When the current government is not doing a very good job at maximizing the happiness of its citizens, it's a natural reaction to look for answers from a different type of government. America has some enormous problems with capitalism as it currently operates, and communism offers solutions to many of those problems. The issue is the top-down power structure. Democracy keeps the most power in the hands of the general population, and i will always oppose giving that up. Beyond that, I'm open to any solutions for modern problems, public or private.

Seriously speaking, YES.

“The modern revisionists and reactionaries call us Tankies, thinking that they insult us and, in fact, that is their aim. On the contrary, however, they glorify us with this epithet: it is an honour for us to be Tankies, because, since we were Tankies, the enemy could not conquer us, and never will conquer us as long as we remain Tankies.”

--Enver Hoxha, paraphrased.

(As far as Hungary is concerned, I don't advocate for anything that Khrushchev did)

Yes. I get called one everytime i defend or advocate for anything left of Bernie Sanders. "

"Communism is the riddle of history solved, and knows itself to be the solution."

Is as true today as it was when Marx wrote it almost 200 years ago.

This is a dumb question. That's like asking TERFs if they self-identify as bigots. They're going to respond that no, of course they aren't, they're just gender realists (or gender critical, or whatever).

YES

At least if we go off the Lemmy definition. I don't self identify.

No, don't know what it is either

i may or may not have a tanksona, but that doesn't make me a tankie.

No, i'm not a tankie, i wasn't even born yet in 1956 not to mention i'm not British.

NO

I've never even been called one erroneously.

NO, I’m also not from this instance for similar reasons

DEPENDS

Probably I'm neither a tankie nor not a tankie, but I like tossing grenades in these sorts of surveys.

NO. Communism is interesting, but I'm heavily anti-authoritarian.

The fuck is a tankie? Outside of Lemmy, I've never seen nor H6eard the word. I assume it's Lemmy slang for some group of people.

NO

I support their natural enemies, anarkiddies shall triumph!

no
