What you call red-baiting I
What you call red-baiting I call criticism. If that criticism is unfounded people are welcome to rebut it, and people have in fact done just that. I can appreciate some of your intent with all of your suggestions, Petros, but at the same time I think you need to appreciate that free, liberated people like us don't really like rules and excessive formality. Also, a lot of the values you extol are perfectly good things, but not necessarily right for this site. Some other place, or some other time maybe, but not here and not now. As far as I'm concerned, you mischaracterize this as an online movement. I do most of my moving in person with real people. I talk a little bit about that on this site but for the most part I keep it to myself because that makes it more difficult for the opposition. To mistake this particular facet of the activism of any of the individuals who participate here is simply wrongheaded. This is a fragment of a much larger and more complex campaign that will succeed precisely because it is smart enough--not because it is considerate enough to the visitors to this site. I could go on at length as to the specific tactics and strategies that I employ in struggle but I would be a fool to do so in public or with anyone who I do not know and trust 100%. While you may have plenty of experience with what you call the liberation struggle, I have to say that I'm not overly impressed by anything being accomplished by any such movements or ideologies, including the mainstream left, antiwar groups, etc. The difference between those movements and what I consider myself a part of is that I fully expect and intend to succeed, so that we won't be here 50 years from now bemoaning the same old crap people were bemoaning 100 years ago.
