Why is anyone giving these Zeitgeist people the time of day? They're like the really slow kid in class that you act really nice to and pretend he's just like everyone else, when he really isn't.

Marxist McFly, we don't engage in ableism on this forum. Please abstain from these kinds of analogies in the future.

Mod action: this constitutes a verbal warning to Marxist McFly for discriminatory language.

Even back in these days we were ineffectual. How depressing.

@Crixus

....Is that a portrait of Lincoln in the background?

I had heard that American communists took inspiration from Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Paine, but this is the first time I've seen it explicitly.
