Don't picture me with hair down to my shoulders, a beret or Che T-shirt and this will all be easier to stomach.

I'm reading a monograph by Leon Trotsky, "Their Morals and Ours: The Marxist View of Morality". Most people in the west only know Communism as perverted by Stalinism, or more accurately substitute Marxism for Communism in that statement. If you can stomach a read of the Communist Manifesto you'll find how far Stalin and successors strayed from Marxism. This short work by Trotsky is further clarifying on Marxist's behalf.

Language is a barrier, in more ways than one.
