[Marxism] Banishment



I am appalled at the banishment of Walter Lippmann from Marxmail.
Certainly, I do not support his appraisal of Obama by any stretch of
the imagination. However, banishment from the list is not just
ridiculous, it's totally against all democratic norms. Marxmail is
not a political party. And, in fact, I have the same objections to
Green Party candidates as I do to Obama!

So, therefore, probably a majority of Marxmail subscribers should be
banished based on my criteria if I were to react as Louis has. But
the purpose of the list-serve is to be able to have a dialogue--even
with those you disagree with on some or even many issues.

I am sorry I did not speak out about this earlier. I have been
swamped with work. But I did and do rely on Walter's extensive Cuba
reporting.

Walter belongs back on the list and this "banishment" stuff must end
now.

Comradely,

Bonnie Weinstein, SocialistViewpoint.org
