> Siddharth reduces fundamental arguments to matters of spelling, 
generalised insults to Trotskyists, wanking on about his grandmother 
and mud, and muddling up menshevik stage theory of which he is a hack 
advocate, and growing up.  Well grow up Siddarth, your efforts to 
reduce these questions to trivia are resisted by history itself. 

None of the Trotskyists on this list are in any conspiracy, or acting 
as inferiors or superiors. That is you stalinist mind caste slipping  
into neutral.  There have been several exchanges on these lists 
about the Stalinist betrayals of the Chinese CP in 1927. Go back and 
read those and come up with your defence of Chiang Kai-shek as an 
honourary member of the Comintern.

As for Jerry `inciting' Olaechea to come up with death threats, what 
a pathetic joke. Where have you been during the  heated exchanges on 
Peru, or for that matter Olaechea's death threats to others on these
lists?  While Olaechea and all his apologists try to minimise these 
threats, Trotskyists are aware that Stalinists/Maoists  have actually 
carried these threats out against Trotskyists in the past as part of their 
counter-revolutionary deals with the bourgeoisie to enforce spheres 
of influence to defend "socialism in one country". 

Finally,  the menshevik method which you, Godena, Olaechea and many 
others share or defend on these lists, has already brought about the 
single most counter-revolutionary overturn in history, the collapse 
of the degenerate workers states and the restoration of capitalism in 
the former SU and Eastern Europe, and is now being crowned by the 
restoration of capitalism in the East.  

While it is necessary to point out these realities to you, in an 
attempt to convince you that you are wrong, it is more than likely 
that you will remain dogmatically hidebound to your 
menshevik role in history, and end up where you belong in the 
dust-bin of history, after the victorious working class has trampled 
over you and your fellow bureaucratic bootlickers.
