    True, and yes unfortunately on Marxist theory and commentary. Part of why I'm a disillusioned corporatist if I still count as one and not an outright socialist. What can I say, Marx makes good arguments for economies of scale.

    Mostly, a misguided attachment to libertarianism, and a lack of faith in a successful global proletariat revolution. Thus why in the original comment I clarified "tankie"; the other bit? The American feds. Real Red-scare vibes over here.

    You know, that's a valid question I've been asking myself lately due to the intersection between American Union history and the current state of politics. Frankly, contribute to the local orgs already; so as I said, arguing I'm not under the umbrella isn't strictly valid.

    The other bit being that you can loop folks further left out of the more extreme sections of the evangelical right by presenting yourself as a middle ground. Talk them into reading some libertarian theory, conservative theory, and to read Marx and Engels for comparative analysis. Or at worst, reduce the theory to memes and make them read it by cutting absurd bits. I'm a bit of a dadaism fan if it wasn't obvious.
