“So just where do you debate your politics?”
I used to debate my politics at RevLeft, until they banned me for being too effective at demolishing dialectics.
“i assume you have viewed other pages of our website and know that we see Leninism as fundamentally no progress to the working class but in fact a hinderance – totally contrary to Marx’s maxim…well the International’s if we have to be exact , ‘The emanicaption of the working class will be an act of the workers themselves.’ Isn’t Lenin substituting the party for the class?”
Yes I am familiar with this tradition in Marxism — in fact, I used to read your publications when I was deciding which version of Marxism appealed to me back in the early 1980s. Needless to say, I decided against your view.
Your comment about the self-emancipation of the working class I take very seriously (indeed, it’s in my signature!), but, as I said, I have only come here to defend myself against the misleading comments about my work found on page one, and to discuss dialectics, and for no other reason.
So, you are wasting your time trying to draw me out.
