@nerdosyndical @gavinsaywhat @masondeese – that statement is OBVIOUSLY true & the response that I “know nothing about Marxism” dishonest

Wed 30 Nov 2011 07:02

@nerdosyndical @gavinsaywhat @masondeese – in fact I just said “most” “traditional” Marxists argued for the dictatorship of the proletariat

Wed 30 Nov 2011 07:01

@nerdosyndical @gavinsaywhat @masondeese – looked back at original article – sorry, what a bunch of pathetic whiners u guys are!

Wed 30 Nov 2011 00:20

@FreeEdPeeps @nerdosyndical @masondeese – feeling is mutual. But you have to own your history. I noted anarchists had gotten past terrorism

Wed 30 Nov 2011 00:06

@nerdosyndical @gavinsaywhat @masondeese – and therefore I’m supposed to rewrite the history of the 19th and 20th centuries?

Tue 29 Nov 2011 23:58

@nerdosyndical @masondeese – oh come on the quarrel over the dictatorship of the proletariat goes back to Marx himself versus Bakunin

Tue 29 Nov 2011 23:33

@nerdosyndical @masondeese – anyway when’s the last time a Marxist generalization about anarchists said “with certain exceptions”?

Tue 29 Nov 2011 23:30

@nerdosyndical @masondeese – no you’re not. Sensible people tend to understand there are always exceptions. Not like I said “all Marxists”

Tue 29 Nov 2011 23:26

@eponymousthing @annelyttle – I thought I just said that the world was no longer preparing for a world war

Tue 29 Nov 2011 23:22

@masondeese – I don’t write. It’s just every time u compare Marxism & anarchism yr not obliged to write “with certain exceptions”

Tue 29 Nov 2011 22:53

@eponymousthing @annelyttle – no people just now forget that anti-state Marxists were historically a tiny minority

Tue 29 Nov 2011 22:50

@anarchytweet @annelyttle @eponymousthing – 1914 to 1989 was completely spent either fighting or preparing for world wars

Tue 29 Nov 2011 18:17

@ilSaggiatoreEd – yes – when do you expect the book to come out? I’d be happy to do a tour

Tue 29 Nov 2011 18:17

@markgimein – it’s upsetting; it’s also possible he was talking about a different early start-up; anyway won’t be in the 2nd edition!

Tue 29 Nov 2011 18:16

@markgimein – yeah I know I think Wolff was just kind of wrong about a lot of this; I tried to check with him but he didn’t answer the email

Tue 29 Nov 2011 15:46

@markgimein – the laptops thing was a result of a compression of two sentences, that was silly

Tue 29 Nov 2011 15:19

@markgimein – no I mean Richard Wolff the Marxist economist whose student did a study of the origins of Apple and never published it

Mon 28 Nov 2011 07:01

@Melvin_Udall_ – did you even figure out what the counter-argument was? I don’t think you even got that far. Amazing.

Mon 28 Nov 2011 06:52

@PoliteIre @boutmycolumn – Allow me to officially state I DO NOT approve of the use of my words to sever romantic relations of any kind

@Melvin_Udall_ – I did answer. U made an argument, I offered a refutation, u failed to offer a counter-argument. U lost just didn’t notice

Sun 27 Nov 2011 23:46

@Melvin_Udall_ – u utterly failed to even address my argument that our moral paragons (mlk etc) were inveterate criminals. Sorry. You lose.
