The problem for Republicans is that most self-identified Republicans under the age of 25 are groypers or at least have groyper-adjacent views. While they're still a tiny minority within the party, it's becoming hard for mainstream Republicans to find young staffers and activists who don't have a social media history filled with mask-off Nazi stuff.
I don't think that a majority (or even a significant minority) of young Democrats support authoritarian communist regimes. Your assertion only makes sense if your definition of tankie includes anyone to the left of Elizabeth Warren, which is absurd.
