RE: [Marxism] A Joint for Jose to Spark the Imagination



>>Jose's ignorance, lack of interest in, and lack of comprehension of
Mexican
politics is comical. In his typical blustery style of flame throwing,

Jose says I must be smoking heavy hashhish to think that Mexico's
elites,
like Carlos Slim and cohorts, might be trying to move Mexico into posing

itself (internally and externally) as a US style 'democracy', where two
parties called Flim and Flam can compete for votes!<<

Tony Abdo attempted to analyze the PRI/PAN by doing all sorts of
analogies to U.S. politics.

I tried to point out the CENTRAL FACT about US and Mexican politics that
is important in an international context, namely, that the U.S. is an
imperialist country, and México and oppressed and exploited country, a
victim of imperialism.

Tony thinks this says something about what I do or don't know about
"Mexican politics." He didn't and doesn't get it.

So much for that.

José
