in what sense is the socialist movement (i presume you mean the trots)
petty-bourgeois? liberal-oriented certainly and maybe even grand-bourgeois
(in politics not class background).

i'm no capital A anarchist but this sounds like the standard stalinoid abuse
of anarchists. how about some justification? there is certainly a communist
critique of anarchists to be made but just slagging them off as
petty-bourgeois doesn't cut it.
