It’s funny you mention neoliberalism as a argument for being a Tankie, even though most ML states have adopted neoliberal policies. The market based reforms of China following the death of Mao were based around neoliberal principles to gain power in the system of global capitalism. It was a more nationalist approach, but neoliberalism has its tendrils all over many modern ML states.
I have no idea what point you’re trying to make here. The only coherent complaint fascists have about China is that they’re the enemy nation. I don’t give a fuck what they think, because most fascists don’t realize they want a ton of the same shit as current China.
It’s confusing that you claim to be a Tankie, yet don’t defend China. What do you actually think a Tankie is? A Marxist-Leninist?
Tankies don’t oppose. Then they wouldn’t be tankies, just edgy MLs. If you support the government crushing attempts to fight against the system, you’re effectively just the liberals who denounce anything beyond peaceful protest.
Actually, now that I think about it, you’d be worse than liberals, because voting is more useful in liberal democracies and legally protesting isn’t even allowed in ML states.
