			{{li\|I=S2/IV\|tradition=MX onto IV\|Q=618}}If Trotskyists wanted to stop imperialism in Cuba, the smart thing to do would not be to align themselves with the United States -> it leaves me heartened yet baffled that real-world Trotskyists have actually sort of figured this out... at least somewhat. they do keep just saying the same wrong things about Cuba's history and Trotskyism, which suggests they haven't actually changed much.

			{{li\|I=S2/MX\|tradition=MX onto IV\|Q=618}}If Trotskyists wanted to promote Cuba transitioning from pre-Bolshevism to Bolshevism, they would not overthrow the central party because promoting a regime change at the same time the United States is trying to promote a regime change would be aligning themselves with the United States -> this is a bit of a leap that I doubt would describe the behavior of a lot of real-world Trotskyists. like, to get here you have to be smarter than Trotsky, who didn't successfully figure this one out. this is actually a bit of a prescriptive proposition.

			point against: implies that Deng Xiaoping Thought is not allowed. although the factual reasoning, that the national bourgeoisie will not yield to allow Bolshevism to begin, is technically correct. in China the herd of cats just kinda goes on and on and on, and nobody really likes that. the problem is blaming the CPC, when it's not really their fault because they just support whoever protects and unifies China against the outside; they would have been dissolved and replaced with the eight Liberal-republican parties already if they truly were on the same side. {{YouTube\|5TpPkOv1t5w}}<br/>
			neutral point: claims Fidel Castro and Che Guevara were on the side of the peasants. I {{em\|think}} that is historically accurate. {{YouTube\|5TpPkOv1t5w}}<br/>
			neutral point: claims that in 1962 Cuba was creating Bolshevism, implying that it is on the road to becoming an [[E:Trotskyism\|orange country]].
