What kind of revolutionary left do you want? Regardless, wanting to hard-reboot an existing radical movement over its perceived "failure" - while it's still gaining traction - is what Trotsky did, and it just threw a wrench into things.
And not to be that guy, but the negativity isn't doing you favors. I made an effort to be reasonable and objective (except the Modern Trotskyites bit, since they honestly feel too sus and self-destructive to take seriously). If you're feeling threatened by that, idk what to tell you. This is just what we believe. No one pays us for it.
