By over-simplistic denunciations I take it you mean statements like:
> "It is not that there are inequalities because there

>are created by class divisions." -quoting Wojtek
AND

>hair splitting and a blame game which first cannot be answered in a

Should I point out that these two "complex" statements of yours on the issue are in simple contradiction. AND this last Gem which is always my favorite: generalizing from personal experience to explain or describe a complex object of socio-historical inquiry).

Sorry to be so blunt Wojtek but you have been bully-boying your way around on this one.
