They each like to worship at their favorite hero shrine and do everything to demonize the others even though they are all very similiar. In a streotypical nutshell...
Trotskyiests ***** about just about everything and hate everyone.
All of the other three catagories are also Leninist, or are supposed to be at least... (Leninists are State-Socialist, and I'm one, in case you couldn't guess.)
Maoists tend to be nationalists and love personality cults.
Stalinists have a hard-on for all the genocidal dictators who claim to be communists, and have an unusal affection to the Command and Conquer videogame series.

For the most part, they are all fine people though, unless they just played too much C&C.

My advice to you is that you look up for yourself what they mean, you will only get biased views here and some websites will have a bias too.

Have a look around and after a while the general tenets of all should be apparent from the propaghanda.

For basic, yet comprehensive descriptions of several leftist terms, I'd advise you to look at 'The Anarchist Tension's" dictionary thread in Opposing ideologies.

MM:

Is this a joke? Have you any idea of reality outside of Che-Lives. What you just wrote is the impressions you get from people just like you that reside on Che-Lives, and they just like to claim they fall under these categories.

The funny thing is, I don't have the slightest clue what Comman and Conquer is. I am not a Stalinist, however I will bet you that someone who is strongly a Stalinist, is also in my position in that they haven't the slightest clue what Comman and Conquer is.

Do you even know what Trotskyism is? A trotskyist *****es about everyone. Are you joking me! A trotskyist would actually be farely liberal when it comes to issues in relation to their own.

Orange Monkey, take my advice. MidnightMaruader is basing this merely on his opinion of the thirteen year olds that he likes to argue with. You should just run a quick search on those. Like Geist said, anything heard on here will surely leave you with anothers bias.

The view of Trotskyist's espoused here at Che-Lives is akin to Stalinists viewpoints of Trotskyism in my opinion.

I LOVE Command and Conquer (okay, i've only played it like once). It was fun kicking the crap out of those damn cappies in the name of communism (sure, so it was the USSR, but i can pretend!) in the first level.
