Here's the problem, John. All of the marxists on the list are agreed
on one thing, if nothing else. There is no positive role for
capitalism to play in avoiding The Crash.
If you have a plan that finds a positive role for capitalism to play in
the future ahead, then let us know. We'd like to hear it.
Meanwhile, most of the theorizing that goes on, is in regard to how to
get rid of capitalism so that the world can then reconstruct what's left
of it to reconstruct.
If you knock marxist theorizing as being not of import to avoiding the
crash, then you must seem to also believe that capitalist society can be
reformed into avoiding its current destructiveness. Please tell us
how so. We're willing to listen.

Thank you Tony. I don't know about Aaron but I am not particularly
interested in the finer points of Marxist (or any other) theory or
theology. They would only be of value if they could offer a demonstrable
and practical way of avoiding the crash - which, although it sometimes
seems most contributors have forgotten - is the whole point of this
group (as far as I know).
Having been on the group for a few weeks, it seems to me that in spite
of Mark's good efforts to keep discussion more or less on topic and
presented in a reasonably positive manner, it might nevertheless be a
good idea for the group to split into two separate e-groups: those who
want to talk and duel endlessly about theories and theologies and those
who are genuinely interested in finding, discussing and positively
debating practical and readily understandable ideas and ways of avoiding
the crash. Alternatively, perhaps someone already knows of such a group
in which case I'll sign up to it.
All the best.
John
