    Is Marcyist when you’re a Trot but you Trot yourself into supporting AES? I’ve mostly heard it in reference to Workers World Party and those guys seemed like very nice MLs with maybe a weird party history that I never fully understood.

      That’s my understanding as well, which is why PSL has many MLs, probably more than trots at this point. Just an interesting history, though with great comrades to my knowledge.

        From my experience, if a member is a trot in PSL and become problematic, they are kicked out or drop themselves out. However, we are working with people coming from early stages of radicalizing. You’ll notice the kind of people we work with from the questions they ask on some of The People’s Forum’s classes on YouTube. Many people are still developing, and I believe PSL does pretty well with educating them.
