At this point, Trotskyist is basically a term for Marxists who don’t like the USSR and the other governments it inspired.

Trotskyism is often seen as a slippery slope to other, crazier ideas. Posadism is an offshoot of Trotskyism. Some Trotskyists believed revolution would be easier under Imperialism than Stalinism, and became neocons. However, these vary from one of Trotsky’s greatest personal beliefs: that the deformed workers state is preferable to a bourgois state. Thus, most manifestations of Trotskyism no longer have any attachments to Trotsky as a theorist.

As a historical figure, he’s become a rallying point for those who support socialism, but are not comfortable with what they’ve heard about Stalin and other Marxist regeimes. Supporters of those governments see Trotskyists as ideologically compromised by Imperialist propaganda and justify their extreme hatred of Trots with the historical examples of those who turned against socialism.

Well, yes. Conservatives often fetishize lesbians. They’re probably worried they’ll run out of lesbian porn.

“You care about this? LET ME USE IT TO WIPE MY ASS!!!” is an objectively tasteless joke.

“Lol. Muhammad GAY!!!” is an objectively tasteless joke.

I’m not going to get into the murder itself. It’s obvious who’s innocent and who’s guilty, and I’d say they handled it well. The teacher did well, the pigs killed the bad guy, and then the French just. Kept. Going.

The guilty party is dead. They’re not going to see this. These cartoon projections will only be seen by innocent people, Muslim and non-Muslim alike. So what’s going on? They’re insulting a whole religion in response to an act of terror. If any Chud did this, we’d rightfully call it out as an act of racism, or at least old Chapo would. Instead, the government is doing it. They’re going out of their way to violate the practices and sensibilities of a minority they’ve been persecuting for centuries and which continues to suffer violent hate crimes to this day.
