A hardline Capitalist. Someone who defends capitalism to the hilt, even when it becomes authoritarian and immoral for them to do so. This word is not meant to say that capitalism is bad, but rather describe people who become borderline authoritarians when defending the system of Capitalism. The word does not specifically have any bite to it.
The derives from the words [Tankie] and Porky
Porky is a cartoon character from a 1920 Soviet [agitprop] poster. The character, both online and in real life, has been used to represent the bourgeois or ruling class, a literal [capitalist pig].
A Tankie is an apologist for the violence and crimes against humanity perpetrated by twentieth-century Marxist-Leninist regimes, particularly the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin (1924 - 1953).
