The US police state, the "best" in the world

332. here we go...

1.) Looking up that article, Hedges talked about deliberating violent revolt. That usually includes riots.
2.) Am I a capitalist? If you mean I like making money...then yes I am a capitalist. If you mean I like investing in things I believe in... then yes, I am a capitalist. If you mean do I like rampant speculation, pushing for off-shoring jobs...then no, I am not.
3.) Economic Marxism clearly doesn't work. Yes, yes, yes... I've heard the usual litany of reasons it didn't work... I call BS on all of it.
4.) Cultural Marxism is even more stupid than the economic version. Both versions rely on cheap rhetorical tricks and hand waving, to cover the facts... that it clearly doesn't work, and was designed by the mentally ill. (althusser being only the first in a LOOOONG line of nut bars.)
5.) I read history too. It encourages me to keep Marxists OUT of any group I'm part of. (If you show up at my lab, you will be escorted out, via taser, if need be.) I just finished a 70 page thesis, about one group of technically inclined people, who had to deal with multiple incursions of would-be Marxists. Personally, I would have applied pepper spray, and then reported them as cultists that were disturbing the peace.
6.) Marx's original work advocated for the violent overthrow of established society. The ISR advocated propaganda tricks, to inculcate people into Marxism, while they weren't aware of the process. Personally, I believe Marxists are right up there with dealers in hard drugs, fringe militia, and child molesters.
