Because you've pounded this one into the dirt, and it's gotten rather tedious. It doesn't have much to do with ideas - it's political psychopathology.

I find it fascinating how some people find the need to kick Empire around on an almost daily basis. If you really thought it was so worthless, you could leave it alone. It's like the dinosaurs' old obsession with postmodernism, except directed against people who call themselves communists, which is even more perverse. Not that there's anything wrong with perversion.
