Re: Marxism -- List? -- Newsgroup?

["Bryan A. Alexander" <bnalexan@xxxxxxxxx>]

A newsgroup would be handy, although I predict it will be raided daily by
reactionary and liberal idiots.
        However, there's more we can do on this list to create an
optional coherency.  We can try to thread our lines of argument more
closely.  For example, some of our discussions do this already: the
fascism seminar, the anthropology line, the incipient anarchist war -
each of these has clear subject lines and headers, enabling the
interested to focus in and the bored to delete away.
        Some discussions are too diffuse for this, but I think a
thread-like organization for our posts to this list would clarify the
majority of our discussion.
