Griff, that tells me you don't know communists -- nor are you very good on totalitarians, if you honestly (I don't think it's honest) believe that about me. (Libertarians are supposed to be about the freedom to have differences of opinion, and I take an internationalist, not an isolationist, view of libertarianism, small L or big L.) What gave me the first clue about tw was what he said about Vietnam -- it was pure-quill Red. Read his postings elsewhere: they follow Communist themes diligently. Look who he invokes for boogeymen, look at his attitudes about US resistance to Communist machinations anywhere and everywhere this was done. Not knowing his parentage, I couldn't say for sure if I should call tw a red-diaper baby, but he sure is dyed in the wool. My argument stands, on the evidence; yours falls for the same reason. Go ye and look. Why is tw so regular-issue communistically snotty about Augusto Pinochet? For the sin, in communist eyes, of having supplanted their boy Allende. Unforgiveable, no? The commies shrieked to the skies about it for seventeen years, about weekly, in about every language at their command -- bored hell out of the rest of the planet, too, but Marxist speechifying has a way of glazing eyes over anyway. It's like listening to the preaching of a bad religion, which it should be, as that's what Communism is.
