Happy New Era

Monkey Smashes Heaven has put forward several points that merit attention:
I see no reason to disagree over any of points 1 through 8.

Lin Biao:
1) Lin Biao was accused -falsely?- of running an attempted coup.
2) Even if Lin Biao did run a coup attempt so what? Truth is truth no matter who says it.
a) Lin Biao's theory of people's war is correct. The global "countryside" can encircle the global "city".

MIM "degeneration"
The Art Ministry isn't PIRAO. I'm not and don't want or need to be aware of the level of penetration of MIM by spies or of what concession MIM has and will extract or how MIM does that.

The issue is whether and what affect spies had on MIM's line.
So it's the same question/issue as Lin Biao.
Either MIM's line is correct or it isn't, just like Lin Biao.

Gender:
MSH rightly wants to fight out gender/sex issues. These coincidentally are the places I would have attacked the MIM if I were the state. They are also not cardinal issues in MIM's line. So I still see no reason for MSH to have split from MIM. MSH whines about MIM's line on gender but has yet to develop something more coherent.

Let's look at the MIM controversial gender line then.

1) Age of consent at 14.
To me that's at worst one year too young. MSH hasn't grappled with this nor has anyone else in fact.

2) All sex is rape. (ASIR)

ASIR evolved out of "all sex is prostitution". (ASIP) I would be okay with ASIP though like I said how does one distinguish ASIP from ASIR?

Suppose MSH is correct and ASIR is incorrect? Then what, if anything, would be wrong with making porn? MSH rejects ASIR - then why is MSH not happy about sex in the Art Ministry's work?

3) Pimping/whoring for the revolution (whores not wars)

MIM explicitly said go right ahead and do that well before the Art Ministry took that line up and ran with it. MIM doesn't have a naked news network or pornotube site because your minister is wanting to reexamine these questions first.

Does MSH have a line on ASIP? On prostitution generally?
These issues were circling around the questions of Reich, Kollontai and Kristeva.

I would prefer to see these issues debated on something like the proboards or egroups/yahoo groups. I think that would lead to the quickest advance.
However MIM thought that such sites led to security risks so I have not set up an egroup/board for that.

Does MSH have a line on ASIP? Age of consent? Gay rights? Prostitution? Pimping/whoring for revolution?

Also I see no reason to call Maoism anything other than Maoism.
