Kongshojism is born! *L* j/k

I humbly thank you, comrade, for that one. I can't wait to see what Nat Turner and Sprout and the others have to say about it though. My theories probably do have holes seen from a capitalist point of view, but then it isn't meant for capitalists, who as we all know can't see what they will get out of changing the system.

But I mean it. Those -isms are probably what is splitting socialism most for the time being. We have to get over the time of pseudo-religious pursuit of dead thinkers. A curious fact is that the word 'leninism' was devised by Lenin's enemies *), the words 'trotskism' and 'titoism' by Stalin and the word 'castroism' by Americans. It seems strange we are taking those -isms to us when we are not enemies of their fathers.

*) which is also the explanation for the Trotskij quote that "the foundation of Leninism is based on lies". He was referring to the word leninism as used by Lenin's enemies, not to Lenin's writings.
