The imperialist mind is strong. When the issue is that of socialist 
revolution to win an anticolonial war he brings the fate of that 
small individual, Galtieri -[long digression here] whose hands were 
by the way, blood stained but less blood stained than the hands of 
those (included many colleagues of our economist in California) who 
opposed the war, and, for example, continued to pay the Foreign Debt 
to England during the confrontation [end of long digression]-, as if 
it mattered a dime. The only thing that Brad DeLong is interested in, 
in fact, is a personal vendetta with a despicable rogue, not the 
opening of a vast battlefield for socialism and revolution.

Progressive imperialism, not imperialist progressivism. The adjective 
was misplaced.
