Would Party members please resume posting on the WSM Forum. Not in reply to McTet but on some other issues (ANY other issues would do). I’ve tried to get discussions going, but without success. I wonder how many non-members are still bothering to look at the forum, given how boring it’s become.
Perhaps it only appears “boring” precisely because of the non participation of members in the debates going on. Its a self fulfillling prophecy, in other words.
Strewth, I can’t understand you guys sometimes. The anarcho cap arguments are piss poor and feeble and you are complaining about them hogging the discussion when you have more than ample opportunity to floor them,again and again and again, with scintillating, incisive and above all very interesting socialist arguments that will demonstrate conclusively to each and all the superiority of the socialist case. And yet here you are turning down such a heaven sent oppportunity! Nope, I just dont geddit at all.
Cmon guys – get in there and do the job! Stop complaining and taking on this plaintive “passive -reactive” role, As an experiment why not just try taking on one or two of their claims in bited sized fashion. Bill has produced some brilliant short snappy posts – like his example of the Incas refuting the claim that a large scale societies cannot exist without money. This is the sort of stuff that any curious onlooker would appreciate and doubtless the contrast with the waffle offered up by our free marketeers would not be lost on them
