Date: Tue, 12 Nov 1996 13:36:05 -0800 (PST) From: Scott McLemee <mclemee-AT-igc.apc.org> Subject: M-I: Posadist League As Lou P. indicates, I am indeed the author of the Posadist League denunciation of the film "Independence Day" -- a vile attack on our space comrades. For as J. Posadas showed some years ago, the appearance of flying saucers proves that socialism has been achieved on other planets, since capitalism could never build up the productive forces necessary for interstellar travel. Those interested in Posadas's work will be glad to know that his British comrades (there may have been up to ten of them) translated the old man's work into English. There are copies of several of the prolific theorist's works in the Library of Congress. I am not, in other words, making this up. What Lou forgot to mention was that the League's manifesto angered one serious P-ist. On the other hand, I had at least two requests to join the League. And I am not making that up, either. --- from list marxism-international-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
