Comrades and other folks,
Much has changed in my attitudes over the past year. Although there
hasn't been any opportunity for ideal organization until the past
month or so, my theoretical development has accelerated quite rapidly
over the time frame.
Most of the spare time I've had was used on RevLeft. Things really
got going with the establishment of the specific user groups there,
when I was able to put many if not most of the pieces of the puzzle
together on the theoretical front.
It all started when I read key sections of Lars Lih's Lenin
Rediscovered. I was curious about the mentions of what happened in
Erfurt, Germany in terms of "merging Marxism with the workers'
movement." I then read Chapter 5 of Kautsky's The Class Struggle and
the Table of Contents, and then... presto! I found out how to
organize my thoughts into one cohesive whole (scattered around
challenges to revolutionary Marxism, class relations, circumstantial
discussive unity, etc.).
Ben, I still don't know if you're interested in my WIP.
