Phat asks: Sadly, yes. You are free to be that way and I won't try to change you.

way back in the Carter Administration I wrote this limerick:M.Begin and Anwar Sadat
Examined Camp David a lot.
. . Away from the sands

And agreed that they'd shot their last shot.if only Hamas and Netanyahu would stop....

i'm not sure about this. seems no names are mentioned with this brush. Mark Rudd? Tom Hayden? Jane Fonda? Jerry Rubin? Abby Hoffman?who are these "same people"?

there is a tendency to lump people by the period they lived in, but i think that the protest generation was a small minority of the Boomers. most people were not interested and instead became the greedy economic assholes we see today. some 40% of the eligible voters wont even bother to vote.. some 30%-40% of the eligible voters will still vote for Trump - a number the Abby Hoffmans and Tom Haydens of yesteryear would have loved to love to have seen on their side. the bell-shaped curve extends way over on both sides and the bad guys are still a horrible force.

Actually it was i who brought his name up. See Message 321.Yes, he later became an asshole. And Eldridge Cleaver as well - they kind of fell off the bus.

Those drawbacks have a long way to go to even be in the same galaxy as the drawbacks of Fascism. Marxism has never been implemented anywhere without immediate corruption by Fascists. Besides, it isn't Marxism you spit on - it's Socialism.
