Marxism-Leninism, the strain of Socialism most often associated with the term “tankie,” is fundamentally democratic. Are you saying you’re Reformist and anti-revolution, or do you prefer a specific model of democracy over others?
Yes, it is. It originated as a slur against the British Communists in the CPGB that sided with the USSR against the fascists in the 1956 Hungarian counterrevolution. The rebels lynched hundreds of Communist Party members and released fascists from prison to help overthrow the Communist leadership. This was national defense, by definition.
I mean shit I already don’t want to ever watch a video, like I’d rather read 20 Pages than watch 20 seconds of your video. Then they throw in tankie.tube? Like custom made for me not to want to click this thing.
Tankie.tube? I like my instances like I like my socialism, democratic.

Nothing says democracy like a tank.
That’s not a point, it’s just a quip. Do you think you can create Socialism without a military to defend itself?
National defense is not what the “tank” in tankie refers to.

Do you have an actual point, or just quips?
