The best thing about “tankies” right now is there really isn’t a singular marxist-leninist figurehead. Let’s say, I don’t know, Richard wolff was in the files? Our entire ideology isn’t tied to one old white dude so it wouldn’t matter much.
I was trying to think of an old man Marxist professor analogous to noam Chomsky. He is pretty frequently on Brian beckers show “the socialist program” and isn’t becker on the PSL central committee?
Becker is one of the founders of PSL when they split from WWP. It’s difficult to pinpoint Wolf’s exact ideology, because he seems to present some co-op road to Socialism to a mostly America audience… He did call Mao a great Revolutionary, and seems to have a positive view of modern China.

Just because Marx and Lenin are dead doesn’t make them not two old white dudes (with the caveat that alot of tankies love Mao who only met 2 of 3 of those criteria)

Well, they weren’t in the Epstein files at least.
