Anthony:

Ah, another testimony to the anti-sectarian culture of this mailing list.
When Anthony first showed up, there was a violent clash with Nestor over
the role of Nahuel Moreno in Argentinian Marxism. (Anthony was a militant
in an American Morenoist group). After a while, Nestor grew to appreciate
Anthony's highly informed political analyses and now we see signs of mutual
respect. In the final analysis, if this mailing list is to serve any useful
purpose at all, it is to set an example for the broader Marxist movement
about the need for unity of the revolutionary forces on primary questions
(the need to defeat capitalism) while not splitting over secondary issues
(theory of the origins of capitalism, etc.).
