I know I value your contributions (sparse though they are), but you have to let this issue drop. NOW. There is no "if" about it. This goes for DHKC as well. You can have your squabbles off-list if you want, but I'm tired of both of your postings being little more than an attempt to force the moderation team to pick sides. We won't. I hope we don't end up having to bounce the lot of you.

No more discussion on this issue! Stephen got his _last_ warning. Roma locuta, causa finita!

[L-I] Moderators note
I have just warned Stephen, that his recent postings in reply to the DHKC are totally inacceptable and beyond what the moderators want to see on Leninist-International.

Re: [L-I] MODERATORS NOTE : on list culture.
That's understood, but what are 'insults'? Are political characterizations as eg. 'liberal','centrist', 'Stalinist','Trotzkyists' insults or is it that while they are not in fact they can be used like this? Can anybody give a definition?

Moderator's note: on a queer query (was Re: [L-I] MODERATORS NOTE : on insults)

A.Holberg In Argentina, a very dirty speaking community to be fair, there are lots of ugly words. I am a Jew. One of the way to call us Jews is "ruso". which is not ilogical keeping in mind that Argentina sticks to the _ius solis_, thus citizenship and nationality are the same thing, and certainly were for the Migrations personnel who received the newcomers; same reason explains why people of Arab origin are known as "turcos" There are many ways to say "ruso". Some of them are friendly, others brutally insulting. In the same way, there are many inflexions, both contextual and of speech, for words such as "negro", "tano", "gringo", and so on. Even such a strong word as "puta" (whore) can be at the same time insultant or admirative. It all depends on the context and the intention. There is no rule, A. Wosni. Your question has a single answer: scrutinize your submissions and kill anything that you yourself feel would be insulting. And take the risk. Adjectives are, certainly, a dangerous ilk of words. It is best to replace them with long sentences, with explanations. We ALL know what we are talking about, particularly those I am thinking of while writing down these lines. Flame wars are smelt by the smoke that begins to flow in the air. Whoever does not help put things in order is, to put it simply, betraying the principles on which L-I is founded. And, to be honest, THIS particular moderator is beginning to be tired of smoky woods. El que avisa no es traidor.
