Gulags, purges, mass murder--all just hysterical fantasies concocted by imperialism and swallowed wholesale by the non-stalinist left. I don't want to know what you think of the Hungarian workers. Or the East Germans who were sniped going over the wall (oops! This is probably a fabrication). Apart from the fact that the system you endorse was inherently faulty (and morally repugnant), people like you are partially responsible for the fact that even the poorest workers run screaming from socialism. I could suggest that you read Castoriadis, but since even Trotsky (crusher of Kronstadt) is probably a fascist ally in your opinion, I suggest you read Orwell's 1984. It was written for people like you. Don --- from list marxism-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- ------------------
