Bedggood, my understanding of the events of Germany in 1921-23 are based
on history written by highly regarded Marxist scholars, including Angress.
I have read everything Trotsky ever read on the German events. Quoting
from them doesn't tell me anything I don't already know. Do you ever read
anything except Trotsky? Of course you don't. Trotsky was god and you are
his prophet. What a waste of time to discuss anything with you.

Goodbye, Mr. Bolshevik

Louis Proyect

ps. When you make your revolution in New Zealand, could you get me a deal
on some Grade-A lambchops?
