Eehhh ok yea that's bad

See I actually agree with you, I don't like Leninists, but I distinguish between Leninists who believe in their vanguard parties and Tankies who think the strongmen who come out of them are a good thing.

I don't like Leninists but there's a difference between their idea of a workers state and what happened in the Soviet Union. I do think their intention matters even if the historical outcomes have been bad

Describing Stalin as Counterrevolutionary reads to me that they're not a tankie
