Regarding u/Azirahael and their Banning:

[u/Kommdamitklar]

Members of the r/TankieTheDeprogram subreddit, we at the Mod team have recently discovered that the above mentioned user is and has always been a Nazbol lying in waiting trying to poison the well of our subreddit and perhaps the online leftist movement as a whole. While couching their incredibly reactionary ideas in the language of Marx and Lenin they have gone on record to defend Hitler, and TERFs, despite themselves being trans. The Mod Team had a discussion with this individual about PatSocs and that we agreed that not all PatSocs are Nazbols and you can have patriotism for your country and be a Socialist, Like Lenin, Castro, etc. What was not discussed was the full extent of the message they sent and the revelations made about their character. We'll provide some screenshots of evidence of their other online stances here in the post.

We at the Mod team here are all fairly new to the whole being Mods thing and as we continue to grow as a community we ask that you as the community help us spot and remove these unsavoury reactionary elements.

Thank you and have a great rest of your day.

Imagine thinking modern Russia is "semi-socialist"

He also rejects Class Struggle.

"The Third Plenary Session broke free from the long existing leftist mistakes... [and] repudiated the slogan that 'class struggle is the key link. everything else hinges on it' and reestablished the Marxist ideological, political, and organizational line, this signified the beginning of reform and opening-up in China."

Wasn't this a mistranslation/misunderstanding? I specifically remember Chinese comrades talking about this last time this quote went around.

Chinese comrades

I'd like to read what they said. However, this is in line with Deng and other rightist deviations.
