Greetings, comrades!

I'm a non-sectarian Marxist that has just found this online community! I'm a Cleveland, Ohio based revolutionary communist looking to connect with like minded individuals. My political ideology has historically been of a Trotskyist nature, but following a closer examination of Kronstadt and democratic centralism in regards to the Soviet experiment has led me to drop the moniker.

I'm a subscriber to Jacobin magazine and my reading experience has largely revolved around Progress Publisher's Lenin's Selected Works and Marx and Engels' Selected Works as well as the Marxists' Internet Archive.

Welcome. Dropping defenders of democratic centralism and the Kronstadt massacre from your ideology represents real 'Progress'.

Thank you for the welcome. While Trotsky is still one of my personal heroes, and Leninist thought has been central to my development as a Marxist, I've grown to see that the Revolution was first betrayed in Kronstadt. If there is to be any true revolution we must all fight together and the true vanguard of the coming world must be the anarcho-communists. We must learn to co-operate and co-exist or we will forever toil under the oppression of either capitalist or bureaucrat.
