Tankie is someone who (apparently) unironically loves communism, in the USSR sense. The name comes from when Hungary wanted to rescind from the Soviet Union in 1956, who replied by sending in tanks. This made many communists around Europe think seriously what they’re supporting and move to a more moderate position. Some people remained tankies, though.
Orcs are what Ukrainians are calling Russian invaders. It works because they come from the east and behave like orcs in Tolkien’s books.

Wtf is a tankie and an orc? And why should I worry about them? Do I need a Gandalf?
You’re a tankie and an orc if you’re ever critical of the US or capitalism. Even more so if you dare to say something good about China.

Yes, we do need a Gandalf.
