The vast majority of people on it are unable to conduct discussion. I find it interesting that I bother you so much. I fond this latest little foray by our "theoreticians" on the list a mild amusement. Personally it does not matter much to me whether I am on or not on this list since it of so little value. However I do find some of the comments cocnerning me by other on this list as reminiscent of stalinism and fascism rather than socialism. And yet these same people will attack leninism for precisely this kind of approach. What a farce. And these people want to be taken seriously.
