Subject: Now *this* has to be a joke...



  Now, *this* is funny.  An anarcho-capitalist whines about how anarchism 
in the US is starting to go back to it's anti-authoritarian roots (and
how it now exists outside of Usenet).


  "Left anarchism (socialist and communist) are foreign imports that 
   flooded the country like cheap goods during the 19th century. Many 
   of these anarchists (especially those escaping Russia) introduced 
   lamentable traits into American radicalism. They believed in 
   'propaganda by deed': that is, the use of violence as a political 
   weapon and a form of political expression."

  Funny (albeit racist and highly misinformed) stuff.  Feel free to
respond to the author, she's available at mac-AT-zetetics.com.

"While I am neither an anarchist nor a libertarian, 
 Anarchist philosophy inspired thousands of young men and 
 women to volunteer to sail to a foreign land and sacrifice 
 their lives fighting Franco's thugs. Libertarianism can at 
 best inspire someone to buy stocks or express malformed 
 opinions on slashdot. I don't know which is better but I 
 sure know which earns my respect."
