	I _DON'T_ need pompous lessons on 'infantile ultra-leftism' from
some arm-chair marxist...

ANTI-communism is a LITTLE more specific than JUST people who don't 
'believe' in communism...

	As usual (here and elsewhere), MUCH bandwidth is wasted dueling 
over what someone supposedly said or didn't say...
