Okay someone, somewhere posted a video quite a while ago of a hilarious trot undergrad* flogging his party's paper at, I guess, some kind of demonstration; telling the cameraman all about how "we're not Stalinists" etc.

Please please someone tell me you know what I'm talking about, I can't find the damn thing

*This is not meant as trot-bait...maybe undergrad-bait

I'd give it the time it deserved if I knew where to find it and see it.

Yeah I am 99% sure it's one of those "You Tubes" but I couldn't track it down there :crying:

That Trot that you speak of needs to be taken and given a public slapping for his ridiculous behavior.

Needless/un-provoked displays of open sectarianism in public, and pandering to the sensabilities of bourgeois political analysis are harmful rather than helpful.

Reminds me of a Trot I saw at a demo once. There was 5,000 people at the demo, and this Trot was trying to start his own chant, while the rest of the marching procession were chanting the slogans pre-agreed upon by the organizing comittee.

Proudly wearing your sectarianism as a badge, to make yourself and your ideology seem more acceptable to liberal sensabilities, makes you a greater disgrace than the comrades that you are trying to hard to disassociate yourself from.

I think that depends on how lame the pre-agreed chant is, and how many people you can get to go along with your alternative. ;)

Oh, shit! That was me! I was soooooo drunk and had just smoked a joint of fine, pale sinsemilla. I had been standing there just listening to the harmonious bleat of pre-ordained chants, (as I use to as a child, growing up a Catholic and all) when suddenly, I was overcome by an irrestible desire to break out into my own joyful chant, my own paean to the fairy gods of Marxism: Trotsky, Che and Fidel!

This is how it started: Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, hey-he-heeeey, good-bye!
