====================================================================== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. ======================================================================
Thanks, one other thing before I have to split: as to "Bakuninism", Joe Hill, Sacco & Vanzetti and Emma Goldman and numerous others considered themselves part of this tradition. We can disagree with that, but to suggest they were common gangsters into foisting their tyranny on the workers is not only wrong and unfair, it plays into exactly those ruling class stereotypes that were used to victimize and frame-up these worthy activists. James P. Cannon, who later became a principal founder of the SWP, was actually inspired to name their newspaper "The Militant" based on a quote from Vanzetti, who responded to Cannon's rhetorical query, while on death row, about a worker who fell from a high storey window while in police custody to his death, whether the cops' story that he jumped was true. Oh no, responded Vanzetti, "he was a good militant, he would never have done that."
