They didnt have jackasses trying to define terms for everyone else; it
was a system built on consensus. And we see them in the postings all
the time, with their own definitions of terms so they can have strawmen.

Its one of the problems going on in Iran right now. Any top down
system, be it fascism, socialism, capitalism, communism, or whatever
is in trouble because the party line can no longer be sold without
being taken apart in venues like this line by line, to see what it
says, and what it fails to say.

Hence libertarian socialism.
That sounds like an oxymoron. Like wanting a big military, but a small
government. Shrinks call it cognitive dissonance.

It doesn't 'sound like' an oxymoron....it is one!


They're still pushing Goldbergs imbecilic claim that Mussolini's
"Ultimate merging of state and corporate power" is liberal. Well,
somebody forgot to tell the Republicans, because that was the meaning
of life for them for the last eight years. Letting corporations run an
extremely militaristic government while letting them set policy, carry
out wars-for-profit, letting them write their own legislation and then
letting them sponge off the taxpayers after they looted the country is
not even distantly related to that capitalism hating liberalism we're
always hearing about and being accused of fostering. It should also be
noted that the same people pushing this line of BS are simultaneously
calling Obama a Marxist. This isn't even worth arguing about. It's
just another piece of right wing driftwood, like "The Holocaust museum
shooter was a liberal" or "Obama is a secret Muslim."
