[lbo-talk] Proyect on Nathan Newman and Reconstruction

[joanna bujes]

Well, who knows? "Communist" is a loaded word. To some its synonymous 
with "dictatorship of the party cadre," to some it means those who are 
willing to pursue the logic of an idea....no matter what the 
cost...because it's such a radical idea, to others it just means "we're 
going to share and we really mean it."

So, you know. I would not characterize LBO as anti-communist.
