Hey, Godena, let's try to raise the intellectual level of this debate. 
Yeah, you're right, Renique is on the payroll of the Ford Foundation and 
has been reputed to have ties to the Freemasons and the Illuminati. I grant 
you all that.

But it's time to speak of cabbages and kings. Shining Path is Maoist. You 
support Shining Path. Is Maoism the way forward? Should we emulate the 
example of the Chinese Communist Party when it dissolved itself into the 
Kuomintang? Is this the type of revolutionary practice you think we 
should imitate? What about the bloc of 4 classes? Do you get all 
googly-eyed when you think of a coalition government in Peru made up of 
Shining Path and Peruvian capitalists? What sector? The mine-owners? The 
bankers? The plantation-owners?

These are simply naughty ideas and I expect better of you, Comrade Godena.
