So...

Organic Revolution recommended me here.

I don't know much [well, actually nothing] about any of this stuff really.
so maybe I'll learn a few things while here, or just confuse myself more.
but really, whatever works I guess. See you around~

[Mujer Libre]

Welcome to the board. Hopefully there'll be more learning (and fun!) and less of the confusion. :P

[Kikyo_Cat]

thanks, and yeah I hope so.

but if not I'll just lurk around and post about random things too.

[apathy maybe]

Hey hey and welcome. Things are confusing, my best advice would be to listen and read everything that seems to make sense, ignore the stuff that doesn't make sense and ask questions.

Learning is a great place to start for that.

I think there might be two reason that things may appear to be confusing, one is the use of words, such as anarchy or anarchist, that have a different meaning in "mainstream" usage then what they do in "revolutionary left" usage. The other is the mixing of terminology that some people do (for example, using the term "middle class" as a synonym for "petit-bourgeois".

In both cases, it just takes experience to work out what is going on.

Anyway, hope you stick around, and now for my "trademark", anarchists have more fun :ph34r: :A:. (Surveys support my position too, but I can't be fucked linking to them...)

[Kikyo_Cat]

Yeah thanks, I'll try to stick around abit.

Welcome. The link in my signature suggests what Apathy Maybe is referring to.

Just remember to dismiss everyone else's arguments as "petit-bourgeois nonsense" and you'll sound like you've been part of the left for years.

[apathy maybe]

Jazzratt, that is petit-bourgeois nonsense and you know it!
The correct terms of abuse are, "post modern" (or similar, including "pomo"), "liberal" (or similar) and finally, "Stalinist" (but only rarely).

[Kikyo_Cat]

yeah, I'm already lost.

[luxemburg89]

A good cheat is to go round and look for all the mods and admins and just put 'I Agree, I was about to say the same thing' after their every post :D

Oh and go on opposing ideologies and unleash a torrent of abuse at a bloke called wtfm8lol - he really really likes it when you call him a '****ing twat'.

[Kikyo_Cat]

I dont know anything about this stuff really.

ugh. whatever/
