    I try not to do any sectarianism but it is a struggle when it comes to modern day Trots. I separate them completely from the actual historical legacy of Trotsky.

        :party-cat: "Well you see, I like to think of myself as an anti-sectarian leftist."

        :kitty-cri-texas: "Oh, what does that mean?"

        :pika-pickaxe: "It means I don't like trots."

        I do think there's a distinction between "org originally descended from trots" and "people who have looked at trotsky and the legacy of trotskyism and said 'yep, that's for me, I'm extremely into relitigating century old interpersonal grievances and wish to make it my entire identity'" however. Like the Chavistas are technically trots, but they're good; Socialist Alternative are trots but at least seem to be a respectable org that doesn't make "we're still mad about Trotsky" their whole deal; etc.

          They only get more right with every historical event.

            The meme ideologies becoming more relevant doesn't feel like a great omen tbh. By 2040 the Republican nominee will be a nazbol
