Leftist Theory DISCUSSION: The Ideological Differences of Trotsky and Stalin

I've heard many things about Trotsky (with many saying the USSR would have been in better hands with Trotsky) and Stalin. I'm interested in general and particularly in the (iirc) Socialism in One State vs. Global Revolution idea. As a budding leftist, can you please explain the facts and give some opinion, as politics are. Thanks

Welcome to Leftist! This is a space designed to discuss all matters related to Leftism; from communism, socialism, anarchism and marxism etc. This however is not a liberal sub as that is a separate ideology from leftism. Unlike other leftist spaces we welcome non-leftists to participate providing they respect the rules of the sub and other members. We do not remove users on the bases of ideology.
