Tankies are people who support the Soviet intervention in Hungary in 1956
I have no opinion at all on that coz I know nothing about it.
crazy how Khrushchev is technically a tankie
"he's a tankie, because he won't go at the rate of revisionism that we want him to!"
I will tell you a secret
Khrushchev is seen positively in the middle east including by people who did support the USSR and people who didn't support communism due to stuff like the triple alliance on egypt and the USSR's role in helping cuba and Egypt ,the other reason is that propaganda against him is way less prevalent than the likes of Stalin and Mao
