Please. My comment on unions, etc., was of course not directed at you. Not at all. Comment I did not understand your comments on the trade union to be directed at me personally. Nor do I have a problem with understanding my complicity as a citizen of the most imperial of all imperialist states. Such is life. I have lived a reasonably decent life owing to my imperial status and geographic location. I accept such without brooding. Without question the peoples of America have a debt to pay and it shall be paid in full. We have committed historical crimes. That is why we fight, so that we can be better than who we have been. My comments were directed at SA failure to make sense and endless crying over what he considers the fault of the Chinese Revolution and his perpetual demand that revolutionaries of a previous era were wrong because he has a grand theory on how the people of earth should behave. This endless brooding over the KMT and the CPC is pathetic. Yet, when it comes to our own history nothing is said other than finger pointing.
