Louis: This is not helpful. Jerry is not authorized to tell people to get 
lost. He should take Carroll Cox's helpful advice and make judicious use 
of the delete key. This type of emotional outburst only degrades the 
level of discussion on the list. I would have expected comrade Levy to 
contribute some thoughts on the whole question of fascism and crisis that 
has been on-going, subjects I assume he would find interesting. The only 
way to steer discussion on the list in a more fruitful direction is to add 
something interesting.

He has been free with this kind of advice to me in the past and I hope he 
would have the good sense to take make use of it himself.

While the PCP supporters have been saying things that I totally disagree 
with, we have to recognize that Maoism is a current that still enjoys 
some support in the international left. If they decide to remove 
themselves from the list, we can be sure that at some point other Maoists 
will appear. That is politics.
