WFT is wrong with you?
I read books ๐ฑ๐ฑ
i've read marx. at precisely no point does he say anything justifying the various atrocities state capitalist countries have committed. i think he's wrong about some stuff, but even if you accept that his word is gospel, tankies are still just people who took leftist principles as an excuse for the imposing the kind of brutal authoritarianism that leftists are supposed to be against.
If you've read Marx, then you've surely read Engels as well?

you expect liberals or anarchists to have read the ENTIRE PAMPHLET, if they did that how would they be able to blindly call us athoritarian, with no real understanding of the word.
yes i have, and his argument is fucking stupid. marx is all right, but i straight-up hate engels.
what do you hate about him?
yes i have, and his argument is fucking stupid. "oh yeah???? well doing stuff is authoritarian!" isn't the own you tankies seem to think it is.

Very clearly not history books.
