    no it usually refers to whatever the fuck the person posting it seems to think it is, there is not a coherent label for it.

    Why are you letting libs define everything? You and I both know they’re dumbasses and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

    Oh cool, which societies use those?

    Anyone could have said the same to Marx about communism at any point in his life, as he died before the October revolution.

      the difference is you named a bunch of dead ideologies that will never be revived, ML is literally the only form of marxism still flourishing

          how is that speculation, its material; Im only interested in ideologies with proven merit.

          Im willing to take a chance of a synthesis on a new idea, but it has to actually offer people something.

            It’s speculation because you don’t know what the future holds. And just because you’re not interested in a particular ideology or don’t think it has merit doesn’t make it any less communist.

            My only point is that words do in fact have meaning, Marxist-Leninism is not synonymous with communism. Therefore, one can be anti-tankie without being anti-communist.
