.
