lol another typo but that one is evident. Any way, what a contrast it is here from Puerto Rico, one that is rightly VERY unbecoming of the US population and wise of Puerto Ricians.!

"""They just view the tyranny, human, and economic rights and oppressions as “THE HUMAN CONDITION” without questioning it further."""

I meant ...human rights violations and economic oppression and "the human condition"... No edit button here I guess.

So are you saying that down in Puerto Rico US COINTELPRO activities are absolutely common knowledge? What a COMPLETE contrast from in the States!!! Here unless you are in a circle of radical leftist’s or maybe some armchair political types, people are completely detached from it all –like true drones. People here have such little clue what they back, when they back the government so on and so on... And do they give a shit – pretty much not! They just view the tyranny, human, and economic rights and oppressions as “THE HUMAN CONDITION” without questioning it further. The shame is that half these people ARE on the side of human rights and even anarchism, but they are just so asleep.

Not sure where else I have seen you around, but I definitely noted that you're easy going, friendly and insightful.... ;-)

Well, real life organizing is pain-staking; what I mean is, you want see too many Hu on revleft any more, because they are pretty burnt out from constantly trying to drive points home, and they are fed up with hypocrisy and liberalism.

I'm still here, but in a recent poll, 80% of the HU stated that they don't go on revleft anymore (50% have complete disdain for it.).

I was in the 20% who still post here (along with Ismail, I believe,) but even my contributions are infrequent. I have become something of a chit-chatizen, because I rarely see anything worth commenting on, just people taking turns denouncing past attempts at building socialism, and the liquidation of all things "revolutionary", with new people (as well as long-time users,), starting threads like "Do we really need classwar"? "Should we support Obama/democrats/socialdems"? "Why was (insert name of socialist state, group or theoretician) such a failure" (Answer: Because (insert name of socialist state, group or theoretician) wasn't really a socialist!)?

It gets fatigueing. thanks for the support though,

It's going; you won't see many of us around revleft anymore, but I browse here and there.

It was great. I had some friends there that showed us a round a lot, introduced us to folk. Definately not your average vacation.
