I talked to them and they were pretty nice. Tried to sell me a newspaper though! But I expected them to do that.
You should probably delete this and blur their faces if you repost.
The flag says "Revolutionary Communist International". The pin and t-shirt says RCI/RCP. This is a well known Trotskyist party. They own the url "marxist (dot) com".
They're outside in a public space. They're not trying to hide their faces; they're selling newspapers. Trotskyists are most often criticized for supporting western imperialism. I doubt that they're in any sort of danger.
First off everyone who is anticapitalist in public is in danger. As for censoring , It's a courtesy we should just adhere to on this site considering we do/did the same for protesters and photos of them, even though protests happen in public and by people who didn't always mask.
I just figure that the same rule of thumb should be extended, especially considering that now OP has also somewhat self doxxed by posting this photo as well. But this website is weird about trots sometimes so
Edit: I'll also note that the things you bring up ,namely that the org name is visible, is very different than the personally identifiable image of a face, and mixing the two together is silly.

This sentence doesn't contradict my comment at all.
Were the Trotskyists doing "anticapitalism in public" when they supported the Hong Kong separatist movement in 2019-2020? The Hong Kong separatist movement which was sponsored by the National Endowment for Democracy.
Beyond that, RCI has a Taiwan branch with active chapters in at least 6 cities. They oppose Chinese re-unification. They oppose Mao. They oppose Xi Jinping. They oppose the CPC. Open the article below that RCI published and translate it. RCI says that "Taiwan is already a fully independent country".
This is just one example. RCI holds many ideas that most hexbear users would not agree.
Blur can be reversed, a black box is better
I wish they would stop calling for a general strike (TL: one day work stoppage) for like 5 seconds and start doing the organising work required to actually call and carry out a mass, discipline, organised labour action lasting months!!
But still, good they come out to stuff. Just wish they didnt derail organising meetings rehashing the general strike thing every 5 seconds
We need a Trot mod of the game Paperboy
Instead of the Grim Reaper, you get chased by COINTELPRO
Trotskeee where are youuu
I need something to read, anyone got a... newspaper?
I think I see a straw hat (or a few) 
not quite vanguard vibes, but seems fairly wholesome at least 
Also, saw one at the protest i was at:
If its the protest i think it is, yeah very hopeful vibes
✊!
Always off by themselves
What's a trot?
newspaper salespeople
A miserable little pile of secrets!
"Even though at one time Trotskyism represented an erroneous position, but a position in the field of political ideas, Trotskyism became during the following years a vulgar instrument of imperialism and reaction. This is the way these gentlemen think. For example, in relation to South Vietnam, where a broad revolutionary front has united the overwhelming majority of the people and various sectors of the population, has united them closely around the liberation movement in the struggle against imperialism. For the Trotskyists that is absurd; that is counterrevolutionary. Yet these gentlemen who serve imperialism have the gall to do such an unusual thing in the face of the facts and realities of history and against the revolutionary movement and to express themselves in this manner. "
-Fidel Castro, 1966
Trotskyists support Lenin but opposed the USSR. They also deny the existence of AES states. They oppose China, Vietnam, etc. They also oppose labor unions. They're known for selling newspapers.
