It’s not far-right vs far-left, it’s authoritarian vs libertarian. Conservatives and tankies are both on the authoritarian side and for someone who cares more about personal freedom than economics they’re way more similar than anarchists & tankies or right-libertarians & conservatives from your perspective.
It doesn’t even have to be the political compass, 8values or 9axes works just as well with what I’m saying, which is that tankies are conservatives are very similar in a lot of ways once you stop considering economics, which is only one factor.
Either one of 2, 8 or 9 axes is far better than a single “left/right” spectrum.
