First off, apologies for the double posting. My e-mail app went haywire
for some reason.
I was in no way accusing Carl of Bolshevist leanings. I was merely
suggesting that Trotsky might have been influenced by his philosophy in
making a stylistic decision. Which is fine. That's what Weltanshauungen
are supposed to do: influence every aspect of one's life. And though no
Bolshevist, I definitely approve of objectivity. My point was that
ostentatiously avoiding the first person is not necessarily the best way
of displaying objectivity--or even humility.
