Difficult Questions/Arguments

"Why do you guys support NAMBLA?" Answer: "Because we're fucking weird." <== I answered for the spartacist leagues members.

Umm, what is the purpose of this?

I'm not describing any sort of casual sex, but casual sex-as-a-service. Like I said, the distinction between this sort of casual sex and the more common kind is the same as the distinction between plumbing organised as a service (which would still exist in the communist society, with no monetary compensation of course), and fixing the pipes at a friend's apartment.

I don't think we can predict what people would want in the communist society. Why wouldn't someone want to participate in casual sex as a service?

So basically "casual sex-as-a-service" is a free association brothel.

The most difficult argument put forward to the leftists I've ever seen was: "If there is to be an equality, then there must be an equality in access to sex."

And whatever you'd answer it would be bad. It's just trap of present bourgeois morality...

Actually, this is an opportunity to show that sex, and what is called sex work, is completely exploitative in capitalist society in such a way that wouldn't exist in a communist state of things.

In communism, work is done freely, not under threat. Sex, whether it be considered labor or not, would be the same. Communism is about empowering the worker to control his or her labor. It is not about empowering the consumer against the worker, but only within the context that a worker is a consumer. You don't have a right to someone elses labor unless they consent that their labor should be a shared resource. The current model of work as an onerous existence that consumers or middlemen have to pry from someone is meant to be overturned; it is not just to take the current model of work and share the goods more evenly.

"Why do you hate our freedoms?"

Tough one. I just don't like the color blue. Too much damn blue in the American flag. It should be all red. That's the only reason I'm in this, I don't know about you all.

What personally have been the most difficult arguments/questions put forward to you by Capitalists?

That would be the question whether I would advocate revolution if I were convinced that it would result in massive bloodshed and potentially nuclear warfare.

The person tried to get me on two related fields

1) the morality of such advocacy - the special kind of responsibility for loss of human life and

2) the clarity and effectiveness of my self-interest to survive
