If one is an “anti tankie”, then it must follow that one must be against these kinds of policies.

Progressives and leftists DREAM of having these things. But they’re committed to being against the tankies.

They have yet to demonstrate how the masses are supposed to get these benefits by negotiating and appealing to the good graces of capitalists.

But they’re TERRIFIED at the prospect that the people.may do these exact things AT GUNPOINT. As if they know those guns are meant for them.

    Obligatory reminder that for example Zinoviev and Kamenev were expelled from the party three times before getting accused of treason, while just the stunt they pulled shortly before the revolution would be enough for them to meet the wall in every single capitalist country (and they weren’t even kicked out back then so not included in those three times).
