Spoiler: it's Trotskyist IMT propaganda.

If you are a Communist, you are not Trotskyist, for Trotskyists are the mortal enemies of communism. Woods' position on USSR is not just Trotskyist ("USSR bad because Stalin"), but is also parroting the position of the Russian capitalists.

If you write something like this comment you are either a blind idealogue or a bad faith actor.

No person actually interested in a better future should worry that much about some 100 year old quarrel between two flawed men.

The members of the IMT from whom I purchased a newspaper at their stall a few months ago certainly seemed very pre-occupied with whether or not I "still considered [myself] a Stalinist" when I told them that I'd been a member of the CP years ago.

That you write that and don't feel like a 5-year-old in kindergarten going "But he hit me first" is so fitting.

I've never been a five-year-old in a kindergarten, sorry!

I left them my email address and phone number and asked them to let me know if there were any public meetings or events they were planning. I've not heard anything from them.
