In my time here, I've been forced to post responses to some of the same questions over and over. I also realize it's not always convinient to do a search before posting. With these two things in mind, I've put together this list of posts on topic frequently brought up here, to better facilitate debate and discussion of them; and in hopes of allowing more new subjects to come up. For some new members, this could also be used as a learning resource. Some questions you have may have already been answered.

"Getting a job, finding a mate, having a place to live, finding a creative outlet. Life is a war of attrition. You have to stay active on all fronts. It's one thing after another. I've tried to control a chaotic universe. And it's a losing battle. But I can't let go. I've tried, but I can't." - Harvey Pekar

It looks very useful and is a good idea. I don't think there are any new ideas for discussion here yet though.

"Frankly if we have a revolution and you stop me eating meat, I'm going to eat you."- The inimitable Skinz.
Be careful, lest the time comes where we have to weigh you against a duck.
Good idea. A couple other recurring topics:
Tibet
Tibet Two
Tibet 3
Iraqi resistance
Iraqi resistance 2
Related: Is Ba'athism at all progressive?
Another Nepal thread - older but in some ways more in-depth

Gun control.
There are dozens of threads regarding that.
We are not afraid of ruins. Workers built the palaces and cities of Spain and America. We can do it again. The bourgeoisie can destroy their world before abandoning history's stage but we have a new world in our hearts......a world that is growing every moment. It's growing while I talk to you.
You only get what you're Organized to take.
CdL I also suggest to post the main threads on FARC struggle, since we keep seeing the same liberal moanings about them being drugdealers, terrorists, etc
"...Standing at a historic point, I will repay with my life the loyalty of the people. And I say to you that I am certain that the seed we have surrendered into the worthy conscience of thousands and thousands of Chileans, will not be able to be reaped at one stroke. They have the power, they can make us their vassals, but not stop the social processes, neither by crime nor by force. History is ours and is made by the people."
Salvador Allende, 9-XI-1973
I did post some threads about FARC. Are there some I'm missing?

Can we add this thread about National Liberation?

What about the 2 or 3 threads about ETA?
I think almost all the links must be edited.They all lead to domain registering site since all links point to revolutionaryleft.com not revleft.com. This must be done with as much haste as possible since some new users will be confused by the redirection.
It is possible to build gigantic factories according to a ready-made Western pattern by bureaucratic command – although, to be sure, at triple the normal cost. But the farther you go, the more the economy runs into the problem of quality, which slips out of the hands of a bureaucracy like a shadow. The Soviet products are as though branded with the gray label of indifference. Under a nationalized economy, quality demands a democracy of producers and consumers, freedom of criticism and initiative – conditions incompatible with a totalitarian regime of fear, lies and flattery.

Done.
The links work again, as Malte has been able to fix the domain problems.

Hate to be annoying, but you spelled Darfur wrong.
You seem neat, but...
They divide us by our color, they divide us by our tongue,
They divide us men and women, they divide us old and young,
But they'll tremble at our voices when they hear these verses sung,
For the Union makes us strong!
Hope you don't mind but I just added some Israel and China threads.
Don't mind at all.

Nut thses events are not frequently discussed same subject but an of different incidents which directly relates not only to the workers's struggle but also the relationship between Islamic Fundamentalism and U.S Imperialism in Afghanistan.
