Original Note:
Writings of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels are not "tankie" texts as that group refers to Marxist-Leninists/ Stalinists. As Marx died in 1883 and Engels died in 1895, they were not alive when Lenin was in power. Lenin came to power in 1917 and while Stalin took power in 1924. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie?wprov=sfla1
