Mr. Chicar. You have asked this question some time ago by starting a similar thread, if I remember correctly. And it was an Off Topic thread.
On an intellectual level I will answer the same. Trotsky was not so different as people believe him to be. He may have been "martyred" in Mexico, but during the Bolshevik Revolution he masterminded "social cleansing" by organizing the murder of thousands of men, women and children of upper and merchant class society, just to "drive the message" that the proletariat was not "taking it any more" and as a political terror tactic. People who followed him and later became his own mortal enemies, like Stalin, just perfected and augmented the tactics (purges) 100-fold before removing Trotsky as a challenge to the political order.
I will write no more on the subject.
Gentlemen, though this is an hypothetical and somewhat historical discussion to this point, it is perilously close to outright political if extended in any direction.
Perhaps we should drop this one?
Cheers!
Chas.
Not only that, but this subject is a re-hash of a now defunct Off-Topic thread
