It's sad in the same way that the Russian revolution went the way it did. Initially, the Trotskyists were the moving force, but the activities of the West gave the Leninists the excuse they needed to impose something much different and obviously much less democratic than was intended. ie., not at all. Lenin was *not* a Marxist, Trotsky was, same in Cuba. -- + Joe Hill + Registered Linux user #282046 + Homepage: http://nodex.sytes.net + ICQ# 279518458 + Do what thou wilt, this shall be the + whole of the law.
