This is extra funny because anarchism is about as modern as Marxism. And also modern MLs often accept DPRK as one or the "actually socialist" countries, so they wouldn't even be against Juche.

Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- No genocide denial
We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.
Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!
Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

I love how they're against Hoxhaism, given Hoxha's thing was dickriding Stalin and anti-Revisionism
"Everyone is revisionists except for me"
Mao is a joke to me. The above quote (which is his) goes on to say, "In present circumstances, revisionism is more pernicious than dogmatism."
So...
Mao: Marxism is universally true. Also Mao: Dogmatic Marxism is bad. Also Mao: Anything post-Marxism is revisionism, which is also bad.
If you can get through it, read On Contradiction to see just how many back-flips he does to make Marx's "dialectical materialism" into something that is neither dialectical nor material but a metaphysical fact of our world and all human progress (as if that's not revisionism).
