About 3 years ago I found out that I could understand some of your postings by exchanging the words "socialism" for "capitalism" when ever they occurred - you fell for the Soviet lie that called their oppressive state capitalism by the name of "socialism"...

If that was a lie, then it is odd that until Khruschev renounced Stalin, the entire left fell for it. I have frequently commented on Chomsky's extraordinary servility towards Soviet foreign policy. Even to this day the socialists white wash Sihanouk, because though he was murdering real and suspected communists internally, he served Soviet foreign policy in external affairs. --digsig James A.
