Boah, that WSWS piece is just Trotskyite score-settling with the Johnson-Forest Tendency. This shit reads like it was thrown together by a computer program. Somebody whom you disagree with is "reactionary"? Check. Attacking another leftist as a "liberal"? Check. Upholding the pure, immaculate revolutionary continuity from Trotsky? Check. (Grace Boggs says she was never really a Trotskyist? *gasp*! *horror*!) And, of course, she's "covering" for the Democratic Party. Check. I've never known Grace or James Boggs. But the first course in Marx's _Capital_ I ever took was with Martin Glaberman, and it was 1,000 times more valuable than this tired, sleep-inducing denunciation ritual. I'd like to think if Trotsky were alive today, he'd be thinking about how to relate to the field of possibility opened up by Wisconsin, Occupy, Greece, and the Arab Spring, rather than engaging in these religious denunciation rituals. ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@greenhouse.economics.utah.edu Set your options at: http://greenhouse.economics.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
