[lbo-talk] breaking news: I'm a "committed Leninist"

[martin]

Occam's razor suggests that a leninist has a picture of lenin in the 
kitchen and (more practically) a practice of turning to a theory of 
leninist history, concretely based in documentary form, to find 
rationale for action and beliefs held.

Personally, I find you a committed 'dativist' - a dative 'case' - acted 
upon by data. I'm sorry that doesn't seem a warmer opinion. But look 
below. Even there you ask 'who's against it', looking for the data. A 
statist through.
