Still, I'm impressed that Wayne bothers to reply -- I gave up on that a long time ago, as life is too short. And, let us be honest, that sort of thing is boring both in its unoriginality and in its lack of even a basic understanding of the politics involves -- when I want to spend time refuting people who know nothing about anarchism, I turn to Leninists :)<br />
<br />
Anyway, keep up the good work Wayne -- and I'm glad my books have proved helpful!<br />

Thank you for this insight at the current state of events our region of the globe is experiencing. I will be sharing this with comrades here in the Los Angeles metropolitan area. I believe you make excellent points about anarchist's relationship to socialism in a broader context, and not state socialism, which capitalists like to exploit for gains that socialism is evil. Thank you also for pointing out the Sanders's version of democratic socialism mirroring the Nordic regions of the earth in how it takes care of its people or lack thereof. It seems now, including myself as an anarchist that I am, how we like to hear his words about the billionaires and millionaires, who are making inequalities unattainable because of their factual dominate wealth.<br />

I know when the presidential election comes around later this year, I will stay back, and witness how elections for a capitalist democratic-republic pans out where people's vote absolutely doesn't mater in this electoral college. It has happened twice in my life time, and I predict it will happen again. Thank you for sharing Wayne, as I will share your written piece too!Eleganthttp://www.anarkismo.net/article/31755#comment172412022-03-23T00:38:40+08:00Maria AbieThese latter are against the bureaucratic-centralized state but do not object to...These latter are against the bureaucratic-centralized state but do not object to bureaucratic-centralized corporate monopolies
