Trotsky

Is it true that Trotsky was some kind of racist white nationalist?

"race-nation line" etc.

How are you doing, Holla Forums?

Why does he always look somewhat confused in each photo?

I'm doing okay. Thinking about giving up on the whole cuckservatism gig because there is no market solution to the destruction of wage labour from AI.

He was always trying to figure out what the opposite of whatever Stalin was doing and say that is what socialists should be doing.

I recommend you check out this thread/article

I don't see how that's relevant. It's obvious that capitalism will end now, not necessarily that socialism and communism will supplant it.

One eye on the bitches, the other one on Stalin

What are your thoughts on distributism?

It discusses the destruction of the proletariat through cybernetics and the solution to the problem of capitalism. Capitalism will end but if we stick to the dogmatism of the past, it will end the same way that cancer ends, with the death of it's host.

America has been ruled by crypto-Trot neocons since the Reagan era

Seems to be what I want. Mincome.


The elites can't even get universities to teach the current orthodoxy.

Academia isn't where these kinds of ideas ferment. I'm referring to those that strive for social change and have learned about Marx, Kropotkin etc but don't strive to go beyond their ideas

"Stirner was racist, Bakunin and Proudhon anti-semitic, Engels and Stalin homophobic, blah blah, so on and so forth…" completely irrelevant, isn't the basis of their theories.

Like this is literally what I hear from leftists on fb.

No he wasn't.

...

No durr.

Not at all. The whole perpetual revolutuon thing was about each proletariat settling matters with its own national bourgeoisie, but beyond that he was a soolid internationalist.

Like Nietzche, many of his so-called sexist/racist statements were sarcastic and people took them seriously.

...

So he was literally Holla Forums.

Nazis and other reactionaries always accuse Trotsky of inventing the term "racism" so I doubt it

I was going to make a joke that went
But then I remembered the posadists.
