BDL>>I find it kind of interesting that you are denying the possibility of
collective action--that *your* decisions are in a very real sense
also the decisions of the millions of Americans who think like you
do. I sense a profound anomie: a sense that you are completely cut
off from the rest of society, and so that your decisions are yours
alone, and not part of our collective decision-making process.

JN, how could you deny collective action here in the land of solidarity and
community and carnival? Don't tell us the last 250 years of mythological
individualism and the past 250 of early classical and neoclassical economics
has you brainwashed just like us poor dupes. You should be put in solitary
confinement to heal yourself of such denial ;>


>>Why do people still have to be reminded of it today?

*******

Exactly. Why did thousands upon thousands take to the streets in the last 18
months to tell those who want us to believe in heroic individualism and know
nothing consumerism above all else so we won't be distracted by such petty
issues as Democracy and the ownership of the means of production to fuck
off.
