      I was. I asked you to elaborate, then you deflected and asked what I thought you meant. I answered honestly, it wasn’t an accusation, it was what you literally asked for. Please respond in good faith.

        You accused me, with no basis, of being anti-communist rather than answering what you think I mean.

        I asked what you think I meant because I wanted to know whether you have a different view of this than I do or were simply uninformed. But between your accusations, your deflection, and your condescending responses to me, it’s becoming pretty clear to me that you’re not willing to discuss this in good faith. But maybe you can prove me wrong.

        Let’s start out with an easy one. What do you think I meant by “tankies”?

          You being anticommunist is what I thought you meant. Those aren’t unrelated.

          I have been acting in good-faith, you have been beating around the bush this entire time.

          Communists, Marxists, Marxist-Leninists, etc. Anyone that actually defends AES and doesn’t repeat US State Department Propaganda about the Global South.
