Just to clarify, Michael is evidently replying to my post about 
anti-revisionism in the 60s to 80s and the expulson of Nicolaus from the 
October League https://groups.io/g/marxmail/message/39189.  Nicolaus went on to 
study law, develop a bad drinking habit, become a sort of  recovery guru. get 
involved in preserving wetland bird habitats etc. His introduction to the 
Grundrisse has been criticized by Moishe Postone, Paul Piccone (who had his own 
'trajectory'). One thing not mentioned by the critics (IIRC) is that besides 
extolling Stalin, he made little use of his earlier essay on the Grundrisse, 
"The Unknown Marx" that had been so influential with new left intellectuals, 
including Postone.
