They are still evil in how they treat Uyghurs, Tibetans and democracy activists. They definitely use torture on dissidents.

Nah, you're not a tankie if you're saying that earnestly.

Tankies defend the CCP/Russia no matter what, it's always they've done nothing wrong and if they did, it wasn't that bad, and if it was that bad, it was just "western propaganda" so it isn't true.

I've seen (and documented) them saying that "they're just reeducation camps, they're not that bad and it's done anyways so ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯" and allowing Russian propaganda that their invasion "was just a diplomatic maneuver"

You're just bringing an argument "I think X is bad, but not worse than Y because Z"
