    Hey what's wrong with the Alliance for Worker's Liberty? I don't know much about them, but one of our members is a former member.

    Hi Kautskizt! Regarding Steenson's remark about the Agrardebatte: I think that Bebel, after reading and hearing about Kautsky's objections (which he asked for in some letters I've been able to read), admitted he made a mistake. It must have been difficult for Bebel not to abandon his early ideas when Kautsky accused him of actually defending Volmar(ites), even though Volmar and others did not support Bebel's compomise. I.e. Kautsky showed Bebel his (vulgar) centrism in this debate.

    So, if we can conclude that Bebel admitted his mistake, then we can probably conclude that the fundamental problem is not formed by Bebel's or Kautsky's attitudes towards "foreign classes" but with their submission to the labor aristocracy.

    I think Yehuda is quite right to "throw around" the word centrist in his own way because - if what he claims is right - the CWI and IMT are centrist. And I mean genuinely centrist: reformism dressed up in revolutionary talk (not vulgar centrist: social liberalism drenched in reformism). The CWI and IMT are, in the eyes of Yehuda, modern-day Kautsky's with their apolegetic militancy which only results in, at best, reformist parties betraying the class which they should represent.

"A new centrist project does not have to repeat these mistakes. Nobody in this topic is advocating a carbon copy of the Second International (which again was only partly centrist)." (Tjis, class-struggle anarchist)

"A centrist strategy is based on patience, and building a movement or party or party-movement through deploying various instruments, which I think should include: workplace organising, housing struggles [...] and social services [...] and a range of other activities such as sports and culture. These are recruitment and retention tools that allow for a platform for political education." (Tim Cornelis, left-communist)
