I think much of Beehaw is heavily leftist. I don't think many here are specifically against communism and recognize that there are governments abusing it and their power. With the government siding with the people over corporations being the core reason for Anti-Capitalists, my experience Tankies are no different in that regard. It's the same breed of fascism that failed Capitalism, Communism, and Socialism. i.e. Authoritarian Mass Murderers.
There is no defending that. Full stop. And that is why Tankies are bad, just like Alt-Right Capitalist Religious Fascism. They are celebrating the exact same thing for their version of the exact same results. I can't really see how acknowledging this is anti-communist, I would argue it's quite the opposite since they are inherently a threat to it, given the history.
