As a leftist, I just dislike tankies. Libs aint leftists. Libs are status quo chucklefucks that think they’re superior to conservatives without doing anything different.
The right/left distinction kind of breaks down when you start considering authoritarians with left-wing economics. That left is very keen on purity in a way I’d call cryptofascist, with an emphasis on the fascist.
