Re: marxism-digest V1 #1818

'The Stalinists were hopelessly unwilling to think for themselves- witness
the flip flops in policy. And of course, their "opposition", the small
Trotskyist groups were all doing their best "a plague on all your houses".'

Anybody who describes the trotskyist position in 1930-33 as "a plague on all
of your houses" is either dishonest or grossly ignorant.
The defining policy of the left opposition was the demand for a united front
of workers organisations against the nazis. They also had a perspective of
reforming the comintern and saw themselves as a faction of it.
