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
For all the revisionism of de-stalinization, most of that was propaganda. The economic and international policy of the USSR barely changed as a result of Khruschchyov. Cool analysis of this in "Is the red flag flying", by Albert Szymanski, looking at several economic and social indicators and arguing this as a conclusion.
