Cat out of Bag
I came out of the shadows this morning on a local radio station and revealed that I was one of the folks behind the hoax I mentioned in the last couple of posts. The DJ was the one who sniffed it out and invited one of the participants on to explain what it was about.
And oh yeah, it was Fun! Makuum apatada or whatever that rodent said! Don't Worry, Be Happy! We put out 8000 glossy fliers announcing a free concert, sponsored by two corporations which just pulled out of town suddenly, leaving 500 Missoula workers high and dry. The DJ was the first to call it a hoax and then invited anyone from the "group" to come in and explain it all to the disgruntled dave mathews fans. We had a website, a phone number in Ohio and a spokesperson named Edwin Rose and the TV station, the newspaper and two radio stations picked it up. Local NPR did an interview with Ed Rose before we were busted.
The Yes Men were a big help on this with advice and contacts, they are the awesome masters and we the humble apprentices.Check out their movie Yes Men Save the WorldThe DJ asked if this really changes anything? Only the Shadow knows. but i do know this : "You got to mess with people!"

Only bad jokes need explaining and your explanations are tedious at their best. But you may claim the title of activist, even if it's just running in circles requiring explanation.
The halfwit and wisdom of Troutsky!
The outplaced workers, should have taken a page out of the book of the Republic Windows workers in Chicago. The union leaders at the World Social Forum, met organizers of Venezuela's occupied factory movement.
In this case you were fooled by someone else. This is a running pattern in your life.
Original thought and communism do not
belong in the same sentence.
you can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time. But Obama can fool all of the people all of the time!
Ouch Yodood! Maybe you should write a poem about it and send it to the Universe.
Ren, I'm going to agree that the occupation at Chi.W and D was a rupture of sorts but only to satisfy modest grievances.And the timing of Bank of America bail-out created a Spectacle they could capitalize on. But the action had little power in terms of actual movement building. what has changed since? The Smurfit-Stone workers are negotiating severance packages but not questioning the logic of the profit system ( yet) Most Macys workers accept their role as collateral damage. Why? I wish it were possible for rank and file to attend 5th International in Caracas.
Beak , who were we fooled by? No comprende.
Kultur, Obama has the gift. I wish I were half as eloquent or my smile was that charismatic. Americans really respond to Leaders despite this professed passion for freedom.
The beat goes on. A string of local Catholic hospitals are experiencing debt and have been sold to a private equity firm.
Now the approval process will take awhile but already there are some stirrings and proposed demonstration. These hospitals serve poor areas and practice charity, values that the private equity firm swears up and down it will uphold.
Let's see, a hospital serving poor neighborhoods and upholding the act of charity seems like a perfect fit with a for profit equity firm. No reason for doubt here. We just need to put our faith in markets rather than the acts of mercy, right Beak.
Beak, you sure Kapital isn't trying to fool us here?
Duncy
I would sooner place my hands in the fate of the people at Wallmart and Proctor & Gamble than anywhere near the those of Marxists.
Marxism = Death
Troutsky
How much would it take for you and Ren to go to Venezuela permanently.
Maybe Fox News can have a telethon to raise funds so that commies leave forever.
Trout,
Maybe I should give up caring about your my-way-or-the-highway bullshit altogether. No poems to a universe that already couldn't care less.
Yodood, Perhaps my ego blinds me to my own intransigence, but it seems to me I've been willing to debate. Yes, I take a few positions and defend them. And yes at times it seems that I am running in circles. That doesn't mean I am a joyless halfwit.
As for activism, what did you do today?
I did not beat my head against a wall and call it helping. The only reason you debate is to prove you are right when virtually everyone has a better approach to their life for themselves than you could possibly suggest for them or attack them for holding.
The hypocritical arrogance of world savers is belied by the fact that the only good change is the one that puts them in charge. You are welcome to pursue that "virtue" without my critique from afar from here on out.
I will continue to learn what it is to live outside your beloved rat race and to study the plight of mankind under the almost universal delusion that humans are the special recipient of our creator's creation as its aggressive exploiter whether they are religious or just living in a monotheistic society.
Yodood,
Then good riddance! Goodbye! If you don't care and you find what activists do so pointless, why waste any of your precious breath here pointing it out? Do you secretly care and that's why you hang around? If not, kindly fuck off and crawl back into your hole...or get off the fucking fence you fucking pussy and get into the fight!
Come on Yodood, we all need a little vision of utopia. You lose your soul otherwise.
Who wants to be an thoughtless consumer engine like Beak?
Ah, yes. Here comes Troutsky's hit man with the macho mouth. Attack the person if he doesn't agree with you. No wonder you two keep going in circles. One to cajole, the other to threaten — good collectivist, bad collectivist, both named after heroes that knew a hell of a lot more about what they were doing than you wanna be rulers.
Duncy
Your utopia has created millions of deaths with not one tangible benefit nother than killing your fellow commies.
Che Sponge Bob
Have you finnished brainwashing kids.Are you going to form a Che Sponge Bob Youth Brigade. Commies and Nazis like to brainwash them when they are young and stupid. In Troutsky's case he is always one out of two.
Are you still the lackey of the Narco terrorist crack addict from CaracASS or have you gone back to
worshiping KIm Jong Mentally Ill.
Yodood
Che Bob is a fool. A real hitman
does not spend his days brainwashing children. Che Bob is a lazy Bolshevik worm. Like most commies he is only brave when the masses are starved and disarmed.
The real Che had a nice sexual predator ( Probably Ren's idol) Herman Marks do his dirty work. Che is a lazy clown mendicant who
gets subsidized travel from brutal
narco terrorist states and is not
capable of living the life he advocates for others. In short he is a BS Bolshevik.
When are you going to join the drug addict commie fool? Do you require a step by step guide to
denaturalize yourself.
If the American people ever revolt
you will not get the revolution you planned. You might get lucky
if they tar and feathered commies
before packing them in crates to be sent off to North Korea. North Korea is a suitable place for our
human garbage.
There is no such thing as human garbage you pointy headed racist dim wit.
LWB
There definitely is human garbage and you are a walking example. Persons politically as diverse as Sonia, Craig Bardo, Jams O'Donnel and Eric "the commie" Fink have objected to your Neonazi writings. Your site is frequently cited by the folks at Stormfront.
However, Commies pretend that Nazis like yourself are their polar
opposites. Your presence here proves my point that actual Nazis are quite welcome on Communist blogs.
I stand by the comments about Nazis and Communists being human refuse. Continued advocacy of policies that have been proven genocidal does qualify one as human
refuse.
The perfect place to deposit communists is in North Korea. They
can live the lives they advocate for others.
Speaking of which has Ren applied for a position as Kappo in your Concentration Camp. Survivors frequently pointed out that they were frequently Criminals or Commies who blamed religious folks for their predicament.
