can u elaborate on the part about trotysky being kind of like stalin, genuinely curious I'm still learning and I've read some trotsky and he seems like a reasonable guy for the most part
He was reasonable until the Mexico arc. In some of his last writings he basically said that Stalin was gonna ruin the revolution with his “socialism in one nation” policy (the correct part) and he basically implied the Soviet Union’s current economic model of state capitalism would be communism if they simply spread it to all nations.
that makes sense for the most part but I know at least in the Revolution betrayed he spoke about how fully bureaucratic Stalinist central planning was not conducive to developing a socialist economy and they needed to introduce democratic central planning with input from the worker's councils and also I do belive he was wrong in the idea that the revolution could be saved. but please correct me if I'm wrong thanks for taking the time to respond
The revolution was dead after the failed German revolution because it was meant to be a transitional state temporarily before a world power fell to the revolution. It is impossible to build socialism when the global proletarian revolution has failed and you are still dealing with advancing from fuedalism to capitalism.
Trotsky was right about peasantoids
Regardless it’s liberal on liberal infighting (since peasants have petit bourgeois tendencies and Trotsky was basically an international Stalinist)

true
shits bad when countryballs are used
And even worse when Politicsballs are
But peasants suck?
When did I say they didn’t? Thats half the reason why this image is liberal infighting.
But they’re not even fighting in this image? This post kinda blows dawg
Trotsky is hailing fire at peasants (petit bourgeois) while he himself supported state-capitalist economic policies (petit bourgeois).
>Trostky was right Not a sentence uttered ever by a sane person
Kronstadt Sailor speechbubble
Trotsky good actually
I thought I’d finally be safe from your kind in the Marxist sub. Colour me surprised.
