For the same reason, people now call communists “tankies” instead of commies.

Fast forward 10 years and communists parties are gonna rebrand to tankie parties. Hell, the rebranding of communism already happened twice so it's not even that /s

I’m sorry but if I have to be a part of an org that calls itself that, then I’m going to become a hermit.
