In fact, the _only_ unmoderated Spoons marxism list is m-gen. (2) The moderators haven't always made the best decisions, IMHO, but they should be praised for their tireless, unpaid, and thankless efforts. (3) On m-th, Chris B and Jukka are both doing a very good job. If there has been a shortage of postings, that is not their fault. It is the fault of the entire list. (4) On m-int, Zeynep deserves a lot of credit for taking principled stands and for refusing to be bullied by the cyber-clique who viewed that list as their own private playground. She has, IMHO, enforced the list rules fairly (even though I don't support _all_ of her decisions). (5) The _only_ reason this issue is coming-up now is that a small centrist clique on m-int has become political isolated and desperate and is attempting to destroy what they can not control. (6) Things have been getting _better_ on the Spoons lists -- with a few exceptions. Let's let the moderators moderate and let the losers admit that they have lost.
