Am I supposed to believe you're fighting against corporate exploitation and for a world of less exploitation? Or are you actually Rush supporters?

Look, I've read Kropotkin, and understand the rationales and dynamics of anarchism. I support the ideal, unfortunately, I also have a sense of history.

In the late 1800s we had an agrarian revolt in this country. The farmers organized, creating cooperatives, and there were a hell of a lot of farmers back then, meaning a hell of a lot of people were part of that populist movement. At one point, they had 40,000 people working a speaker's circuit. Their leadership was generally "radical," denouncing corporate power and advocating deep institutional changes.

Despite that increadible level of deep and wide organization, that movement fell apart. We're nowhere near that level of organization, and you find the time to put down Michael Moore? I'm sure Rush Limbaugh would cackle if he read this web posting. Newt Gingrich would say, "They're self-destructiong on the left, just as I predicted." Ann Coulter would say, "Hey look over there on the left. They're eating their own."

Today, the right wing has taken over the country, both the institutions and the way a great number of people think. Our radical movement doesn't come close to matching that of the agrarian revolt. I'm all for street protests, but if you think that's gonna bring about revolution, you're sadly mistaken.

If the government collapsed today, it wouldn't be due to street protests. It would be due to an economic collapse. And then what? Pandafuckingmonium, becase the left is so disorganized.

We're in more trouble than I thought.
