@Radical_EgoCom Why trotskism and 4th International are criticizied ? 🤔

@Akira_Nozomi

Trotskyism is criticized primarily because of its impractical beliefs, particularly "permanent revolution," and its obsession with ideological purity and unwillingness to make compromises.

@Radical_EgoCom Ok, but what's the "permanent revolution" ? I didn't heard about this. And I misunderstand when you said "unwillingness to make compromises" 🥲

@Radical_EgoCom Hi. I’m new to reading communist theory. Is it worth my time to read Trotsky for the sake of historical context? What should I focus on the most as I develop in understanding?

@Radical_EgoCom If by this you mean "Trotskyism is a dumb cult that is promoted by Imperialist interests" I agree 10000%
