Subject: M-I: Stooping to Levy's level


Lou Godena, this is just what this mailing-list does not need. Jerry Levy
is a destructive troll and you are stooping to his level. If you want to
grovel around in the mud like him, then let us find somebody to take your
place as moderator. If this is the sort of tone that you want to lend to
the marxism-international mailing-list, then other people who hate this
sort of flame war will just have to go ahead and start a new mailing-list.
There are many, many people who post here on almost a daily basis,
including even nasty me, who want to stay as far away from this as
possible. I trust that Michael Hoover, James Farmelant, Stephen Philion,
Carrol Cox, Gary McLennan, Doug Henwood, James Blaut, Rakesh Bhandari,
etc., etc. prefer to have intelligent discussions rather than this sort of
thing. If you can't bring yourself to being a proper moderator, then a new
mailing-list will have to be formed.
