Grunt
31st May 2008, 19:24
Hello,
I am a bit nervous. This is my first post here. RevLeft was
recommended to me by a fellow from another leftist-board.
I didn't like that board (SE). It didn't suit me at all.
I am living in Sweden. I am a genuine Punk. (Right now
I have a very cool pink mohawk...:D ).
I am also a boxer (amateur) and work out 6 days a week.
Politically I consider myself an Anarcho-Socialist
or something like that...
But I am by no means a Stalinist or Maoist - and neither a
person who 100% believes in so called 'scientific' marxism.
Yes: I read Marx's "Das Kapital - Band 1" and quite many
of Trotzky's books. So I guess I am close to being a
Trotzkyist and an Anarchist (if thats possible).
On the anarchist side: I read a little Bakunin, but mostly
Alexander Berkman.
I know what street-fighting is and can handle myself.
(Black Bloc and stuff).
I chose the username 'Grunt' (which originally is military
slang for the common infantry soldier in the US Marine
Corps).
I chose that name - because thats basicly what I am:
A 'footsoldier', expendable and doing the dirty work.
No, no: Of course I am not a real marine, nor a
professional soldier. Nor do I want to be one.
But there is an old saying:
"Grunt's do all the fighting."

Now I must go and learn all the rules that apply here.
Thanks for letting me be part of the board ! :)
If any of you guys has some recommendations which forums
to check out first, or other important info - please let me
know !
