You spend a lot of time arguing with people about whether or not you’ve read a book? This is a pretty pathetic non point.

The socialist, that you guys claim wrote a book about the evil future under socialism, is being used as prop, that much is true. Mostly seems like you guys just don’t like that I’m pointing it out though.

And all the while everyone who uses his brain knows that Socialism, as a world-system and wholeheartedly applied, is a way out.

The average thinking person nowadays is not merely not a Socialist, he is actively hostile to Socialism. This must be due chiefly to mistaken methods of propaganda.

And please notice that I am arguing for Socialism, not against it. But for the moment I am advocatus diaboli.

Shoulda read the whole chapter first, bitch.

It should come as no surprise that his critique of socialists and how it doesn’t appeal to certain types of people is brilliant and still relevant today. But sweet out of context quote, bro.

Big fan of the Socialist side in the Spanish Civil War in the 30's. Then got to see Socialism at work in Europe and the Soviet Union after WW2 and like most rational human beings at the time that romanticized your beloved socialism since the Russian Revolution, moved away from it when the bodies stacked like cordwood could no longer hide the lies and deceptions inherent in that system.

Dream on, Junior. Your brand of Socialism is loaded to the gills with Authoritarianism and Tyranny, including the silencing of viewpoints you can't handle and eliminating ideas you don't like. Orwell hated that shit with a passion and warned about exactly what you preach in 1984.

You use him, I don't.

His books are so simplistic.

I've known his shit since I was 20. He thinks you and your ilk are fascist.

Also have had the most leftist education possible at UW. Graduated from it with honors.

You're a dumb fuck trying to play checkers here. Just like the teachers.

I simply point out his political beliefs when right wingers bring up his work. I’m sorry that makes you so uncomfortable that you feel the need to lash out.

He didn’t move away from it.

And you don’t know anything about my brand of socialism.

"Brand of socialism"? There is no "brand". There is just socialism and socialism has failed since its inception. millions of lives lost but here you are trying to do it all again. Only idiots are doomed to repeat history's failures.
