Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Hmmmm.
Clive James? The man who expressed skepticism about climate change and supported the invasion of Iraq in 2003?

Then doubled-down with his quip that, "... British papers who have been opposing the Iraq-- what they call the Iraq War although the war only lasted a few days" in a later Bill Moyers interview? That guy?

Citing a climate change denying, neocon sympathizer somehow doesn't persuade me that Trotsky isn't to be admired.

Aside: Your suggesting I might wear one of those shirts is 27 years late. If the shirt had said, "I'd rather be a Soviet than ...", I might have bought one of those. ;0)

It's mourning in America again.
New Trotsky doesn't seem to have moderate commentators.
Love him or hate him. There doesn't seem to be a middle ground.

So, naturally, I found a critic.

;-)

Cheers,
Scott.
New I agree with Hitchens.
Later in Hitchens' life he conceded that he believed Trotsky (near his own end) realized that the whole experiment was based upon a false premise: that the working man could elevate himself into leadership and develop a fair and just system. My reading of Trotsky's last works doesn't completely bear that out explicitly, but reading between the lines one can certainly come to that view.

New Clearly then: Trotsky was dead-on, not just re his cohorts but
in Spades re the dis-US also-too (beginning earlier ~'68 assassination-fest).
Alas for all that immersed brilliance re vacuuming-out the Religio-noisemakers: that plot failed in USSR and ..for Murica/'18?
..scatter-bombing with Orange-boy's on-order friendly-nukes? (wouldn't work either).

The True Believer shall forever remain the most likely targeted-individual from The (coming...??) Barricades, I wot
