Sparts as Leninists

[Louis N Proyect <lnp3@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Somebody sent me this rather interesting note on the kooky notion of
"democratic centralism" we find today in groups like the Spartacist
League.

Since the Sparts seem to be your ideal type of the parody bolshie party, I
thought you might be interested in this. The Sparts supported the Quebec
independence referendum, which took some observers by surprise, given their
usual opposition to bourgeois nationalism. Apparently a WV was all ready to
go press with an article denouncing the movement when word came down from
Jim R. that Yes was the Correct Vote. The original article was scrapped,
the article was rewritten, and now every Spart agrees with the party line
in public.
