What don't I think
Adam Sullivan
He was right all along
Jayden Young
^
Robert Murphy
Greatest socialist theoretician to ever live
Jack Ortiz
He was a big theorist.
Evan Edwards
One of the greatest revolutionaries to ever live.
Great military mind and great writer
Carson Bailey
The most important thing to know about trotsky is that he was the kind of man to keep a bust of his own head in his office
Robert Clark
If somebody made a bust of my head, I'd keep it.
Lincoln Davis
unlike stalin, who became tsar 2.0
Jason James
...
James Richardson
what makes you say that?
Matthew Wood
The fact that he had a bust of his own head made lmao
Sebastian Evans
dunno if you're joking, but the bust was prolly added after he died
Logan Lopez
no his house is a museam now, the office is wear he was attacked and they kept it exactly as it was that day
Carter Adams
Absolutely based.
His article about political movements, literature, his time in the Balkans as well as his early analysis on Hitler (when most people thought he would be just another conservative) are still very readable.
The man had courage, balls with no sign of defeatism in whatever he did.
Jace Nelson
Huh wow
Jaxson Martin
Trotsky never split with himself.
Carter Barnes
This is actually my position tbh, the man himself was cool and did a lot of great things but trotskyism is a theoretically nonsensical personality cult and more about the physcology of it's followers than anything else, if things had gone a different way in the twenties these people would be calling themselves stalinists and saying everything went wrong when trotsky got in
Jace Richardson
Good writer, good military commander.
No one cares.
Daniel Jones
God-tier hair. Look at that fucking volume.
Carter Reed
his ideas were pretty solid and some of the stuff he did was good some of it was bad
what if stalin and trotsky could get along ?
Oliver Hughes
David Nguyen
Well he wasn't right on everything but literally every place he and stalin disagreed he was right and stalin was wrong.
Landon Wood
reminds me of the glorious leader's hair
Benjamin Miller
Not all Trots are bad.
James P. Cannon was absolutely based
Lucas Reed
He would've been just another tankie but the fact that he didn't hold any significant power for very long vindicates him in the eyes of most leftists
Elijah Hall
his personal correspondence with his wife is pretty good
especially that part where he promises to tongue-fuck her
David Sanders
Why live?
Nolan Hill
Wow, was The Believer right about Jews and cunnilingus?
Easton Edwards
p good just don't trust him too much
Thomas Edwards
Trots ruin everything. Just look at r/socialism.
Luis Gomez
Bitch, please.
Austin Watson
good dude good writings good theories, bad followers
Henry Adams
...
Caleb Reed
And that fucking hairline never changed. Jelly.
Liam Cruz
Can I find his articles from the Balkans available anywhere in english, or spanish?
I've been curious about them since I read the Prophet Armed but I found almost nothing.
William Nelson
Can't argue with that
Gabriel Anderson
Not exactly uncommon. I remember years and years ago now someone on some political forum I frequented made the point that the majority of modern Trotskyists are just the sort of people Trotsky would have had lined up against a wall and shot.
Aiden Ross
Seriously though why is everyone so afraid of Trotskyites?
Noah Harris
I'll give you a hint.
It starts with 'K' and ends with 'ronstadt'.
Logan Cox
literally no one gives a shit about that except 17 year old anarchist dweebs who can't even find Kronstadt on the map
Henry Cox
Proof that you can be a "Marxist theorist" without an atom of economic thinking in you. He claimed fiat currency impossible and wanted a gold standard for the USSR. He claimed the train network should be run as separate parts responsible for their "own" success. He was a total spaz.
