"This is why, to this day, Trotsky is widely slandered in Russia by both pro-Stalinist and anti-Communist historians .. "
In the United States there should be numerous professional scholars applauding and recommending David North 's TELL THE TRUTH mission for this great revolutionary figure , Leon Trotsky.
But alas, the American ruling class has cultivated in Academia and in bourgeois journalism the most subservient " intellectual class " in human history.
I recall reading Trotsky's cogent writing " In Defense of Marxism " years ago. It was true back then that a petty-bourgeois faction can appear in any SOCIALIST party. There is no equivalent of a Chinese Wall for any political ideology .
In the final analysis, what accusation sticks on Leon Trotsky ? That he was a honest revolutionary ? How damning in the eyes of all philistine scholars
