14 To this end, we now make our first clear demand of Google. We demand that Google give three billion dollars to an anarchist organization of our choosing. This money will then be used to create autonomous, anti-capitalist, and anti-racist communities throughout the Bay Area and Northern California. In these communities, whether in San Francisco or in the woods, no one will ever have to pay rent and housing will be free. With this three billion from Google, we will solve the housing crisis in the Bay Area and prove to the world that an anarchist world is not only possible but in fact irrepressible. If given the chance, most humans will pursue a course towards increased freedom and greater liberty. As it stands, only people like Kevin Rose are given the opportunity to reshape their world, and look at what they do with those opportunities.

These people are idiots. They really do not understand what "anarchist" means, do they? They seem to think it's just a new, trendy way of saying "communist."

72 Look, this is easy to explain. The actual article was about cow tipping. But as it just so happens, when the article author googled "cow tipping", google came back with, "did you mean 'car tipping?' That's how all of this confusion started and ergo, the google backlash. I'm the (by popular consensus - me) 'splainer of things that need 'splaining.' No thanks are needed. It's what I do.

147 It would be interesting to see what happens to the Left if the strict hierarchy they enforce breaks down.

If you look at the goals and motivations of the various groups that make up the left they *should* be fighting against each other instead of working together.

Consider

Feminists vs Islamists
Unions vs Environmentalists
Tech Sector capitalists vs Government Technocrats
etc...

They currently stick together because they the leadership of each faction profits, personally, from their alliance, but collectively some factions do substantially better then others.

223 Ooops, that was me causing the ruckus, with my typo-filled comment. Ace, it was your fault for updating the post with my comment in the first place! Ed Driscoll did cite your post -- he just cited the parts written by other people. If you had wisely left the comments languishing in comment-thread obscurity, he may very well have cited your part. This will teach you to not to be so kind and generous with your commenters. You're like the bandleader who lets the new kid at the back of the saxophone section have a little solo halfway through "Hockeysuckle Rose" -- next thing you know the audience jumps up and cheers and a couple weeks later the kid is leading his own combo and within a year he steals your slot at Carnegie Hall. Do not let him have that solo.

Do not let him have that solo.
