Hey,

Me name's Kaelin, I live in England, surprisingly (Yorkshire) and I'm not too sure where I fit in in terms of a name for my views. If I state my views would u kindly reply with a few terms I could use to describe myself politically? Cheers. I believe in free speech, free will and the rights for anyone regardless of sexuality, gender, race etc. I inherently reject any and all authority and believe that everything should be held in common, with no dictator, just everyone ruling in groups by themselves. I also in particular care for the environment and am particularly for the rights of women and gay/lesbian/bisexual people.

By that information, i would say you're an anarchist, specifically (most likely anyway) an anarcho-communist.

Welcome to the board comrade :)

Could we please stop using anarchist and communist using as if they are mutually exclusive. Especially since we have a large anarchist community here. Rather just say marxist or anarchist.

Oh btw, before I forget: welcome to the board!

I also agree with him. I am starting to see myself as an Anarchist, especially over the last year.

Some form of Anarchism, or possibly Left or Council Communism.

Yeah, you look like an anarcho-communist. Do a google search for the anarchist FAQ 1.3

Someone clean up this idiots homophobic post.

But I&#39;m not sure if he&#39;d be classified an anarcho-syndicalist at all, I see little to lead me to that conclusion.

Also, about the free speech, etc. for "everyone," you understand that you&#39;re including Nazis and the bourgeoisie right?

How was it homophobic (it&#39;s a charicature of a charicature people&#33;)? It sounded in jest (ie. deliberately over the top) to me and besides, it (the picture) was damn funny&#33; :lol:

How was it homophobic?

On several levels.

First of all for using gay as an insult/"joke", second of all for using stereotypical images of homosexuality, and thirdly for implying that homosexuality was a derogotory state of being comparable to "liberal swine".


it was damn funny&#33;

Really?

What if he had made a racial "joke" instead of a homphobic one?

"you are a liberal swine and most likely black" (followed by a demeaning caricature of African-Americans)

Tell me, do you still find that funny?

OK, I am not getting into a debate with a "revolutionary" over political correctness - maybe Rasta Sapien is homophobic but I doubt it - he seemed to purposefully go over the top, putting a bunch of dancing poodles together isn&#39;t going to actually offend homosexuals is it? If someone did a bunch of leprachaun&#39;s called &#39;Paddy&#39; falling over drunk I would laugh at the stupidity, not get my knickers in a twist

I was laughing at the picture ya cheeky blurt&#33;

First off, Rasta Sapien has a long history of homophobia here, so this is just the final straw, he is now restricted pending further action.

We have a zero tolerance policy towards homophobia, sexism and racism here.

He will most likely be banned now, I know I certainly will vote for that.

Second, this was doubly offensive, as it was an attack on a new member and thus tarnishes this site even more.

I didn&#39;t know this and I said as much in my original post.

Do I get a vote as well?

I believe over the top PC-ness also tarnishes this site

Anyway, HELLO Kaelin&#33; Welcome to Revleft, post much & prosper&#33;

I&#39;d say either communist or anarchist, depending on your view on a revolution, as someone else already stated (which means I&#39;m actually just repeating someone elses opinion <_< ) Welcome anyway

Oh, and you&#39;d better remove your last name from your post (safety reasons)
