Joti Brar and Alexander McKay present a new party pamphlet about Trotskyism. Buy the book: https://shop.thecommunists.org/produc... Today’s Trotskyites claim to be the ‘true inheritors’ of VI Lenin, faithful upholders of revolutionary Leninist ideology and of the Bolshevik organising tradition which brought us the world’s first socialist state in 1917. But in reality their organisations and leaders play the role of agent provocateur in the working-class movement, just as Trotsky did throughout his lifetime. By consistently denigrating and opposing the forces that actually fight imperialism, whether at home or abroad, Trotskyism works to mislead potential revolutionaries and prevent them from making any meaningful contribution to the struggle for socialism. Despite their constant calls for strikes and uprisings ‘now’, no Trotskyist group has ever led a successful movement against capitalism in over a century of revolutionary posturing. More than that: Trotskyism has actively impeded all such struggles. By re-packaging imperialist lies in ‘Leninist’ phrases, Trotskyists promote ‘analyses’ and slogans that mislead and confuse rather than educating, and they engage in activities that are designed to prevent any advance of the working class. In Britain today, their practical programme amounts to support for the imperialist Labour party, support for imperialist wars, and implacable hostility toward genuine revolutionaries. A plethora of Trotskyist organisations are funded by the British state and promoted by British corporate media: one of many strategies used by the capitalist class to sabotage the efforts of the workers to rise to the position of ruling class and build a bright socialist future. ______________________________________________ Subscribe!

The bourgeoisie turns everything into a commodity, hence also the writing of history. It is part of its being, of its condition of existence, to falsify all goods; it falsified the writing of history. And the best-paid historiography is that which is best falsified for the purposes of the bourgeoisie Friedrich Engels. "Show everybody, then, that no power will succeed in depriving the workers of class consciousness! Without knowledge the workers are defenceless, with knowledge they are a force!" V I Lenin (What are our ministers thinking about?)
What is communism? What is the record of the communist movement in power? Is communism relevant to workers and their struggles today? Who was Stalin ('man of steel')? What are the differences between Lenin ('man of iron') and Trotsky? Which has proven itself in practice and can aid the liberation of working people from their economic and political oppression? This selection of interviews and presentations seeks to answer these fundamental and important questions.
