Anarchisten over Trotski:
-He threatens the murder of the peaceful populace of Kronstadt. He gives the order "don't spare the bullets."
-This is he, bloodthirsty Trotsky, Marshal of the Communist oprichnina, extinguisher of the spirit of freedom, spiller of rivers of blood for the autocracy of the R.C.P., who dares speak so to those who are strongly and boldly holding aloft the red banner of Kronstadt.
-The Communists (i.e. Trotski) have well mastered the old Jesuit tactic, "slander and slander, and with luck something will stick."
In powerless spite, pathetic and confused, they spread the most outlandish rumors about events in Kronstadt among the workers and soldiers of Petrograd. At work here, as radio messenger Rosta would have you believe, are the Entente, and French spies, and White Guards, and tsarist generals, and Mensheviks, and SR's, and the Estonian bourgeoisie, and Finnish bankers, and the Entente's counterintelligence. In a word, the entire world has taken up arms against the poor Communists. Moreover, they assure the Petrograd workers that "French agents and former tsarist officers sneaked into Kronstadt, and, using gold, corrupted elements lacking class consciousness."
Well imagine that! And we, the Kronstadters, didn't know a thing about it!
Zo moeilijk is het dus niet: Trotski voelde de 'opstand' aankomen en verspreidde op voorhand de meest groteske leugens in de hoop dat de publieke opinie er op de duur wel 'iets' van zou geloven. Je 'argu-mentatie' is al meer dan 80 jaar dezelfde, Coolov! (Eens te meer een bewijs dat het trotskisme intellectueel dood is.) 8)
