as if i actually cared anymore . . .
i think anarchism is too idealistic. as good as it sounds, i'm a student, not a factory worker; and i don't beleive in trying to make things perfect, just writing wrongs and trying to prevent them. i think marx/engels were intellegent but too dogmatic with dialectics. smith was an ass, and i don't want to back that up.
for the record: this is an Orwell discussion board. i just remembered the fact myself. to answer your comment: yes, RATM has corporate fuddle that it (was) stuck in, and so will any other let's-kiss-Che-Guevara-band that enters the market. so what? it's only music. turn on the news at 6.00- of course its biased. you actually want to get news from there? it's worthless; you'd be better getting news from the american pentagon.
i don't care. if the world is free of capitalists or not- it doesn't matter. sooner i die tomorrow. if you want a revolution, go ahead. i'd like to see someone screw it up and "betray" it. read Bakunin and Chomsky and Proudhon and Kropotkin and whoever the hell else. read Marx and Lenin and Trotsky and Stalin. it's only epitemological idealism.
