    Why are capitalist bootlickers so quick to call all communists “tankies”?

      He’s not. I’m a communist and still acknowledge that China is a fuckjng awful place that’s commiting an array of human rights violations.

          The Republic Of China? Nothing

          The People’s Republic Of China? Their dictator and his party call themselves communist, that’s what they have to do with communism.

          The fact that their economic system has as much to do with communism as a Wall Street broker on crack in 2008 is another matter.
