Khrushchev really didn’t make any substantial changes to the Soviet Economy and what he did he ended up mostly reversing . Malenkov wanted a larger turn to consumer industry then Khrushchev did.

Trotsky opposed the continued war in Poland which Lenin supported. Trotsky grouping was not motivated by cutting a deal with germany violating internationalism the arguments made at the time disprove this, but by the idea it woupd net the best deal. The fact germany wanted to move troops to the west and the idea of there being turmoil that wouls make invasion impossible.

If you posted that quote then you must think somehow it is a response right to it? Which probably means you have the silly idea that permanent revolution means revolution in all the countries at the same thing which it is not.

idk why did you share the quote?

The whole “trotskyist to conservative pipeline” is more a meme then anything. Robert Conquest the commited anti-communist was a member of the CPGB a ML party when he was in college. sometimes people are interested in communism in college and go reactionary.

Cool, Trotsky wouldn’t disagree, in fact he says in the theory of permanent revolution that less developed countries will have revolutions sooner. Trotsky in 1905 argued that Russia was ready for revolution.

About a decade ago I was a Christian-Socialist, after becoming more atheist I spoke online with some Marxist-Leninists and became one for like 6ish years was planning on joining the PSL in College, eventually read more Lenin and Soviet History and became a Trotskyist and that’s when i actually joined a party and got more active in doing things.
