I have very little about Leon Trotsky and would like to know a bit more about his life and work. So I wanted to ask if anyone knows a good documentary I could watch?

John Thompson
Idiot internationalist that got an axe to the head by the true alpha

I'd recommend The Prophet trilogy for a biography of him. Definitely read his works though.Literature and Revolution is probably one of my favorites and is a good read.
Asher Gomez
Reading is for the bourgeois. True proletarians are illiterate.
Blake Russell
This board in a nutshell.
Nicholas Cook
See
Will check it out
Yes, I'm aware of The Prophet but it's more a long-term project. Just wanted some short intro documentary (if that's even possible)
Landon Fisher
I really liked the book "Rise & Fall Of A Revolutionary", it has more of a storyteller narrative so it's an easier read.
While looking for a link for you, I saw they made it into a documentary! Lucky you. youtube.com

lel no
No one likes Trotsky except Trots, so there's no general introduction that isn't riding his dick. Permanent revolution is Trotsky in a nutshell though.
Isaiah Baker
ty.
Like I said, I don't know much about him but why does everyone dislike him?
Thanks for the upload. I guess I'll get some reading done.
Dylan Diaz
I think documentaries are possibly the worst way to inform yourself about Soviet affairs in general, not only those regarding Trotsky.
Julian King
Trotskyists. Dialectical, ain't it?
More seriously, permanent revolution seems less like an explanatory theory and more like a revelation of the motor force of world revolution. That's the major objection against it, from what I recall. Trotsky has also caught a lot of shit for his theory of uneven and combined development. I know even less about that. Most of what i know about Trotsky has come from trots and anti-trots. He's certainly a contested figure thanks to all that shit.

Yes? If literature isn't your main source of information your perspective on affairs will always be limited, which is something a regular pleb can afford but not a fucking communist.

If you are too lazy to read, you faggot, listen to this audiobook with intro by Zizek: mariborchan.si
Ryder Wright
oh yeah, no doubt. I just like having documentaries on in the background while working, it's easy for me to absorb info like that. ofc it should also be supplemented with reading, but documentaries give a good general overview and I'll sometimes learn interesting trivia from them.
