That the institution of the state serves only to facilitate the bourgeisie's controll over the ability to controll the means of production and distribution leaving us out in the cold. Despite the fact that this is taking money away from one robber barron to another this only serves as a detriment to the working class because it continues to institutionalize money-grubbing. We need to do away with patents, the state, and capitalism.
I have an iBook G4 12" which I bought in October, got the 29th, dropped the 30th, and took me until the 32 to make it boot again. However, I have no more problems and it's been rather resiliant, going back to Ireland with me, getting treated not too particularly well, tho not being blatantly abused either, and then back to America. where I've turned it off once since the 30 of December. I have not noticed any backlighting problems, or in fact, any problems at all.
it's fairly inconvienienet for a big ol' 6'4", 300lb (plump but muscular, like one Spicy McHaggis), to attempt intercourse with chicks under height of 5'7".
I refer you to my parent organization, the Irish Republican Socialist Party's website http://www.irsm.org/ . Republican means supporting a Republic. the IRA's charter states it's goal as creating an 32-county Socialist Worker's Republic. It has nothing to do with the GOP. Honestly, I just hate government and business, favour agrarian economy, et cetera. My hero's are James Connolly, Che Guevara, Patrick Henry, and the 1981 Long Kesh hunger strikers.
I also hate video games. However, I don't blame games for people shooting up schools, just as I don't blame guns for deaths. People are just stupid. This hippie liberal feel-good pot culture left over from the 60s that guides the generation in charge these days is really to blame. I blame parents for not raising their children. I may be a communist, but i sure as hell no fucking liberal democrat clinton-licking jackass who throws responsibility onto everyone but myself. It is time parents take responsibility. Senseless violence is just that: senseless. However, as John Adams put it: "Free men own guns." "gun culture" does not exist. there is no such thing as a "gun nut" only people who love freedom and those that love uniformity. To quote the great Irish-American band Black 47: "Everytime anyone upsets the status quo they're stabed in the back by the so-called liberal hos." I am a hard-core Irish Republican. I pitty the families of those who die but I don't regret the killing. Video games did not make me this way. I've never killed anyone in my life. I own guns and shoot and would often rather like to kill a number of people that i've had the missfortune in meeting in this god-forsaken America, but I havn't. Why? it's not worth it. that, and I know right from wrong. I'd have to plea nolo contendre. But yes, I know right from wrong: Killing colonial aggressors: valid; killing some quisling who pisses me off: not valid (unless in blatant self defence or defence of others). Therefor, a game like Metal of Honour about killing Nazis is valid, but a game about killing people on the street for money is pointless. That doesn't mean that it is not entertaining, just that if someone acts out what they see in a video game then they have more issues than the game to begin with. However, a few dead kids is no reason to take away freedom. Neither is "September 11" a valid reason for the PATRIOT Act or any other legislation which has turned this country into East Germany and made me absolutly certain that Anglos anywhere are no-good and can't be trusted to run things. That said, I am moving back to Ireland in a year or so to persue a career as a craft brewer in Dingle.
in my case, i really am more likely to be in the 2nd situation. the government should just fuck out of my and everyone else's life. seriously. they constantly exceed any reasonable interpretation of the constitution. therefor they should be eliminated at whatever cost.
what happens if your palm/cell break, or you lose them, et cetera? don't dis analog. it's an "always on," "hot swapable," "fault-tolerant," "redunant" back-up solution. perhaps you can use it to store buzwords.
no -- just like meteorology, economics are evil. and just like weathermen, economists controll the misfortune of all. therefor they should be executed by the people's army.
like James Connolly, who was pro small farmer and small business? that is the way to go, because then the worker is in charge of the means of production. As was mentioned earlier, Anarcho-Syndaclism or whatever that word is, where there is little or no state and the trade unions/guilds are federated to controll the economy, is a rather efficant means of enacting socialism. As I put in another post in this thread, my plan of government is pretty weird. I don't expect it to work like that, honestly. In fact, i'd be a little pissed if everyone bought into it (no one ever takes me seriously because i exist in the joint between radical and reactionary, if the politcal spectrum was curved into a circle and solderd). Most of it I do believe is absolutly necessary, but as I do NOT want a dictatorship to evolve, let alone a dictatorship by me (i'd probably eliminate England, Russia, Turkey, Iraq, India, Pakistan, and parts of Spain to facilitate Peoples' Independence movements). The danger of Utopians is theorizing what kind of government will be formed. Idealy, there is none. However, the form of the dictatorship of the proletariet needs to be tailored to the situation. The goal, however, is merely to eliminate the concentration of wealth and power. Microsoft has amabssedors to other countries and a higher GDP than most of them, while there are people who can't make rent this month. Fuck them. Capitalism is an inherrintly evil thing. Economics are inherrently evil. things should be made for use, and given to who can use them. Exactly like GNU.
yes. exactly. but still relevant. actually, i have never seen that movie. my da told me about it ages ago, but i never got around to watching it. (personally, i find the idea of war reparations counter-productive: war is for plundering).
When the population is kept armed, the proffessional army is totally eliminated, no one can grab power. Getting Americans to do anything together is like herding cats. In my plan for government, the country will be devided into provinces, each one with their own provincal govt. the national parliament will be made up of reps from the provinces, thus fascilitating single transferable votes, multiple constituancies, and small parties. the prime ministery will be rotated among provinces each general election. which ever province is not holding the prime ministery will nominate candidates for each other ministerial position. Thus the power-balance will be kept in check by party and regional animosity, virtually preventing any legislation. a fully armed citizen's militia is the 2nd check: someone can't take advantge of decentrilization as an excuse to pull a Caesar, unless they have a substantial majority of the people supporting them (and then, hopefully, the better fighters). Of course, this is merely the interum before true communism: a stateless, corporationless, boundryless society. there will be no profit motivation, sure. but "work" is not the only way to bennefit society, after all, goods cannot be taken with you. Art/literature, Love/friendship, and freedom are what matters. When you no longer have the class of wealth controlling the lives of the many, forcing us to worry about the little things (how the fuck do they get off charging for water and tampons and shit?), the bigger picture will come more into focus, like stepping back from a Monet. worrying about cars and shit will be irrelvant. People like cars. people will continue to make them. They'll likely become more stylish and interesting, not to mention better built, like the 1950s models again. As long as there is a need for stuff, people will continue to produce it, if not out of altruism, for their own sake. they may as well make more for people that they intend to reap rewards off of as well (farmer joe, mechanic bruce, brewer seamus).
i said no 'profit motive'; clearly part of the 'dictatorship of the proletariate' phase would require killing everyone who has ever had a seriouse thought involving Visual * and thus thinning the heard to only people dedicated to science. Perhaps making posession of developer tools illegal without a degree in math, physics, or engineering.
Dictatorship of the proletariat is the median step in the Socialist state. It is not Communism. Communism is functional anarchy. I am in favour of Anarch-Syndicalism, which does have the added benefit of being unknown and thus free from the stigma of the Leninist/Maoist authoritarian, state-capitalist doctrine that is commonly associated with socialism/communism.
The communist states were hijacked by the false doctrine of Leninism. They never implimented the "dictatorship of the proletariate," rather the dictatorship of the revolutionary elite, ie, "the party." This is not Communism, this is the cancer of state-controlled capitalism. You being a programmer, more than likly, have no right to call the working man in the factory 'too lazy to make a good living' as you don't actually/do/ anything but sit on your ass,l hit some keys, and read slashdot. I quit writing code ages ago. I write plays, poetry, and stories, run the ASRP, advocate Irish Unity Independence, and work in a bar, and go to school. And you know what? I'd rather stand up and fight with the working man in Detroit being exploited to the point of physical damage than make $100,000 a year slapping keys and putting mathamatical operators together to help make people even lazier. I am NOT for "welfare" in its common incarnation, ie free rides for the crack whores.
There is no karma in being funny. i am trying to get back all the karma i lost for making anti-british, pro-ira statements so tha i can get my automatic +1 back and feel good about myself. I AM NOT JOKING GODDAMNIT!!!
This is not meant as a joke. I am Chairman of the American Republican Socialist Party, a member of the Irish Republican Socialist Party, the Irish Republican Socialist Committees of North America, a supporter of the Scottish Socialist Republican Party, the INLA, FARC-EP, ETS, and a venomous anti-capitalist. Communism for ever. Don't prop up free software if you're not going to prop up Communism. GNU is the proof that Marx was right.

yeah, we Paddies are easily predictable like that.
yeah, too bad it's slashdot. i'm lucky to have the one. Especially here -- rather hard to come by another Paddy in this part of Virginia these days.

Step 1: create weapons of mass destruction
Step 2: declare war on USA
Step 3: Collect war repartations
Step 4: Profit!!!

yes, i moved it and then my ARSP page was forced down for sedition. I'll fix it later so.
