im new on this forum (obviously)
well im 17 years old and live in Wisconsin, USA and i think it sucks here.

i just recently read JLA's Che Guevera, A Revolutionary Life and have started studying marxism and the sort. I have been reading things on this forum every day for the past i dont know how long. Its great inspiration.

anyway enough of that back to this topic
heres a site i discovered a little while ago that has me entranced. What do you guys think of this? Comments on Marx Vs Bakunin?

I pointed out my issues with the AFAQ a bit back. As I pointed out then, and will do so again, they bring up the feud between Marx and Bakunin, and point out that much of the assertions against one another (by both sides) were drastically overblown -- then they go on to do the same exact thing. The flow of the writing itself attempts to imply that Marxism and Leninism are in effect calling for the same. While Marx may consider the state necessary under socialism, with realistic reasons for doing so, to consider what Marx proposed to ever take the form of the USSR is, frankly, bullshit.
