Communists and fascists are diametric opposites. Communists seek to collectivize production and distribution to fulfill the needs of everyone. Fascists seek the preservation of private property and the extermination of labor organizers. Lazily equating the two and doing nothing to back it up is just "enlightened" centrism.
Good thing I didn't say communist then
"I said commie, not new deal Democrat!"
Same sentence, new era
"Tankie" is just a pejorative for communist, though. That's like saying you said "commie," not "communist."
It isn't
It is, though. "Tankie" isn't an ideology, it's a pejorative typically used against Marxists that serves as a strawman of Marxist beliefs.
Nah, I don't think Marx would like tankies
Marx was a tankie, lol. Shows you've never actually read him
Why not? Marx supported the Paris Commune, and was critical of them for not going far enough to solidify the revolution. Marx supported communists and revolutionaries, he was an organizer himself.
Good luck. This person is recalcitrant in her position while never bringing arguments or receipts. You’re likely to get nothing but a broken record.
I assume so, but you never know 🤷
