Apart from insipid and soporific internal ideological quarrels in the socialist movement the only criterion for judging any self-proclaimed SOCIALIST is where he or she stands in the everyday class struggle. I have never in my life endeared myself to any ruling class elites.
I have no intention of voting for Bernie Sanders or suggesting that serious socialists support him. I extend " critical support " to ANY human being who talks sense and tells the truth about issues critical to working class activists.
If you think the Catholic Pope or some compromised capitalist politician can never talk sense or tell the truth , how can you ever reach out to ordinary working class people ?
I think all forms of identity politics should be avoided in the socialist movement.
Is SOCIALIST a patented brand name- YOUR intellectual property ?
Should not the working class pass final judgment on its own would be voices and leaders ?
Also, I will leave Catholic Church bashing to the New Atheists. There are few " socialists " among them. They prefer Ayn Rand to Marx, Lenin, or Trotsky. Prove me mistaken here ?
