User:RD/9k/ the only good Trotskyism (Q28,94)

From Philosophical Research

Main entry

  1. the only good form of Trotskyism / the only good version of Trotskyism / non-revisionist Trotskyism (hypothetical possibility; motif) -> the motif of someone, usually me, claiming that there is a form of Trotskyism which would be acceptable to people who are Stalin-followers today but which currently practically nobody advocates for. I have always been confused why this is. it's not like Trotskyists are totally stupid and that's why they could never realize their theories are wrong. so is it that I am naming things that aren't Trotskyism Trotskyism and then asserting they're the only good Trotskyism? I am still unpacking this.

Principles[edit]

  1. the only correct thing Trotsky ever said / the one correct thing Rosa Luxemburg said -> a dumb joke I keep making in things which is funny because there is always more than one of these. but there's also the question of whether any of the "correct" things Trotsky said are correct in context, or if they all come with a subtext of being completely misapplied to the point that saying "the only correct thing Trotsky ever said" is funny again. that's just the thing, how long it takes to properly unpack a concept like this to the point there could be a whole page about it.
