Seeing much more tankie from ml lately

What is this linked to? Not opening for me.

Edit: nevermind. I opened it in my browser. I wonder if I have this community or person blocked in Boost for Lemmy.

Copied with some formatting:

You can see on ProleWiki what Lemmygrad.ml’s stances are, in their words, and why. Their article on the Russian Federation backs up what you’ve said, they believe it is extremely reactionary with horrifying treatment of LGBTQ people and is currently ruled by the Nationalist party, but critically support Russia insofar as it opposes Western hedgemony and Imperialism, and no more than that.

Critically, Lemmygrad, Hexbear, and much of Lemmy.ml see Lenin’s definition of Imperialism as the number one obstacle in Socialism’s advance, that is, the state in Capitalism where Imperialist countries export machinery and finances to the third world in order to super-exploit outsider populations for super-profits domestically. This is a necessity within Capitalism to combat the Tendency for the Rate of Profit to Fall. It’s the concept of unequal exchange.

Now, of course you do not have to agree with Lemmygrad or Hexbear or Lemmy.ml, but as someone who regularly sees these posts, there are no delusional posters who somehow think the Russian Federation is still Communist or that Putin is secretly rebuilding the USSR.

ProleWiki: Political line

We are guided by Marxism-Leninism, mainly the works of Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels and Vladimir Lenin. Based on that, ProleWiki upholds the currently developing dictatorships of the proletariat in:

Republic of Cuba
People's Republic of China
Democratic People's Republic of Korea
Socialist Republic of Vietnam
Lao People's Democratic Republic

Really‽ They hold North Korea in high regard? I can see liking some of what Cuba, China, and Vietnam have done, but NK? I don't know enough about Laos to comment.
