I remember one of these numpties being on Alex Jones. He tried to frame it as “communism is good, actually, but there are some bad flavors”. I don’t remember if he claimed that Trotskyites were the good or the bad kind. Basically, his pitch was that the ones you were taught to fear is the bad kind.
But all in all, he’s just another right wing grifter who’s trying to recruit those who are only vaguely into communism without knowing there’s more to it than just “we stick together”
