Criticizing a party that calls itself Communist for supporting a centrist bourgeois politician is stale? I feel like I'm getting way out of touch. ((((((((( CB: The elections over. That's what makes it stale. Well , are you a communist ? Do you support communism ? If not, you seem to be criticizing communists for not being communist enough for you, but you don't really support communism, so, you could probably be criticized for taking a number of positions that aren't good communism, like do I understand correctly that you are not quite certain that capitalism is all bad ? Hey that's just as bad as supporting a centrist bourgeois politician. Anyway, it is a projection of a sectarian position on communists to imply that communists never support centrist bourgeois politicians. It's like you apply an ultra-radical standard to communists that you don't believe yourself , or something. No need to defend communists against a non-communist's requirements of how to be a communist. Now if you want to look into being a communist... > Get with what is happening now and support Gore getting the lead in >Florida. That's the up to the minute left position. Which is the losing position too, by coincidence. (((((((((( CB: Oh yea, your position is with that "winner" Bush . Is that a coincidence ?
