Hello everyone. I am Comrade Trotsky (the user name comes from me being too lazy to think of a more creative name :lol:)

Im a longtime lurker here, but I just recently decided to become more active within the community, start posting more, ect. I look forward to getting to know you all better.

I guess I'll do the rest of this thing by the book.


Where are you from, whats the leftist scene there like?

Tennessee, and it's not too good. We do have a pretty active AntiFa community that is state wide, but I would say that it's more of an organization of leftists, than a leftist organization, if that makes sense.

What branch of leftism do you subscribe to?

Eh.. It's kind of hard to put some arbitraty label on my type of leftism I subscribe to, but If I had to, I guess one could say that I am a Council Communist with Anarchist sympathies (although I do belong to the CWI).

How did you become a leftist

To be honest, I don't remember a time when I wasn't one. Iv always held leftist beliefs, but I didn't really get into the "leftist scene" untill I was about 15 or 16. I am now 21.



Thats about all I can think of to say at the moment. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask.

Quick question... when will I be able to post replies without them having to be looked at by moderation staffs first?

Im afraid that by the time they're looked at and passed through, what I have said will have already became irrelevent to the discussion at hand :(

Don't worry about it, most of the discussions here do not take place in real time, so you should be fine more often than not.

And welcome to the boards.

Edit: I just realized that you are a post over the 10 that are moderated, so sorry for the redundancy there.
