I've been doing antiwar protests since Iraq- absolutely massive and totally ignored by the government. It was a bit radicalizing.

I've always considered myself an anarchist. These days I get called a tankie just for being opposed to wars and vocally opposing my own governments complicity in genocide. Somehow the meaning of tankie got flipped to mean the people opposed to sending in the tanks. Most ml's I've known are the first people to shit on Khrushchev anyways.
