Vlad the Red Warrior I would but I'm too busy laughing at the collapse of the Marxist-Leninist regime's worldwide and the universal hatred of Stalin, and his sheer socioeconomic and military idiocy.
МАТИ АНАРХІЯ What has Trotsky ever done? Try and fail to work with the Nazis? Marxism-Leninism has yet to fall, and it will only fall to Communism. Also that "idiocy" essentially single-handedly defeated the Nazis and established a global super power, one that the US and Britain felt they needed to make serious consessions to, by 1945. The country brought the revolution to all of Eastern Europe, Trotsky had an ice pick in his brain, being noteworthy only in that he created the most annoying sect of the left since anarchists.
ash3 Trotsky forged the very Soviet Union you so love with his sheer military strategic genius, he lead a working class and peasantry to secure the October Revoluon against every single state and private power imaginable. While Stalin was on the sidelines of the entire manner, both during and before the Revolution, Trotsky was a frontline leader in the Communist movement, both figuratively and literally. Stalin was a complete idiot, his military achievement of winning World War 2 was first of all not his, since the Soviet generals were the one's who made the true strategic calls, while Stalin and his commissars stabbed them in the back constantly for political and ideological stranglation. This totalitarian strategy of obedience, control and inhumanity is indistinguishable from the Tsarist policies that took place during World War 1, in fact it was more efficient in its totality, as the space for disobedience was much more limited. Soldiers did shoot the commissars, officers and bureaucrats from time to time, but the totalitarian boot crushed the humanity of the soldier. The brutality of Stalin's policies, be it the no retreat policy or commissars shooting soldiers in the back who made the slightest move back, was in fact one of the policies that caused the Soviets needless suffering. The idea of the tactical retreat or any form of strategic maneuvering was abandoned for the odea of the propaganda war, endless hordes of untrained men unwillingly selling their lives for the Stalinist ideology, the ideology which raped their soul, mind and finally their life. This all however, is nothing compared to the purges that Stalin committed, some of the most experienced men and women in all of Europe, men who fought in the Eastern Front of World War 1, took part in both 1917 Revolutions, who fought in the bloodiest Civil War in history, these men and women who could've not only saved millions who died under our own time, but spread Soviet control much further. It's true, that the Soviet Union was a superpower in an incomprehensibly short period of time, however that came at the cost of millions of lives, and was in fact more or less vastly inefficient when compared to a system that would be industrially democratic in nature, which does increase productivity even more than Capitalist systems. The productivity in the Soviet Union was in some ways, a complete lie, as the absurd quotas forced by the regime were marked much higher than what was actually produced. The USSR after World War 2 was the one giving major concessions to the West, not the other way around, Stalin's abandonment of the Greek Communists was so he could keep the friendship with the West. It was not only the Greeks he abandoned, it was the French and Italian Communists, along with the entire anti-fascist resistance which was almost entirely Communist, that held an incredible amount of credibility after the war. In France and Italy the Communist Party's actually won the elections however he did nothing because he did not care for any "Revolution", he considered them outside the sphere of Russian interests and thus the West took care of the anti-fascist movement and elections through violence and sabotage, which was given blessing by Stalin. The control over Eastern Europe was for the Russian buffer zone against the West, it has nothing to do with the "Revolution". Watch "the Russian mindset" it's a video on Russian geography and the implications it has on its politics and geopolitics, it's apolitical too so don't worry I'm not sending you propaganda. Stalin was willing to concede all of East Germany to the West, a new demilitarized Germany that would liberal parliamentarian in structure and it's economy a Capitalist one, so much for the ''revolution" huh? He also crushed the East German uprising, which was a grassroots Socialist movement that was democratizing the factories, and establishing Socialism, that was crushed alongside the numerous Socialist uprisings in Eastern Europe. The majority of Socialist uprisings in Europe actually occurred in the Eastern Bloc, be it the Hungarian Revolution or East German Uprising. it's ironic you say Trotsky worked with Fascists, considering that Stalin invaded Poland together the Nazi's and you can see pictures of Soviets and Nazi's together with both their propaganda pieces, and even them matching together. Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini and even FDR deeply admired eachother, the former three the most. Mussolini was deeply pleased with the rise of Stalin, saying that he turned "International Bolshevism into a form of Slavic Fascism", Stalin too was very fond of the Fascists and of Hitler himself. Though of course he kept that private and only to his commissars, as did the Fascists, for obvious reasons, rhetoric was combative. Stalin's policies were one of the reason's why the Facsists gained power, by denying any form of alliance with the social democrats by labeling them "social facsist" the Nazi's took over. The Stalinist KDP had at time's even collaborated with the Nazi's, as opposed to the social democrats. Whatever information you get is straight off the back pages of Pravda or Soviet broadcast, nothing of it is factual and is absolute Stalinist garbage. It's only accepted by Stalinists, no one else, because they are the only one's willing to take the propaganda pill that cleanses the mind of facts. It's no different from how neo fascist propaganda works, facts are considered bourgeois or Jewish, and the propaganda regurgitated is considered the truth, this creates not only a fantasy world but the destruction of the mind. It's Orwellian, Orwellian indeed. Also who the hell says Trotskyists and Anarchists are annoying? Stalinists? what utter garbage, that is some subjective ass bullshit that holds no fucking ground and you obviously use it because you have nothing else to use there is no such thing as the Left anymore, it's been destroyed by people like you, I'm sorry to say.
