    How is this "a left-communist view of Lenin and the Bolsheviks"? You do realize that left-communists are pro-Bolshevik, right? Paul Mattick was not a left-communist.

    I haven't read it, so I have no idea.

    Read this. http://www.marxists.org/archive/matt...40/trotsky.htm

    That was a pretty random quote, no?

    You seem to be one of the most knowledgeable ML's on the site. Why ML/Stalin/Hoxha? And I guess more so, how?

    What do you make of this quote, which is attributed to Comrade Stalin.

    ''I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this—who will count the votes, and how.''

    The most interesting thing to note is that the book is formatted in a way so that Avakian can be quoted similarly to how one quotes the bible.

    I finished reading Avakian's basic texts. Pretty much what you would expect: ethno-nationalism, identity politics, and turning anti-imperialism into an ideology. I wouldn't say they are worthless, just not much use to anyone who has ever read any amount of Marx or Lenin.

    hey ismail, i was wondering if you'd like to join my Hoxha/Cliff study group on the nature of the evil Russian state capitalism, and Mao's Oriental Despotism.

    i'm sorry if i offended you. i really wasn't taking that topic seriously and i have zero knowledge of hoxha. i just randomly named someone, i wasn't calling hoxha militaristic.

    There is an Albanian gentleman whom I've been discussing life in Hoxhaist Albania. He claims a local Bureaucrat confiscated his home, in 1980, which he then earned back in 1991 after a tough battle in court. He claims his home had 'fascistic architecture,' and that after this event he was forced to go into the rationing system.

    This story is obviously inauthentic, as, by my estimations, his home would have been confiscated long before the time he claims. I'm not so sure on localized corruption though. His later claim also seems to be simple minded. However, I think there might be some truth behind his story.

    I was hoping you could offer some more incite to this.
