I promised Alex, some days ago, a discussion/debate/barney about Classical Marxism and Marxism-Leninism and Soviet Socialism and all the various very distinct things that get lumped together way too often. However, while I was spoiling for a fight when the issue came up in the comments for Emma Darwin’s excellent VL piece about literary fiction, I’m now rather tired and overworked and not particularly capable of sitting writing an entire post about my particular relationship to Marx.
I will probably have to come back to this later and write something more useful. Unless anyone starts a fight with me in the comments, in which case I’m almost certainly too weak of will not to wade in.
