It is due to the stupidity and arrogance of the SWP.

"Naive minds think that the offfice of kingship lodges in the king himself.....as a matter of fact , the office of kingship is an interrealtion between people."

"Impotent before Large CAPITAL, the petty bourgeoisie hopes in the future to regain its social dignity by overwhelming the workers."

"What inexhaustible reserves they possess of darkness, ignorance, and savagery! Despair has raised them to their feet, fascism has given them their banner. Everything that should have been eliminated from the national organism in the course of the unhindered development of society comes out today gushing from the throat; capitalist society is puking up the undigested barbarism. Such is the physiology of National Socialism."


If only the SWP studied Trotsky as closely as they spout about political correctness and feminism and if only the anarchists understood class society!

Is it worth debating on Indymedia with these freaks who just want their faces on the internet carrying out "activism".

They claim to be "anarchists" yet have no idea about the working class, or is that just the nature of anarchism.

Yes, middle class students, university lecturers and other geeks and freaks pretending they are radicals.

Let's all have a riot, however the joy of smashing up a pig is short-lived, whereas the class struggle stille continues and the wheels of capitlist exploitation still turn.

Trotsky would be believable if Trotsky had not slaughtered the people in Kronstadt who were demanding what Trotsky himself had been arguing for in the Central Committee of the Communist Party the year before.

If you have to read Trotsky read his Defence of Terrorism (there is also another title depending where published) which was written before that mistake.

The thing to remember about the SWP is that they were telling people to vote Labour which put the Bloody Liar into Power. They spout Revolution but have no skill in the use of arms, and have none to use in any case. They are overtaken in the revolutionaty armament race by the Labour Party - one Labour Branch Official once had the book by Read on how to make explosives and lost a digit in a 'kitchen' accident.

Trotsky wrote this tract when Socialism was so alive in the National Socialist Party that within a year Hitler organised the Night of the Long Knives to kill the Socialist leadership in the National Socialist Party. He also slaughtered Homosexuals at the same time and applied that tar brush to the Socialists. Hitlerite is a much more accurate term of abuse than the 'Nazi' Churchill and other Capitalist Politicians so loved to use.

I just went back to reread and reloaded, the index says there is already one comment but it does not show as callable on page 364233.
