  • Leaves are underrated.

    1. I don't know about that, but given your name, I would need a neutral source. I know, I know, neutral is capitalist propaganda to you.
    2. I know MLs that are critical towards the PRC and DPKRK. I am not equating Tankies with all MLs, because those two are different terms. "Their critique comes from a sympathetic position" implies there is critique of those, which I haven't seen amongst those that like the PRC. Any time you criticize China, they roll out in defense, so it's hard to see the criticism of it. See next.
    3. Why do Tankies tell me that the reason China has so many billionaires is because they're controlled by the party? Isn't that fascist mode of production? Also, having lots of public ownership while permitting private ownership is just social democracy, and no one of us claims Norway is any way socialist because of that. In fact, the Tianmen Square incident, that for a lot of you is fake news, was driven by Maoists who were protesting the turn from Maoism to a market economy.
    4. Hard to argue that when the term "color revolution" is used on any act against the non-Western powers that be. It's funny you claim that the Iranian MLs need to resist attempts at monarchy, when they condemned the Ayatollah's actions Tankies claimed they were CIA pawns suddenly. There is nothing about Khomeini that is "building worker power".
    5. Workers having state power is not enough, just like workers becoming owners doesn't bring on communism, a worker turned politician will also act more like a politician than a worker, and by such act centralizing the power. This is what essentially happened in all ML and derivate states, no matter if ML, Maoist or any other such ideology. The solution is to create a true dictatorship of the proletariat, in building a socialist society that the people will be willing themselves to defend. That means liberation, and not oppressing.

    And don't claim MLs and derived are the only Marxists. There are non-authoritarian forms of Marxism, like Luxemburgism, Autonomism and Dutch Left-Communism/Council Communism. The ML-derivate dominion on Marxism has hurt Marxism more than it helped it.

  • It is one of the three major Tankie federations. Lemmygrad, Hexbear, and .ml. For starters, Tankie is a term originated as a pejorative on those that advocated for the Warsaw Pact invasion into Czechoslovakia in 1968. Nowadays, Tankies happen to be uncritical towards places like China and North Korea, viewing them as good places that the CIA lies about to make socialism look bad (let's not mention that China is more corporatist, even in Tankie responses when you point out that billionaires in China are a thing), and lots of them also happen to be campists, aka people that support a country as long as it claims to be anti-US. Don't get me wrong, the US did a lot of shit that is not talked about, but when you claim to be a Marxist-Leninist and support the theocratic Iran over the Iranian MLs...

    And also, they love banning people they disagree with. Probably the most coherent thing about their ideology, given their authoritarianism.

  • Though, dbzer0 has been overtaken by Tankies as well. That may be part of the issue.
