What's a tankie?
Originally, it was used to describe those who defended the use of tanks to stop the Hungarian revolution 1956 (i think)
Now its used to describe those that align with Marxism-leninism (also i think)
Loaded question is going to get loaded answers but:
Marxist-identifying people who like to glorify oppressive regimes, usually Stalin's USSR and Mao's China. Fascists disguised as communists.
And what makes you think this meme has anything to do with them?
You know that tankies are a small minority in global northern leftism?
