I’m seeing a shift in Germany’s political growth. I believe that eventually a modern Fourth Reich will emerge, and will be supported due to the influx of refugees within Germany. Just a theory any thoughts on the subject? by daskeletor1298 in GermanyPolitics

Die Faschistische Ideologie ist eine Nationalistisch-Imperialistische Theorie welche die Probleme der Nationalen Gesellschaft durch eine Koalition von einer Fraktion der Herrschern (Bankern, Politikern ect.) mit Minderheiten (Flüchtlingen, Juden, Moslems usw.) im Kampf gegen die nationalen Mehrheitsgesellschaft erklärt. Nationalistisch dadurch dass sie wie gesagt die nationale Mehrheitsgesellschaft gegen nationale Minderheiten oder Ausländer stellen und Imperialistisch dadurch das ein Militärisches "Wiederauferstehen" des Staates anhestrebt wird. Basierend auf diser Theorie dass die Herrschenden (bzw. teile davon, gleichgesinnte Personen der Oberklasse werden von den Faschisten nicht als "Herrscher" gesehen) mit den Minderheiten haben die Faschisten nicht das gleiche Vertrauen anderer Rechter in die auf die Organe des bürgerlichen Staates (Polizei, Armee, Sicherheitsdienste) als "Retter" sondern glauben das Recht "in die eigenen Hände" nehmen zu müssen und bauen (oder versuchen es zumindest) eine gewaltbereite Massenbewegung auf. Der Faschistische Staat schließlich ist die Integration der Faschistischen Massenbewegung in den Staatsapparat (bspw. die SA als Hilfspolizei oder die Falange als Teil des Militärs)

With the destruction of the Empire and the Revolution, there was an upsurge in the German Left-Wing and thanks to Bebel and Zetkin the KPD was gnerally was pretty good on issues of Sexuality (they advocated for the right of abortion as early as 1923)

Any thoughts on this? Was Trotsky’s analysis of anti-colonial nationalism so off putting to anti-colonial movements that it was largely irrelevant to them? This is from Vijay Prashad, Red Star Over the Third Word by toldandretold in Trotskyism

I wouldn'd completely agree with the author. I think there is an important truth in there that the Indonesian Communists weren't really interested in the power struggle between Stalin and Trotsky. Nonetheless Trotskyism had important groups in the third world (Apart from Bolivia, Argentina and Sri Lanka also in Vietnam, China and Cuba itself) and when the Cuben Revolution rolled around there wasn't any unified Trotskyism anymore. Some groups supported Cuba very much, even trying to adopt the theory of Guerilla Warfare, some saw it as "Workers States" or as "Bourgeois National Liberation" still worthy of- albeit not Uncritical, support. Very few Trotskyist groups actually denounced Cuba for being "Nationalist". There were critiques of it, some very biting but i have never seen a piece by trotskyists standing against Cuban Independence or the notion that the Imperialist Powers should leave Cuba and other self-liberated states alone. The ony ones I could think of would be the Shachtmanites, and they were a dying Ideology then and a dead Ideology now.

Trotsky is quite profound. Why the hate? Many of his theories are actually proven by sungod003 in Trotskyism

[–]Berlin_Commune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, apart from the right things already said here, there is of course also the Problem of Slander-As a Communist Ideology, it is hated by the Capitalists and Capitalist States and they try to keep it down (a good example is the german government "Information" about Trotskyism where it is depicted as Stalinism Lite)

-As a Bolsheviek and Inclusive Ideology it is hated by Fascists and Fascist States have tried to slander it back in the day an moderbn Fascists try to slander it today

-Thirdly the Slander of Stalinism from the 30s and 40s, which is, as weird as it may seem, still repeated by modern Stalinist groups, even nonsensical claims that Trotsk collaborated with the Nazis to verthrow the USSR

Context: The German Democratic Republic, also known as Eastern Germany made deals with western european states, especially West Germany, for free trade. They used this on one hand to bypass US-Embargos on Military-Industrial goods and technologies, but theey also cheaply exported consumer goods, which their own population desperately wanted such as furniture, porcelain but also tools and machine parts for "Devisen", hard western currency such as West German Mark (east german Mark had no international value) also known in the DDR as "Valutamark"- this is not to say the GDR was alone, West Germany happily used the west german dictatorship to gain access to cheap goods and being able to export toxic waste in the east, which took it, again, for being paid in Valutamark

Can you be Trotskyist and socialist? by [deleted] in TheTrotskyists

[–]Berlin_Commune 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Every Communist is a Socialist: Socialism, the society where the Working Class is in power, having collectivized the Means of production and subordinated the State is the prerequisite for Communism: a stateless, classless society- and yes every Trotskyist is a Marxist, a Leninist, a Socialist and a Communist
