I can't think of any strikes I didn't welcome. As bad as the UAW is, I'm always happy to see them strike,a nd I even pay them dues. I like most actions that fuck things up. But I don't like exaggerating things either. The LA riots were not an "uprising," as some lefties like to say. They had no political content. The Hyundai workers were on strike, and you always support workers on strike, but they weren't the avant garde of revolution.
I think the Spice Girls are terrible though, and Catherine Driscoll was absolutely maddening on the subject on BS. I see nothing feminist about them.

There's no diff at all. It's all in the words; the signature's an afterthought.
