Well, I suppose I could be "a snivelling little playground sneak who goes
out of his or her way to keep in with the school bully," but perhaps there
is a general agreement shared among a number of us that socialists need to
stop dogmatically writing off persons and formations that are not explicitly
socialist.
As I see it, anticipating a future dependent on inbred, self-referencing,
self-congratulatory circles of aging dogmatists strikes me as essentially
flawed. If my comments are harsh, they are not aimed at individuals but
flawed ideas that need to be understood if they are too be avoided.
And this point need to be addressed head on politically....
If you want, instead, to change the subject by feigning moral outrage and
hurling personal abuse, that's your option....
At least you're not quoting Lenin.....
Solidarity!
Mark L.
