Even if he's some sort of maoist-trot-luxemburgist(?). He's probably read more Lenin than anyone on the site.

He was a hardcore Maoist in his youth, the Deng reforms really destroyed him. If you're a fan of Finkelstein, Paul Jay did a really great series of interviews with him years ago, pretty funny too.
