    Not necessarily, Leninists and OG Marxists usually don’t get lumped in with Tankies - while Trotskists definitely should be. Tankies accept blatant authoritarianism as an acceptable cost to achieve socialism, non-Tankies reject authoritarian regimes.

    … and super-Tankies are Pol Pot apologists.

      Thank you! It’s all about that authoritarianism.
