Re: [MLL] List Protocol: take note of the political climate

The attempted assassination of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in a Tucson shooting 
 rampage that left six people dead and scores wounded should be a wake up 
call  about the political volatility of the country. 
 
OK?
 
Invective: abusive or violent language used to attack, blame, or denounce  
somebody.  
 
Time to take serious note of the invectives and periodic calls for violence 
 by a former contributor of this list. Time to close the door on this 
behavior  and advocacy. I re-read some of the material from the past several 
months and  much of it contains words and sentences like I hate, demands that 
one accept  political terrorism and suggestions that a contributor to this 
like might be a  fascist. 
 
A silent list is better than advocacy for political terrorism,  
extermination of classes and violence under the banner of Marxism. The 
assertion  that 
Lenin castigated opponents and therefore invectives are legitimate is  
insane. The assertion that defense of Marxism and Leninism requires invectives  
is not valid. 
 
One can disagree but does not have to be disagreeable or strike a verbal  
pose to intimidate.

It would perhaps be educational to look up the role of force in history  
versus the politically incorrect concept - from the standpoint of Marxism, 
the  role of violence. Force is simultaneously a political power and 
economic power. 
 
Violence is not. That is to say violence is not an economic power. 
 
When Marx wrote in Capital force is the midwife of every society  pregnant 
with the new he discloses the economic content and meaning of force as  an 
economic power. Engels does the same in Anti-Durhing, with three  
segments devoted to this issue.
 
When property is done away with social revolution will cease to take place  
based on force - class antagonism.
