Bauerism (as well as a voting system that might overcome the danger of ethno-majority tyranny) both came up in this thread: https://www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/forum/topic/against-lesser-of-the-two-evils-ism-on-the-article-was-the-jewish-bund-anti-semitic/#post-132981
Glenn Greenwald: ‘AOC’s Attack on Yang’s Meaningless Israel Statement Shows Her Role: Protect Dem Leaders — Real power over U.S. policy toward Israel and Gaza rests with Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Schumer, Blinken — not Yang. But AOC’s function is to shield them from leftist anger.’:

‘Anarchists (and “Utopian Socialists”) argued that it could have been and could be established anywhere and at any time in history. Marx argued that *one of its conditions was productive forces capable of providing plenty for all*.’
Can you supply some Marx-text for that? Thanks.
(I don’t know if he exactly rates as a utopian socialist or anarchist, but if I am not too mistaken, what you characterise as the anarchist view is also that of, say, Jean Barrot/Gille Dauvé — as well as some of the other ‘communisers’.

As to your second point, the purpose of this part of the definition (‘Denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination’) is almost certainly purely and simply intended to delegitimise any possible rising tide of support for the ‘One-State’ solution. (As opposed to a hypothetical world-universal No-State solution.) But their reply (if any) would be very interesting indeed, yes.
PS: Among self-identifying Jews in the US, support for the One-State solution has according to these figures anyway risen to 13%: https://mondoweiss.net/2020/11/a-biden-presidency-would-bring-huge-pressure-on-liberal-zionists-from-pro-bds-jews/ (About the middle of that page.) And it is reasonably guessed to be around 25% among the young.A much better obituary of Fisk than the Guardian’s.
