    Well, it is #Kravietz ’s right to assert an opinion of course. Although, it doesn’t help his argument that he cherry picks #Varoufakis statements out of context, nor that I was unable to navigate to the actual source of these fragments from his blog notes to judge for myself. A classic case of pushing one’s argument with fragments stiched together for support (there is a term for that but I won’t use it here).

    Be that as it may. If I were to pidgeonhole a writer in a box, I would do so from reading them, listening to their interviews and take it all in the context it was written and spoken before settling on an informed opinion. Relying on second hand, and in this case third hand information to make a decision is bound to lead to errors of judgement IMHO.

    /Now I feel I can ‘leave it there’/

    Thank you for your patience.
