Are they really editing publications?
I am fairly certain Marxists.org is run by trotskyites, unfortunately.
Evidence dump
Note how Trotsky is presented here.
Compare it to how they present Stalin.
In their Library, here are but a few examples of them using “Stalinist” this same way.
Everybody’s favorite anti-Stalinist hero…
They offer such an invaluable service. They are also, unfortunately, insufferable.
Pièce de résistance, here they are not only being obnoxious Trotsky stans, but also racist.
Racism goes with the Troskyite territory. Take this, for example, from Trotsky’s “If America Should Go Communist” (1934):
I don’t quite feel like subjecting myself to the text itself (I’m on a workbreak, I’ll probably remember later and source it), but I’m almost certain Trotsky thought Afrikan-Amerikans spoke a different language lol.
IIRC he was asked if black Amerikans constituted their own nation and deserved support in their self-determination thereof.
Ah, nevermind. Here we are. Top ten Trotsky quote.
Fair enough for a Soviet politician not to know every facet of Amerikan race issues, I suppose. Still… I can’t deny how silly this is, and knowing this little probably should have prevented him from speaking on the issue at all.
