Description

Doug's new book is out where he discusses the conspiracy surrounding the Left Opposition and the Moscow show trials. Many writers have defended these trials like Dominic Losurdo, who argued they were necessary to build socialism, and Grover Furr, who advocates there was a conspiracy and has written multiple books citing the evidence for such a conspiracy. But does the evidence hold up to scrutiny? Doug weighs in to counter these accusation and defend the legacy of Trotsky.
