The bibliography is a list of books; as such, it has its own integrity and credibility. [Has it been posted here in its entirety? Have you seen it in its entirety?] You (and anyone else) are free to judge that in its totality when you have read them in their totality. Your attempt, however, to smear my integrity and credibility is evident and noted. Whatever my integrity and credibility may be will also be evident when you have read everything I've written or posted in the last little while, when you have some sense of what I went through about three to six years ago, and what I have dealt with since then. From your distance, to be casting aspersions seems to mark your integrity and credibility more than mine.
Would it help if I cede the position of "most knowledgeable about Marx, Marxism, socialism"? I stand ready to do that (especially if it doesn't mean I haven't read a thing or two, or intend not to continue reading).
Otherwise, I would continue to inquire openly as to your intent.
