Nate 
speaking as a former member of Gerry Healy's SLL [that DOES date me] you
are not missing anything. There is NO contribution that Trotsky or modern
Trostkyism has made to a working class movement that is worth considering
and the best thing anyone in a Trot organisation can do is quit it before
their mind rots.
All the contributors you referred to Castoradis, James etc did their work
when OUTSIDE of [and probably against] the Trostkyist movement.

nuff said?
