    "Trotskyism" is only useful as a cynical way to alienate contemporary political dissent from any identification between attempts at creating proletarian states & anti-capitalist "theorizing" today

      Yeah some groups definitely call everything they don't like Trotskyite, and it gets appropriated osmotically into other spaces (like Ben Norton using it as an insult in grayzone articles lol).

        i remember being called a "Kautskyite" by a much more staunch ML person on the sub and it made me do a double take.

        I really think that's a better catch-all term hehe
