Done. 2020-08-21T17:46:36Z Comment by Stephen Adams I think China is more command capitalism than market socialism. 2020-06-21T19:38:16Z Comment by Stephen Adams Love how you got a genius on the phone and you talk about birds for 5 minutes. 2020-05-26T18:56:03Z Comment by Wilder Brannon on mad max, the whole setting is still way better off than the bronze age collapse, and depicts humanity still actually surviving and even thriving in those horrible conditions. Sure its a dystopia to us, but the whole post-apocalyptic genre speaks to the fact that human history contains events like that, and for all the horror they led to we still recovered. 2019-09-23T22:23:14Z Comment by gamerunknown *whistles* 2019-05-03T16:21:37Z Comment by gamerunknown hail blithe spirit, bird thou never wirt 2019-05-03T15:09:03Z Comment by Dwayne J.

College grads love this. The US desperately needs working class politics. We already have enough academic Marxism. 2019-03-23T13:34:53Z Comment by Yan-Deriction I was intrigued by your introduction and about to check out his books, but by the end of the interview I've become thoroughly disinterested. re: videogames vs real life, for a fiction author he seems awfully unaware of the advantages of fiction (cost, consequences, fantasy). As for existentialism and making up a meaning of life, completely unnecessary. There are plenty of real reasons to do things. 2019-03-23T05:35:42Z Comment by planet wario defense force @surgeryhead: "slave religion" as opposed to what? hi there nietzsche 2019-03-23T03:14:25Z Comment by Edithean A wonderful conversation. Thank you for this. 2019-03-22T18:11:18Z Comment by Humberto Ramirez 8 what you guys described is Resource Based Economy, but no one is calling it. 2019-03-22T13:05:31Z Comment by Thomas Jones I also think that what is missing here is an understanding from the HIV crises. During that crises 'silence is death' became the motto and it was a real development. You have to tell people you are a socialist to make socialism possible. 2019-03-22T00:47:05Z Comment by ضلاه زنى د سكرفسيه BONUS 2019-03-21T19:19:11Z Comment by Jwayne24 "Elon musk is an interesting guy.
