Radek and Limonov [was: Re: [Marxism] Radek and National-Bolshevism

["Zivko Vukolaj" <zivko_vukolaj@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Assertion in question:

"We could debate if Radek would agree with Liminov today, but this would be
like debating if Engels would agree with today's SPD."

Quoting David:

"We should be clear that todays Russian National Bolshevik trend themselves
see
the same "National Bolshevism" that Carlos is talking about from 1918 as
*their* form of "National Bolshevism", just 'matured' with the advent
of "National Socialism" and "Fascism" thrown in. So, it's sort of a 'pick
and
choose' menu and it is very easy to polemicize either way by comparing, or
not,
todays Russian nazis (defined by me here as Russian
nationalists/anti-Semites
organized in the National Bolshevik Party with the ones Carlos stresses
*were*
the original "national Bolsheviks"."


Zivko Vukolaj:

The very fact that the 'National-Bolshevism' [NOTE: I'm using the term as it
is understood in the modern sense.] is so extremely ecelectic, drawing its
influences from dirt and water, heven and hell, life and death, and God
knows where else, pretty much does away with any claims of existing
continuums between ancestry and descendants. If one can immagine Karl Radek,
Ernst Niekisch, Otto Strasser, and Julius Evola in one room without each
tearing other's head appart, one also pretty much needs to see a doctor.

Yours,
Zivko V.
