At best Boddi this stuff is some sort of civil libertarian garbage and has 
nothing to do with Marx or Lenin. And if the state caps are one form of 
petty bougeois opposition who,s line is a plague on both your houses which 
leans towards the workers movement for support. Your line Boddi is in fact 
the line of the Libertarian who leans towards a ridiculous utopian idea that 
classes do not exist at all! And thus wind up defending at best some sort of 
individualism of the poor little guy/girl who is imperiled by the existence 
of class struggle..

Although you do sign most of your stuff with "Peace" which ultimately says 
if it wasn,t for those horrible Communists and Capitalists fighting about 
who will be the dictators everything would be just fine...In fact a denial 
of both the theory of Marx and Lenin....You obviously think that you do 
represent some sort of "Marxism".

Well, you are not alone. Even the Mensheviks and the neo-Stalinists, not to 
mention the Bolshevik-Leninists like the authodox Trotskyists, also have 
something to say on the subject.

Then again there are lots of people who claim to be god also!

But I must agree here with Mark. You certainly do not fit into the classical 
trends which evolved out of Marx like the Mensheviks, the Stalinists and the 
Trotskyists. You appear more to be and evolvement out of bougeois 
counter-revolution of the Cadet model!
