Most likely, several people abstained from the vote or simply kept their mouths shut because they were too afraid to give their actual opinion on it for fear of being lambasted by the leadership and eventually shunned by the party. I've witnessed this happening several times myself. "Unanimous"... anything but. The WSWS NEVER ever reports how many abstentions took place in the course of passing a resolution. I hope this SEP supporter wakes up to reality soon! A healthy organization has disagreements and the record should reflect that in the form of votes cast. It wasn't until the Third International became Stalinist that everything suddenly became "unanimous". I bet all those people "agreed," too...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
