The icepick to the head treatment he got was transmitted to his followers via telepathic link.
true shit
Since he didn't actually rule and so has """""clean hands""""" (yes yes I know), the Trots like to live in an alternate reality where he *did* rule Russia and it was a true communist Utopia. Middle Class students can call themselves "Trotskyists" without any fierce repercussions (imagine calling yourself a Stalinist -- lol). He is a proxy for "not real communism". "If only Trotsky had ruled", they say, "communism would've worked". People that think like this are deluded and live in a fantasy world, so "Trotskyism" is a proxy for "delusion".
They are also the most rustled of all the communists.
A stalinist, Trotskyite and an anarchist comes home and find their partner with another person.
The Stalinist shoots them both,
The Trotskyite tries to give them a newspaper
And the Anarchist jumps in bed with them both!
