The line-drawers usually like them fine and bright, with no spaces.
There's no question that politics is about defining enemies as well as friends. But some people, whether they formally belong to sects or not, show as much interest in writing out forces that are more or less on their side. I don't know what Proyect, for example, hopes to accomplish by denoucning me and Scott McLemee for having "renounced" or "moved away from" Marxism, as if Marxism were some easily definable position, like belief in the Virgin Birth.
