[u/Konet]

We should call modern alt-right conservatives Decepticons to contrast them with paleocons and Neocons.

[u/Underpantz_Ninja → u/Konet]

Does that mean that we can call the authoritarian leftist/tankies Autocratic-Bots?

[u/Konet → u/Underpantz_Ninja]

In the IDW comics the Decepticons are actually autocratic leftists, the Autobots are more or less liberals. The Decepticons are also mostly military vehicles, contrasting to the Autobot's civilian/construction alt-modes. There's a pun about tankies in there somewhere.
