Its not just a lemmy thing. When communism was first created it was meant to stand for the common people. The power would be grabbed from the hands of the rich and given to the common people. Things like the state and companies would no longer be controlled by the rich upper class but instead be controlled by the common people. Over time society will no longer need things that capitalism once did, society would become stateless, classless, and money less. Tankies on the other hand think that normal people lack the power to speak for them selfs and need to be lead by someone who knows better. To tankies communism is something that can be forced and controlled. Do tankies sound like communists to you?
