      No? Maoists and Marxist-Leninists (aka Stalinists) are tankies, but Marxists are not.

        Why are Marxist-Leninists the same as Stalinists? I don’t think Lenin would have been too excited about Stalinism

          Marxism–Leninism was developed from Bolshevism by Joseph Stalin in the 1920s based on his understanding and synthesis of classical Marxism and Leninism.

          -Wikipedia. The term Marxist-Leninism was coined by Stalin to give legitimacy to his ideas.
