[lbo-talk] "Theory's Empire," an anti-"Theory" anthology

[shag]

oh please Jerry. you're being a pedant, that characteristic of
intellectuals you seem to despise so much. you've already noted that there
are different definitions of and uses of the word, "theory." Meanwhile,
both Carrol Cox and I have called you on it, and you've studiously avoided
the issue -- just like you avoided dealing with you own caveat of some
posts back.

Now, since the issue is the kind of theory propounded by the "pomos" let's
get off the bullshit and simply deal with the way people, here, are using
the term.

That, or shut up shuttin' up already since you're being a ridiculous
fuckheaded bore who, as usual, has too much time on his hand such that I'm
surprised the freakin' axe blade on your favorite axe hasn't been worn to
a freakin' nub.
