modified use of "Communist" to Trotskyist as the former is misleading to the reader who might think that Shaw was a "leader" of the "world communist movement" which in most people's minds, at least during Shaw's life, consisted of a world phenomenon embodied by the socialist countries and movements allied with or inspired by them, meaning the Soviet Union, China, Cuba; Khruschev, Brezhnev, Mao, Ho, Fidel etc. Thus the use of it here represents sectarian pretension that's not NPOV but in fact appears to be a cut and paste job from a socialist newspaper.
