"Utopian Anarchist Party, " this Bill White character in the D.C. 'burbs, is getting wackier and creepier, the more I find. Wingnut? This guy is the Wingnut Maximus.

Comments: Bill's commentary on the left-right ideological synthesis exemplified by the Buchanan-Fulani alliance may be among his best yet. A new ideological current is indeed developing however I believe that Buchanan-Fulani represent this current in its embryonic stage only. Essentially, "First World" countries like the U.S. are now in the position that the "Third World" found itself in during the twentieth century-an exploited working class under attack by both local elites and more powerful international elites. Previously, this involved the relationship between Third World workers,their puppet rulers and the American and/or Soviet empires that dominated their nation,elites and workers alike. For this reason, Third World revolutionaries typically developed "national liberation" ideologies, combining both nationalism and socialism. Now that the New World Odor of international corporatism has sought to reduce the eventual status of first world workers to that of their counterparts in the third world, it is only appropriate that first world revolutionaries should develop a nationalist/socialist ideology of liberation from the international empire of the globalists. Buchanan/Fulani represent the first stage in this development. We should be grateful because they are paving the way for a genuinely revolutionary movement somewhere down the line. They are the seed but not the tree.Both carry too much ideological baggage from archaic ideologies of the past in order to be true visionaries for the future. Buchanan is, to some degree, stuck in the psychology of the pre-capitalist feudal order. The "Old Order" concepts of theocracy,patriarchy,paternalism are things that he cannot let go of psychologically. Also, as a former White House insider and media personality, he cannot entirely buy out of the system's way of thinking. Likewise, Fulani carries with her the archaic ideology of Marxism- Leninism and cannot fully embrace the individualism and anti-statism that is implicit in American culture. Therefore, both of them can only go so far in putting up a united fighting front against the contemporary enemy of the working class-the globalist,corporatist New World Order. This does not mean that we should support them any less. On the contrary, we should do what Bill is doing-offer maximum support. If we want to see a seed grow into a tree we need to be willing to try to help with water and fertilizer. However, while Buchanan-Fulani may provide the seeds the fertilizer will have to be provided by those lacking the ideological and psychological baggage that bring bring with them. Instead, we will eventually need fresh blood and fresh faces unencumbered by archaic concepts like religion, Marxism,race,narrow nationalism,old order moralism,and the like. We will need a straightfoward ruthless,anti- globalist, anti-statist, anti-bourgeoise,radical individualist class struggle for the self-determination of all cultures and nationalities. America, as the world's leading nation, will have to be at the forefront of this struggle. It is ridiculous to talk about liberation of Mexican workers without the liberation of American workers.Essentially, it is the nineteenth century all over again. The international class war is about to heat up. Friday April 14th 2000 05:24:58
