At least he makes a change from the chorus of 'Death of Stalinism = Death of Socialism' sceptics. It's amazing the hysterical attacks on other subscribers that have been pouring from the keyboards of Doug and Louis P recently. 'Morons' is just the latest example. Why not keep a level head, register disagreement and present arguments, without descending to Maoist levels of vituperation? If you want to claim to represent sane discourse on the list, embody it in your postings. Cheers, Hugh --- from list marxism-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
