166 [lbo-talk] Edward Snowden, Enemy of the State -- rank: 380

[WS:] I think it is more type of interaction and discourse than individual temperament, at least in most cases. Not facing your interlocutor but instead talking to a computer screen is certainly dehumanizing and provoking more hostility than in a face to face conversation. But more importantly, I think that ...

168 [lbo-talk] The latest Republican offer is that they will allow the government to reopen, if... -- rank: 380

On a more serious note, what these clowns are doing - in some cases, quite consciously - is further conditioning the American public to accept cuts to Medicare and Social Security as a "compromise" alternative to the more extreme measures they're proposing. The more the politically somnolescent US working class is bombarded ...

169 [lbo-talk] Marx as Essentialist;; contra Foucault -- rank: 380

I see nothing "transphobic" in the post below. Marx's position was that "essential" v. socially constructed" is a bogus dichotomy. There is a fundamental human nature that is modified historically. Our human identity is both given AND constructed, not one or the other. Jim Creegan Contra Foucault, Marx expresses his ...

173 [lbo-talk] More Rightwing proto-fascism -- rank: 380

Aimé Césaire made Wojtek's argument a long time ago, but it seems to me that Wojtek's claim that the Japanese atrocities in China (and, by implication, any number of other imperial genocides) dwarfed the Nazi genocide would be hard to establish. (1) Nazis were world class by any standards ...

174 [lbo-talk] Call for Papers and Participants: URPE Conference on 10/24/09 in Brooklyn, NY -- rank: 380

probly shouldn't get carried away, but i guess sometimes i wonder whether there really are 'radical' analyses and responses (any more than there is, say, 'heterodox' rather than regular (classical or neoclassical) economics. (I know!! we'll have a radical response, called a 'conference', unlike them---it'll be in ...

175 [lbo-talk] Collective idiocy.... -- rank: 380

yeah. you can look it up, easy to find, if you go by *household*. It's typical for the average gun owning household to have at least two. And others to have a couple dozen and more. In just one family, where you hunt, you can have a rifle, shotgun, a ...

179 [lbo-talk] Collective idiocy.... -- rank: 380

Indeed. One thing mentioned in relation to that scatterplot data was that the US was way ahead of the heard in terms of guns per 100 people. But comments here point out that this is per capita, which skews when the issue is that there is more of a culture here ...
