Labour politicians generally have an initial period of hanging around with the hard left before they smell the coffee and start their career proper by becoming good little administrators like anyone else. Tories will similarly be found in the company of libertarian half wits in their early years, calling for the legalisation of heroin or the abolition of the NHS.
As for Blair as a Trotskyist sleeper, that portrayal of the man who killed Clause 4 gave me the best laugh I’ve had in a long time.
Yes, it does seem a paradox until you look at the history of Postmarxism and what should be called Posttrotskyism. The far left has moved towards a totalitarian market socialism (ie: National Socialism). National Socialism was always the destination of Marxism - see https://therenwhere.substack.com/p/will-you-become-a-nazi which explains what happens.
The key to being a NAZI is the desire for authoritarian/totalitarian government. Market socialism alone does not a NAZI make :)
Also you seem keen on free speech. You and I would be first against wall if the National Socialists get power. Or maybe we would just get a live-in spook like they do in China.
