I met some who were very nice, seemed very rational, didn't even come off as "culty" as their particular Trot party is "known" to be. I mean, yeah, ideologically they're not quite right, but like, more people working against capitalism, who at least understand and agree with what Lenin said, is a good thing, right? Sectarianism is silly and left unity between Marxist tendencies is important to get to the point of revolution and then sorting out our differences, right?

When I’ve asked them “what’s your plan to establish dual power” their response was “oh the workers will figure that out”.

My brother in Christ, I thought that you said the greatest crisis of our time was a lack of leadership among the proletariat?

It's such an unserious answer. Do you not consider yourselves to be workers? How can you then be part of a proletarian revolution?
