Αλλά την Κυριακή δεν ήταν σοφός. Την Κυριακή αποδείχτηκε ότι σκέφτεται με βάση το συμφέρον του… Και ότι είναι μικρόψυχος και συμφεροντολόγος! Τι;!;! Είναι ο ελληνικός λαός τέτοιο πράγμα; Δηλαδή, 30 χρόνια ήταν ιδεαλιστής του σοσιαλδημοκρατικού τρίτου δρόμου ή οπαδός του νεοφιλελευθερισμού και ξαφνικά μεταβλήθηκε σε στυγνό παρτάκια συμφεροντολόγο; Τι μου λέτε; Κοίτα να δεις πως αλλάζουν οι άνθρωποι…

Όλο το κειμενάκι σωστό. Διαβάστε το.

Yes, there has been a death penalty for unauthorized copying. Guess what? Even the death penalty didn’t work.

Great little article on what the real purpose is behind the more and more draconian measures against unauthorized file sharing.

This is typical shit. We libertarians are irritated at these people co-opting the word “libertarian” and perverting it.

Someone help. I think my irony meter just broke!

I feel genuinely sorry for any child I might have who ever asks me for anything for Christmas, only to be informed that every time a “Place Order” button rings, a poor person takes four Advil and gets told they suck at their job.

This article shows just why wage slavery is called exactly that. That it’s not “voluntary” as vulgar libertarians would like to delude themselves.

Reading this post was just so depressing…

So, yeah, now I’m on github as well (and I like it). Unfortunately around that time everyone else also went inactive. Oh well, see you around there.

You speak of dignity, that everyone should be treated with dignity. I agree with you. But you can’t treat someone with dignity, or expect to be treated with dignity in return, while one person is up high and the other person is down low, while your boot is on their neck.

It is unfortunate but expected that the Anarchist Mandy Hiscocks has been sentenced to prison time for their acts in the G20 protests. In their closing statement, they provided a scathing critique of the “justice” system and its support for systematic oppression. I can’t recomment reading it enough.

Also visit Mandy’s blog.

I plan to write a few posts refuting the more compelling parts of the Bingo. They will most likely be short & sweet, and rather than expand mercilessly upon them, I’ll link to more detailed arguments elsewhere. Stay tuned.

Then with the tanks, now with the banks.

You now know to express heavy repression on the anniversary of Alexis. Be prepared.

laughing at/telling rape jokes is a pretty clear indicator of how little you can personally identify with the very real consequences of a very real act, just like laughing at/telling lynching jokes is a pretty clear indicator that you’re so so so white, and have never known and will never know somebody who was lynched (though you might know somebody who did the lynching).

Wholeheartedly suggested.

Also this.

So, here is my challenge for those who want to tell rape jokes:

Ask every woman in your life if she has been sexually assaulted. Ask her to tell you her story. This means your mother, your sister, your girlfriend, your grandma.

Once you have heard all their stories, go watch a movie with a rape scene in it. One you didn’t mind before. One you thought people were overly offended by.

Now tell me a joke.
