No, they're tankies.
It's a description of morons that think authoritarian rule and/or genocide is ok if the people doing claim to be communists despite having no relation to the ideology. Those people aren't communists, at best they are lying to themselves.
(Yes, I get it. You're a tankie)
Was Marx a tankie?
No, he just failed to account for people. I see this is where the sealioning starts so I'm out. Have fun jerking off to another genocide with your tankie friends.
What do you mean by this?
Marx is more hard-line than Stalin.
If they're both "tankies", then I think we're clear that the term is just base red-scare anti-communism.
Edit: "sealioning is when I have to defend arguments I've repeated but don't actually understand"
