ZeroNowhere

Admittedly I haven't actually read much at all. I spent nearly two years lurking on revleft before I decided my politics weren't so shit any more that I could post without embarrassing myself. I basically drew all my present views from the left communists on this forum. Around the time I labelled myself a communist and shortly before I discovered revleft, I had attempted to read the manifesto. I was like 13 or 14 and I found the language too difficult, so the idea of delving right into more of Marx and Engels' theoretical works intimidated me at the time. Now that I've basically had their views summarised for me by the leftcoms, etc. on this forum, I've decided to read Marx and Engels in their own words, but this time I'd be able to actually understand what they were saying. So no I haven't read Tansey's critique, but I'll be sure to read it when I'm done with Marx and Engel's main stuff (and who really knows when that will be, since I've got exams coming up in about a week).

the critique of the AFAQ you wrote apparently almost three years ago (http://www.revleft.com/vb/critique-a...349/index.html) actually turned out to be some help to me in this thread: http://www.revleft.com/vb/why-libert...html?p=2284560

any plans to expand further or maybe cover more of the AFAQ?

I have never actually used the ignore function on the site so that I could actually not see his posts. I just made a few attempts when we were both new to this site, given we are close in age, to talk to him but found it impossible. So I started never responding to his threads or posts but for some reason I got lured in to responding again.

you'd be right, actually.

how I can be prejudiced towards young teens is seriously beyond me but whatever

Thank you, this was pretty helpful actually to discover my (most probable) subject to get

fuck are you smoking

Just got your e-peen up to 3000. 2999 was an annoying odd number.

Yeah, apparently.

Either way, the official answer was that anyone with multiple infractions got pruned from the group, so.

Thank you for the link as well, I remember Lenin when asked if he knew Deleon, he recalled an Old man sitting in the back (with at the time, young Herman Gorter I believe) in the Amsterdam Congress of 2nd International.

Looking over some of the National Archives I found some pamphelts and editorials for the early SLP which detail the SLP's reaction to the Comintern's 21 principles. It would also appear that they, like the Communist Left, rejected the 21 principles and upholded Internationalism.

I am finding myself more and more in line with Deleon on a number of questions. I enjoyed the definition you gave to Kadir Ates on Deleonism btw.
