Well, didn't Trotsky die in like 1941-2?  We didn't quite know about the holocaust then.  I guess he's talking about the rage felt by the underclass, which you could probably draw some parallels to Hitler's stylee with.

Yeah, Mercator.  In Mehico. I always kinda dug Trotsky when I was a young commie.  Haven't read anything by him in years.
