Re: A Question to Members of ...



Is the connection of MS and Stalinism Called for? Perhaps. Social
Democrats and Radical Democrats (and Market Socialists) are terrified of
"Communist totalitarianism," which they often seem to view as the worst
possible outcome of any struggle. I can very well see Justin and friends,
suspecting the worst from the likes of Doug and Lou and me and Jeffrey, de-
ciding that they had best throw in with (say) the Christian Democrats like
Duarte. And low and behold (though I'm sure Justin would be sad at the
necessity) the knock my door at 4am comes.
