I didn't care for the nonsite articles. Adolph Reed gets more strident in his class-only analysis as he gets older and more irrelevant. He specializes along with his acolytes in branding those who disagree as ultraleftists. He actually redbaited those of us who said the the labor bureaucracy sold out the workers, including U of Wisconsin grad students who spearheaded the labor revolt in Wisconsin a few years ago. You seldom find an article attacking the "ultra leftists" (basically anyone not all in for Sanders and anyone who grasps that racism has a life at least partially independent of class) who does not kiss Reed's ass. The article at nonsite by Peter Dorman attacking Naomi Klein is truly dreadful, a shitty piece of that misses the forest for the trees. When Reed or Dorman or any or the other anti-"ultra leftists" writes something on a par with Klein or many others like her or for that matter any number of "ultra leftists," I'll pay homage. Bur for now, no thanks to their superfi cial and hectoring "think" pieces. _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
