Whats wrong with calling Castro a dictator or Stalin a mass murderer? These sound like fairly accurate statements to me. Fidel turned a popular revolution into a cult of personality, and we wont even mentioned Stalin's purges. Thats the problem with the left today, we feel we have to idolize any individual who has reflected our views at all. When in reality these are just normal people, flawed and egocentric. (thats what i would say about Castro anyway, for fear of being shunned from the list I wont talk about how Stalin bastardized everything lennin stood for) Preparing for the onslaught, JL > > Message: 8 > From: "hkb" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [MLL]Weekly Worker 376 (21/3/01) > Date: Sun, 25 Mar 2001 07:36:32 +0100 > charset="iso-8859-1" > Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > The Weekly Worker is NOT the paper of the Communist Party Of Great Britain, > but of a tiny Trotskyite sect which (mis)uses the name.
