And only serves to defend the western white Bourgeoisie from the much more serious and theory-oriented “tankies” whom gather their theory from actual research and actual dialecticism. In the past and the present, they’re perhaps the biggest force advocating anti-communist narratives.
What do you consider “western leftism?” I was under the impression the term “tankie” refers to a subset of western leftists as well.
“Western Leftism” is more or less the leftism of the US, the UK, and of Bourgeois countries in general. Generally, it leans into libertarian ideals, the majority of Anarchist and Libertarian ideologies come from Western countries, and the majority of them refuse to accept Marxist-Leninist or non-western ideologies. The vaaaaaaaaaast majority of WL idealize anti-communist propaganda and blindly trust in authors like Orwell. They strongly fought against “Soviet Socialism”, as well they’re currently joining in the charge against the PRC.
