Dan Fein of the Socialist Workers Party - from Trotskyist idealist to Jack Barnes Cult thug ?

Shared with Public

There is a contradiction between the young Dan Fein I met in Rhode Island circa 1970  and the present day old SWP party hack .  Fein was then  a  leader of the Young Socialist Alliance on the Brown University campus ( I  recall Dan being a physics major -a brain ) and later  United States Senate candidate for Rhode Island  .  In 1976 I was a presidential elector for the Socialist Workers Party in Rhode Island .
[ " We face the same charge of anti-Semitism from the pro-Israel side in its campaign to try to intimidate and silence anti-Zionist activists. Considering that I recently spoke on a pro-Palestine panel alongside SWP member Dan Fein, the Militant seems an unlikely source for the argument. So it's fair enough to ask just which side these socialists are on.  ]

Forgetting its anti-Zionist past , the Socialist Workers Party now slobbers before APARTHEID Israel as a " Refuge for Jews "

GREAT LEADERS of the working class - Jack Barnes and Mary Alice Waters  of the Socialist Workers Party ?
     You got to be kidding !
 Again THE REVOLUTION begins with a FOR SALE  BOOK instead of an OPEN LETTER ( via David North of Socialist Equality Party  ) .

[SPRINGFIELD, Ohio — “This is a book about the dictatorship of capital and the road to the dictatorship of the proletariat,” Socialist Workers Party National Secretary Jack Barnes said, pointing to Malcolm X, Black Liberation, and the Road to Workers Power. ]
     No surprise here : Barnes makes his party a pillar of Zionist Apartheid Israel :

[Refuge for Jews in imperialist epoch  - EXCERPT below 
The endurance of Jew-hatred in the imperialist epoch, and its use at times of crisis by the capitalist rulers to divide and crush the working class and its communist vanguard, requires the revolutionary party to champion the fight against it and unconditionally defend the right of Israel to exist today, SWP leader Dave Prince said in the second major conference presentation. It was entitled, “For Unconditional Recognition of Israel as a Refuge for Jews in the Imperialist Epoch: The Stakes for the World Working Class.”]

The WORKERS OF THE WORLD await instructions from North's WORLD SOCIALIST WEB SITE ( but remember his devoted staff always have weekends off )

I do find it rather ludicrous that these weird sectarian " Marxist " political parties [ the Socialist Equality Party, led by GREAT LEADER  and " enterprising Jew " David North , reminds me so much of the Church of Scientology with its  graduate " Clears " ]  think they can spark a Bolshevik type  socialist revolution  by  OPEN LETTERS  ( from some academic Ivory Tower ? ) to  some generic " working class of the world ".  We can guess that the WORKERS OF THE WORLD await instructions from North's WORLD SOCIALIST WEB SITE ( but remember his devoted staff always have weekends off ) .
                   The Russian Bolshevik Revolution was more than a century ago . A hundred years is a very long time .  Presently there is not a single " Marxist " party on the planet earth that has not degenerated into God-hating , good-for-nothing  , ridiculous cult with the inevitable " inner core " of well intentioned but neurotic Jews or not so well intentioned fifth columnists for Zionist APARTHEID Israel.  The masses never were inspired by the wonder of  brainless , soul-less ,MATTER -IN- MOTION ( " dialectical materialism " )  and  the  infallibility of  a totalitarian structured  VANGUARD PARTY ( like the once respectable Socialist Workers Party of the USA - still an 80 year old  Jack Barnes  personality cult )  .
               It would help , of course , if these  obtuse, sectarian Marxist parties- now all clearly STALINIST !- could actually communicate with real " workers of the world ". But  quarreling with one another is their very mode of existence.
  As a life long democratic socialist  I think only a mass INDEPENDENT LABOR PARTY  -and a vast coalition of working class community and religious  organizations - can end the death agony of capitalism  in 21st century USA.
