    Well I don't call it my core theory.
    Then, this is just one more area where you differ from Engels, Plekhanov, Lenin, Trotsky, Cliff, Harman, Callinicos...

    Anyway, there's nowt wrong with being 'in development' - in fact its a core facet of the dialectic.
    1) When I try this excuse, you object.

    2) How do you know that "it's a core facet of the dialectic" if you haven't 'developed' yet?

    3) It's a core facet of prevarication, too.

    Now you're just being cruel and if I didn't have a serious drug habit, I'd take exception to that.
    We already know you have a serious drug habit: the opiate of 'dialectics'.

    I don't expect to be 'developed', only 'developing'. it's an open dialectic.

    It's not as good as heroin. But, then, what is?

    Once more, how do you know if you haven't 'developed' enough yet?

    Doesn't need to be; all that is required is that it provides you with the consolation you need for the fact that Dialectical Marxism is such an abject and long-term failure.

    Good point.
    Once more, how do you know this is 'good point' if you are still in the developmental stage?

    For a non-'developed' mystic, you seem to know a lot.
