1) I am not defending the imprisonment of Bohdan Syrotyuk. I simply pointed out that regardless of what he and his group, WSWS, may call themselves, they are not Marxists. I also don't know what he does or really stands for inside Ukraine and I doubt anybody on this list does either. (Of course, some on this list apologize for Putin so they probably have no problem with WSWS.)
2) Regarding my having voted against Trump in 2020 and the possibility that I will do so again this year: It always amuses me to see the rrrrealllly rrrrrevolutionary voices ferociously denounce the Democrats.... inside the walls of their nice, safe little echo chambers. However, once they set foot outside those walls, things are entirely different. What do we see, for example, when in the presence of ex-union bureaucrats and the academics who are connected to those bureaucrats? Take for example the "nationally recognized experts" Dan La Botz and Bill Fletcher jr., both of whom defend the union bureaucracy's links to the Democrats. What do we hear from the rrrrevolutionaries then? Nothing but timid silence.
