Except that when people say “tankies” they are not referring to all socialists, but to the branch that supports authoritarian socialist governments, pretty much on the opposite end of the leftist spectrum from anarchism, so I understand why op would feel that way, although I will take that community any day over a right leaning community.
Authoritarianism itself is not a wrong thing, because corrupt “liberals” and many others always assume according to Western media that authoritarianism comes with a corrupt moral conscience. However, every single Western democracy that is part of controlling this global narrative has showed us that they are the ones with corrupt moral conscience to the point they want to proxy control other countries. This is not just USA or UK I am talking about, which are infamous examples.
