In what way am I a Tankie? What i meant was, that given the exclusive cases, the size of their economies and their special histories, i believe they are exceptions to your definition.

I am not a Tankie, I am not a Marxist-Leninist. I can't imagine what would possess someone into believing it is appropriate to reply "STFU " to a good-faith response to your comment on a thread about the truthfulness of Marx.

I am a Marxist, and thought it would be fun to interrogate your views on this public forum. But I believe you are on some shit

How could I reply to you in a way that is both up front about my own ideas but also discussing your ideas, so that I don't have to be treated like some disgusting pest? Be real
