Re: [Marxism] Cockburn contrarianism

[dave.walters@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Well, I for one appreciate his contrarianism. I don't 
agree with him on climate change but I think he's 
dead on in regards to climate change advocates 
essentially opposing all real research that might 
hint at a...contrary point of view. Cockburn is correct: 
there is a witch-hunt and it doesn't do climate change 
activists a bit of good to act as religious fanatics.

I would argue, however, that Cockburn's own point 
of view varies hugely with the Spiked-Online ex-ultralefts 
on nuclear energy. He continues to exclude *any* 
discussion on nuclear energy from Counterpunch and 
lets anti-nuclear dilettantes like Harvey "We're all gonna die!" 
Wasserman speak for him.
