Steve P vs. Chris H

[jimmyjames at softhome.net]

The Left has to be better than its sectarian past as well as the late
capitalist/consumer present. Denouncing the existent is fine, but
constantly harping on the same individuals over and over again and turning
ideological disputes into personal insults (I'll name no names, but you
know who you are) is worse than irritating. It simply replicates the logic
of the total system, on a smaller scale.

As the military likes to say, friendly fire -- isn't.
