Unfortunately, this is the way Leninists themselves work. If you
haven't seen it yet, just wait.

I will never refrain from polemics against Leninism or other
anti-liberation ideologies. On this list, I will do so more politely in
the future, however, so long as politeness is warranted.

BTW, I still don't understand how Leninists can reconcile their
ideology with CR or DCR in good faith. I just don't see how they do it.
