:lol: codarac, I'm not one of the sectarians who use the labels 'Marxist' and 'Trotskyist' like the Socialist Party or the TUSC and how many seats is that 500k spread over? the point is that you have to win the seat , parliament is a constituent assembly, it's not a question of first past the post -... |

Having not been to WP for a while i thought i'd return briefly just to point out that the racist British National Party absolutely tanked at the polls, didn't win a single seat, their leader Nick Griffin finished a distant third in his constituency and they lost a shed load of local council seats.

Too many things have changed in my life recently....I tried to put up a good front about it for a awhile,... |

I am curious as more workers are replaced by robots who don't get paid and who have no purchasing power who will have the money to buy what the robots produce? It would be unbelievaby short sighted to do this under capitalism, profits would drop dramatically and there would be shorter periods betwe... |

Titus, you've been upholding completely ridiculous stances. You've been defending the Red Terror and the Jacobin Reign of Terror (which, you should note, occurred mostly after the execution of Louis XIV). You've been excusing unambiguously totalitarian measures with claims that they were necessary,... |

amen to that!
I'm not entirely up on the anti-gay marriage debate but if that is the line of argument taken (equating a man marrying another man with a man marrying an animal) then it is probably one o the more homophobic things i've heard |

Yeah, real mature. Look, you're objectively wrong, but you're too stubborn to admit it, and you are completely incapable of viewing the events outside of your dogmatic Trotskyist perspective. You can worship the Cult of Lenin if you like, but don't expect me or anyone else to take you seriously whe... |

Quote: Titus, it is clear that you are incapable of taking an objective look at Soviet history. You are merely repeating Marxist propaganda, and it would be futile for me to attempt to reason with you further.

Titus, I'm a history major focusing primarily on Russian/Soviet history, I promise you my facts are correct. Orwell, I know that already, am I supposed to be impressed into silence? Perhaps this is your varient of Shock and Awe? They could have intervened on the side of the German revolution, for i... |

Quote: Also, fascism is not necessarily opposed to equality. Egalitarian forms of fascism did (and do) exist. Indeed, Mussolini and Hitler both got their starts in the political world as socialists.

Good evening Orwell. I'm sorry I missed your initial sarcasm. Unortunately I may have a cognitive disorder which impacts particularly on my understanding of social situations and human interaction. Hence I failed to detect your sarcasm. This 'disorder' is known as "Asperger's Syndrome" or Higher Fun... |
