Which was critiqued by Spanish Trotskyist Grandizo Munis in an over the top way worthy of the Weathermen, except that unlike them, he had gone through an actual civil war where counterposing revolutionary violence to fascist repression and advocating that was appropriate; not the reality in the US in 1941, however, so that talking about democratic rights and not revolutionary war was not the namby pamby milquetoast bullshit he suggested it was. Thus Cannon responded in kind with a similar tone of condescension and contempt as if Munis was just an isolated "ultraleft" crazy nut ball. Seems that neither one of them understood the other's context and talked past each other.
