Re: [Marxism] A clarification of my view of Kosova independence andKosova "independence"



"I was signifying the Albanian ruling elites.."

The 98% of the Albanians that voted for independence in 1991?

A rather inventive and ingenious definition of "ruling elites".

This is a standard juggle of rhetoric by Mr. Karadjis, as though I was
equating the desire of national independence with chauvinism. I think
everyone here who has more humble imagination than his would have realized
that I was signifying the Albanian ruling elites, the remnants of KLA, by
"chauvinism of reactionary forces". Then he pushes me to confess the
equivalency of theory and practice by equalizing the ideology and its form
that has gripped the masses: "are the whole nation chauvinists for wanting
it?"

"Does it also apply to East Timor, Eritrea, Bangladesh and other small
countries that have fought for independence?"
....
Yes, I oppose the independence of Bangladesh just as I oppose the
existence of the Moon.
