New to download: "Why do people come here from all over the world?" MP3 file attached here (go to http://bobavakian.net/ for more from this one-of-a-kind leader). Listen to this 18 minute clip from Revolution: Why It's Necessary, Why It's Possible and What It's All About, posted 3/24/06, with permission from http://threeqvideo.com/.

I will gladly read this critique you've posted and get back to you on it (send me your email if you want).

However, why don't you listen to the file I posted and comment on that? Instead of some unrelated attempt to discredit the author, why don't you make some concrete analysis of what he's saying and speak to whether it's true or not, what your disagreements are, etc.

I agree with Bob’s points and his arguments against the evils of capitalism 100% - I just disagree with his proposed solution 100%

I like his speeches and enjoy his sense of humor. He has great knowledge of the history of imperialism and lays it out clearly for all to see and understand. His comments on the history of the Congo are all very good.

But he should look at the history of one party states with a centralized economy with the same clarity that he looks at capitalism. He should turn the same wit and wisdom about the history of the Congo toward the history of the USSR and the Gang of 4 in China. That would be interesting.

Marx did say the eventual evolution would be the dissipation of the state.

“All that’s solid melts into air”

How cute.

You have an anarchist critique of Marxism, and it was soooooo important to put forward that you FORGOT that the point here and now is to unite people so that other, REAL, LIVING PEOPLE, aren't rounded up en masse, put in camps,deported, and hunted by police and minutemen.

Well, I have a critique of Marxism, too.

But it doesn't outweigh my enagagement with real people who really care about real shit, and it's not JUST some intellectual posture.

So, get with us, defend the immigrants NOW and do everything you can to promote analyses that will lead people to resist.

REALLY RESIST.
