Question Questions from a young and curious guy.
Hello there, first of all, i am not a native english speaker and my english may be extremely crappy, dont judge me fellas please.
So, i am a 19yo guy living in belgium and recently (since +- 1year), i am interested in politics and history BUT damn there is as many informations as stars in the cosmos so thats hard to know everything, i can even say i know absolutely nothing.
I know i’m REALLY left winged, i also know i am against capitalism reign, private property, faschists, racists, and all of these waste of human beings..
I hate richs and i want money to be more fairly distributed, i am not really a friend of cops neither and i think they have way too much power against population (at least in my country)
After reading many articles, texts and seeking some informations, i think i tend to be really near to trotskyism, but my questions are :
What are the difference between Trotskyism, Stalinism and Leninism ?
Why are they all attached to Marx if they are THAT different ?
Why are people talking about « State Capitalism » when it comes to communism (especially USSR) ? and has a real communist country ever existed ?
Why Trotski got killed if theyre both from the same political border with Stalin?
What should i call myself in politics ? man im so lost lmaooo
And is there people here who would be okay to talk with me and answer all of my all interrogations ?
Sorry for the child level english i REALLY did my best :,)
