Re: [Fwd: No Subject, was, purportedly, on North Korea]




noone doubts that the imperialist media lie a lot, but to simply reject an
argument on this basis alone seems to me to be a bit bizarre after the
Stalinists (at that time I was one too) had lied so much about so many things
,among others about the Moscow trials, about Pol Pot etc. etc. At that time and
obviously until today there were always lots of "communists" in the west who
denied the situation in these countries simply by saying: "Look, the
imperialists say so". The problem of truth cannot be approached this way.
