Well, you didn't describe them as brave freedom fighters trying to maintain true democracy in spite of western fascism, so that's a good sign.
In retrospect, I probably should have asked you about authoritarianism.
yes i oppose authoritarianism, but also all states are authoritarian. liberal authoritarianism is a far greater threat to my existence right now than any threat from the state enemies of the US
In my experience tankies say that authoritarianism is a made up concept to shit on the glorious USSR. So two points towards you not being a tankie.
