Mister X

You're very welcome!

Haha! There's the back...

Respect for the Hamas thread.

The reaction to your post has been ridiculous.

each one member has a different rep altering power!Its decided based on the years ou are on the board the posts you have and the rep!
You have 1 for start, 1 for each year on the board, 1 for every 1000 posts you have, and 1 for every 100 rep points you get!That way people give different rep points!

Haha

Very true. I print most longer articles because of that. Imagine my pile of paper? No, it's higher

RSS

It's a nice way to check up on sites. An "rss reader" is akin to an email client, but instead of emails, you get a notice when a new article has been published on whichever site you have an rss feed on. It really saves time if you're checking up on a dozen or so sites

Yeah, the IMT itself has a critical tone about Chavez, but on the other hand they also have the "Hands Of Venezuela" campaign, which completely lacks that tone. I just don't understand that I guess.

But I guess I'll add IDoM to my rss reader and read even more on my daily round

I do hope we will remerge one day though, due to revolutionary events.

To put things in perspective a bit: It isn't very odd that In Defense of Marxism and we share similar analysis. Until the early 1990's the guys behind the IMT (international behind In Defense of Marxism) were still part of the CWI. This socalled Grant-Woods Tendency split over the question of the old workers parties which in the opinion of the majority of the CWI turned out to become full capitalist parties (not only Labour in the UK, but pretty much every social-democratic party internationally - this was partly due to the fall of the USSR in which not only you but whole layers got disillusioned).

The Grant-Woods Tendency was of the opinion that Labour was still a genuine workers party and remained active in it, to this day. The IMT that was subsequently formed copied this same tactic everywhere.

Besides this question I would say that we also differ on our analysis of Venezuela in which the IMT adopts a very pro-Chavez attitude, where we hold on to critical support.
