Which, translated, means:

"Someone with a different definition of communism and
different interpretations of some key events in
communist history has appeared on this list looking
for a debate."

Floyce continued:

>Ban the trolls.  Erase their posts and replies.

Which, translated, means:

"I don't want to have to argue with people who don't
share my understanding of communism and my
interpretation of certain key events in communist
history, even though these people constitute the vast
majority of those who identify with communism. I want
these people's views to be airbrushed out of this e
list in the same way as the faces of those who had
fallen from grace were brushed out of official
portraits in Stalinist states. This excercise in
ideological is to be conducted in the name of
anti-authoritarianism, of course."

Sad stuff.
