I can't use the search function on this site to save my ass so I'll just type it up again:

I say fuck them all. Call me a tankie. I'm more or less ML in my leanings and philosophy and the whole vanguardism bit. I am by all definitions of the term "a tankie" from the sniveling liberal worm who only found out the term because of reddit and the historical grievances about IS-3s rolling through Hungary. All it confirms for me is that I have drawn my line in the sand. At least I'm sticking to my fucking principles. I can't go un-read Lenin to satisfy the brainworms of the terminally online. My ship has sailed. Damn year 40 years on this planet and nothing made more sense to me than classic theory. It would injure my soul to betray my own self. Do I define myself as a Tankie? No. Do I care what other people call me, this shiftless amorphous term that means nothing when you boil it down to the bones? Fuck no.
