Hello. I'm just giving my greetings to the forum. I'm an atheist and an anarchist living in Waco, Texas, one of the most religious and conservative areas in the United States. I like classical music, protest-folk and early 90s hip-hop. I can't dance, due to my unavoidable whiteness. I will hopefully be heading off to grad school in a few months to begin working on my PhD in Political Science, and leave this hellish place.
I would like to help contribute to the reclamation of a liberating anti-authoritarian politics. I dislike the consequences of angry teenagers who wear circle-A patches and don't bathe (by choice, rather than because of necessity) calling themselves anarchists while buying their black fatigues from Hot Topic (which is owned by the Gap).
I hope to be this guy in 60 years:

Hi Welcome :)
Hot Topic (which is owned by the Gap).
I didn't know that. Yeah, I hate those posers. :angry:
I remember back in Puerto Rico this pseudo-"rrrevolutionary" who was a big joke and was of course wearing Hot Topic gear. (Now every time I come back to PR I'm like the most revolutionary guy ever :P :D; at least compared to my peers.)

Welcome! You know posers? well there's this kid in my school who writes "Anarchy again" all over the walls. This wouldn't be to bad if he actually knew what anarchy was.

I am wearing hot topic pants right now myself, i dont see how that is any less or more revolutionary then the clothes you or probably anyone could wear since shoping habits have never brought down any system as far as my history understanding goes.

Of course shopping habits don't bring down capitalism; the deal is that this person I refer to probably believed that wearing certain set of clothes made him more revolutionary.

I was once a fool. Infact, it wasn't to long ago. I would say that it was sometime in september or october, that I was miserable christian, trying to become a socialist. As you would have imagined, that didn't work out to well on the forums. This was a necessary experience though, because it started me on the path to freedom. I had always been logically skeptical of the concept of god, but the indoctrination of fear had kept me from being loose. But I started seriously examing it, and with the help of the internet, I became aware that I had believed a big scam for 25 years of my life. Sad shit.
It's get more interesting though. As I was attending school at the time, and become more cynical of humanity each day, I happened to come along a marvelous work of fiction. This book, "Atlas Shrugged", by Ayn Rand(who I didn't know here conservative views at the time) had nearly convinced me that socialism could never work. With that, I set out to look out for "number one". As time went on, I seen that it was not in me to be insensitive to the suffering of others, and to forsake any chance of ever acheiving a socialist system. I view socialism and anarchism, as the only way to bring about some sort of hope for the future. Not only for own interests, but for the interests of others, so that we wouldn't be at each others throat, because we to cowardly to face the perpetraytor of our disposition.
I wan't to know Marxism thoroughly, and all literature that works towards true freedom. I also am about action, and I do not plan to be on websites forever with no progress. So if their are any real revolutionaries out there, then feel to enlighten me on anything I might not grasp, and for real action.
