The overwhelming majority of Marxists agree with Lenin's advancements on Marxism, be they Marxist-Leninists or Maoists (not to be confused with the ideology of the CPC, which is ML). At that point, can they really be considered Marxist friendly?
I tend to understand marxism as a much broader philosophy. Ive been heavily influenced by Marxist anarchist and Marxist feminist writers that don't fall into much conversation with Leninism or maoism. So I guess my lived experience has shown otherwise to your assessment. But I also am interested in learning more.
I'm not sure what you mean by Marxist anarchists, as Marxism and anarchism have dramatically different frames of analysis, but in communist parties Marxism-Leninism is the most common tendency globally. Are you specifically referring to authors? If so, then you may be closer to the truth if we only consider English, but if we consider non-English languages Marxism-Leninism becomes more common.
