I don’t mean to be sectarian. I know a fuck ton of Trot individuals and orgs and their position on Gaza is very good. But SWP is so bad it’s almost comical.
I discovered this as I was trying to find out why We Are Many dissolved 5 years ago. Did SWP go right??
Exactly what you said about it being an existing division. I tried framing it that way too, that I am not the one making these divisions, these divisions already exist and we have to include it in our analysis. But no, they acted like me speaking the word itself is what is dividing the working class.
And they were alo very anti nationalism. Because, guess why, it “divides the workers”. I put more energy than I should have pulling quotes and arguments from Fanon, and even the big man of steel himself Stalin (as this group claimed to be Stalinist), as to why national liberation should be supported.
But every time just just sent me a doc their party wrote in the 60s about why I was wrong and why the BPP should be opposed.
I don’t have to deal with them anymore thank god
