Being anti-tankie does not make you anti-communist.

Tankie usually refers to Marxism-Leninism (as well the ideologies that derived from it such as Maoism). But there are communist ideologies that don't derive from ML such as Orthodox Marxism, trotskyism, libertarian Marxism, bulshevism, etc.

How would Trotskyism be any less "authoritarian" Than marxism leninism ? Also almost every claims on some level to be "orthodox marxist", lenin most of all and MLs as well
