I see people calling "tankies" right wingers for this reason all the time on linked to me threads on shit like "meanwhileongrad" threads. The thought is since leftists attack democrats and liberals but never trump and conservatives, we are in support of trump and conservatives and are the actual right wingers. It is part of the horseshoe nonsense. The real reason I don't waste my time making fun of republicans and reposting anti-trump memes is that everyone in my target audience is already against them and its just a circlejerk at this point. Trump and conservatives don't deserve to be given validity at all but the liberals are caught up on the if you're not actively against something you support it.
