Someone told me to look into that site due to my opposition to various flimsy policies...

Anarchy, and phony concern. Really it's a bunch of teens trying to sound important. It's not like they're urban terrorists, and it's not like I couldn't get the G crack down on them.

Oh yeah, it's so cooool to slag off people with different views than yourself, isn't it Oblivion & Khazadman.

Well perhaps I think you're 'homos' by which of course I mean some idiotic definition that I just made up because I'm a complete wanker.

Personally I can't stand Anarchists. I consider them all to be fools.

But I don't call them homos. Though I will explain in detail while I consider them and their views to be foolish if they tell me that they're Anarchists.

And I do agree somewhat with Oblivion, a lot of these "Anarchists" are just teenagers who're "fighting against the evil fascist regime" and who consider themselves to be important while in fact noone really cares.

Today, I saw a dog,
Yes, a dog.
Talking to a pig,
Yes, a pig.
They were on the pavement,
Discussing Trotsky.
Not brotsky or crotsky or drotsky or frotsky.
But Trotsky.

My main problem with sites like this is that they tend to be so one sided that you really have to struggle to pull out fact from conjecture and guesswork. With this in mind I must point out that there are many books about the global economy and the rise of corporation domination. Offhand I can think of No logo.

I am leftwing and I guess I can understand the want for some place to air views about topics more general boards like IW hate dealing with. The problem is the abundance of idealism and lack of reality that the sight owners tend to have. The grand statements are childish, this limits greatly any influence the site can have. Unfortunately for these '' anarchists'' for any change to be achieved they must be adults all the time, absolutely calm and collected. The opposite of what they appear to be.

I don't believe in destroying the powers that be to build new world orders, a lot of people die pointlessly that way. I believe in evolving the nation into something more humane gradually. The various anarchists are too much for glory, what was that quote again. The mark of an ignorant man is wanting to die gloriously for a cause, the mark of an enlightened man is to live humbly for it. Something like that anyway. My point being is all the posturing is wasted air when real work can be done. If I was a true anarchist seeking to destroy the state I would never tell anyone about it unless I could trust them deeply. Honestly I laugh a lot at the present face of anarchism and the popular left which tends to be an opportunity to sell t-shirts and make money on people who think they are beginning a revolution. The rebellion of youth is very much these days a calculated business opportunity.

Well, you're a damn moron if you think a race of sheep like ourselves can actually survive an environment of total equality. There's human drive, Anarchy can't last. There's the historical reality, Anarchy doesn't bring anything close to equality. It just brings a decay to true Nietzsche environments. His example that man cannot handle itself without leaders is correct. He himself was a racist, so they say. I doubt it, but I'd have to read his work. We're very much a group that inclines itself to falling in line. It's easier to know that you don't have to think. Besides, Anarchy also means change, something people can't understand. The very workings of socialism are impossible unless implemented on a global scale. If done so, the Marxist dream could be real, and people could follow Plato's Eudaimonia. It's all possible, and I didn't slag all anarchists off, did I? Yes, I did now, as they want the impossible. Before, I said the site was run by a bunch of teens who wanted to feel important. I'm not wrong.
