I don't. Then again, nor do I necessarily associate capitalism with class based cleavages. I'd say in recent years (100 or so) there has been a disintegration in class divides in the UK for example. I don't think the problem is completely resolved, but we're moving in the right direction.

Hello comrade. Just seen your thread re. Romania and have made a reply, would be fascinated to see your sources

Yea, I don't remember where I found that photo but it's basically the best summary of Orthodox Trotskyism ever. But I think it trancends Trotskyism a bit and can be used against any sect that spends more time defending one section of the bourgeois against the other than it does on actual political work. Sometimes I think that our orthodox comrades need to read some fucking Lenin on revolutionary defeatism.

But yea, on subject. Really my whole problem with Trotskyism is it's insistence on orthodoxy and the purity of theory over the necessary creative development of marxism. Also the sectarianism. I love how they denounce all other sects as not being "real communists" or "Stalinists" and end up cooperating with reformist parties out of their hatred of "dee revisonistss!11! (basically the most hilariously ironic manifestation of this tendency is the International Marxist Tendency

I support strict population planning policies after the global Bolshevik-style power grab. Among other things.

I tire of your showmanship, why don't you provide some substance

i suppose y'all really find it so hard to substantively reply to actual arguments that these tactics are required. and all within a few days, hm? do you guys sit around a coffee table deciding your next move?

tbh I'm a critical fan of the Weekly Worker and Mike Macnair--I don't think the Rev Marxists on this board to them/him much justice at all, sadly...

I am a highly trained anti-capitalist revolutionary. All of you are individualist lifestylist scum compared to me!

Wouldn't you agree that this whole left-com sideshow really is a sideshow compared to the meat and bones of program and strategy?

Welcome to small-r revolutionary Marxism, comrade.
