I had only been marginally following this whoole thread, bu this Joaquín
comment really jarred me:

Not of the good sort, this truly is a red-flag. I double checked, and
indeed Godena, in the midst of his postings, is *citing* Vdare as a
source, a known fascistic oufit the used their internet space to try and
rally various other white supremacists to join the Sierra Club a couple
of years back to call for zero immigration as a means to "save the
environment". They link to "Australian white only policy: rethink it"
articles, and are debating the veracity of the fascist hordes on the
borders called the "minutemen".

Because of his polite behaviour, Godena has been given a free ride, and
perhaps that wasn't such a tremendous oversight-- but was not good
comrade and brilliant economist Henry Liu, also at the time a friend of
many on this list, told he could not cite fascists and expect to be
considered a member of Marxmail at the same time?

Why should this "red-brown" crap be given a space, even if only
peripherally? Good for Godena to be a nice chap about it all, but we
know you now. You aren't merely making errors towards immigration, you
are actively seeking fascists for their arguments, statistical research,
et al.

Enough.

as far as Katz, he's merely seeking a soapbox for his imperialism.
