Good morning Duane. Very true the article said nothing - nothing whatsoever about Maduro. Indeed - an astonishingly shocking omission...
Why...?! well, it was written in February 11, 2021 ( https://mlcurrents.net/2021/02/ ) Nor did it say anything about most countries in the world, it only dwelt with Syria, Iran, Iraq, USA and Russia. Quite a lot left out. ( "Can't trust these Stalinist bastards - eh? They are always hiding something - eh?" is the echo that I hear, I can only suppose). However my views of Maduro's shenanigans and postures are openly stated - here: https://mlrg.online/politics/the-struggle-for-control-of-venuezelas-oil-a-short-marxist-history-to-venezuelan-electoral-crisis-2024/ You might - and are likely to note - that was written September 13, 2024. So in case you will now say 'that was very late' - perhaps now a slightly fainter echo being yet again ' Stalinists hiding things again ') - In January 2003 we noted: https://mlrg.online/politics/the-struggle-for-control-of-venuezelas-oil-a-short-marxist-history-to-venezuelan-electoral-crisis-2024/ It was you who made the equation: from Maduro->Communist Party Venezuela-> Syria-> What "stalinists do". Not me. I would have and was inclined to (and perhaps should have done) as I usually do and left your one-sentence slurs alone. But this "equation" of a revisionist party in Venezuela with what all "stalinists do" - with a reach back to Syria... was just a bit too far. I allowed myself to be provoked. I should not have risen to your low hanging bait. But yes - It does need finer vision to note that using dismissive concepts like "Stalinists" is an easy way to not think further about an issue and dismiss it. My offer stands of an optician referral. H -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
