That article argues that Bregman “is not a leader of a revolutionary party whose aim is to seize power and expropriate the bourgeoisie; no, she is an honest, combative leader who defends just causes and who may be perceived as Trotskyist, but discursively and programmatically she is, at most, a left-wing Peronist.”
The Latin American Trotskyists (like most other leftists there) are ultra-nationalists, “sovreignists”, defined as ie “a political advocate who campaigns for a nation or region to maintain or regain full autonomy and self-determination. They generally seek to protect their country’s political, economic, and cultural independence from external governance, globalization, and supranational unions”. Which, in the context of Latin America, is ridiculous as the various states are obvious artificial entities descended from provinces of the old Spanish empire as adjusted by wars between them.
The Trotskyists there take up the same position on this point as the Maoists in this part of the world. Here Trotskyists are basically militant Guardian-readers defending “just causes” (rather than leftwing Faragists) but, even here, most Trotsky groups were ardent Brexiteers.
The Trotskyists in Latin America are just Guevara/Castroists /Maoists. Their nationalism is absurd. President Petro from Colombia said that Latin American nation-states are vanishing. The USA has created an economic and political structure that can not detached themselves from the USA capitalist class. Venezuela tried, and it failed, and the Bolivarian revolution has been completely wiped out in a few months. Most of the so-called “liberators” were criollos, except in Mexico and Haiti. Myriam is a Trotskyist Peronist. The Argentine Trotskyist supported the dictatorship of Fulgencio
Batista in Cuba

Workers do not know what they want. Millions of workers voted for a right-wing populist and against what they called communism, and now they are going to vote for a group of Trotskyists who call themselves communists. It’s like a clock pendulum, oscillating from one side to another side
