The difference between you and me, Dennis, is that I am out there
helping the weak and powerless, the undocumented immigarnts that are
exploited and suffer from racism. I am out there, doing my bit in the
same union, and supporting the massive strikes by undocumented
immigrants in the hotel industry in France. I am out there helping
undocumented comrades from the service union spread the word and resit
their opressor.
You, on the other hand, are out there claiming that reactionary forces
have a right to crush the weakest and most vulnerable : women and Muslim
immigrants, under the heel of patriarchy and obscurantism.
That is the essential difference between me and you.
Do you not realize that religious conservatism is the handmaiden of
capitalism ? I would think that the ability to distinguish between the
oppressed and oppressor is the ABC of any type of leftist worldview.
