Anarcho-capitalist crit.

Re: anarcho-capitalist critique. I still appreciate your concerns about that page, but unfortunately, I'm not in a position right now to help with it much. For one thing, I don't really know very much about the subject, because I've never been very interested in left-anarchist theory. I'll keep my eyes open in case I see some good source material in the future. - Nat Krause 15:07, 5 May 2004 (UTC)

Capitalization of god

Just dropping a note to let you know that I agree with you completely about the capitalization of god/God, but that you should probably expect a mighty battle to erupt over the issue. I've gone through it before myself - see Talk:Atheism/Archive 5 and Talk:Atheism/Godvrs.god_poll in particular. :) Bryan 19:24, 28 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Grindcore

Unfortunately I know very little about the technicalities of music and even less about categorisations. I certainly would not class the Banana as Grindcore looking at the definition but then again I shrink from categories generally. I doubt I'll doubt I'll be much help on the music articles but at least my tapir has flown away. MeltBanana 20:39, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Anarcho-capitalist critique of left-anarchism

Hi, I would appreciate if you could check this article's talk page again. It seems it has been ignored since may, and no real changes have been made to it. It's still just as horrible a page, and I still don't think it even deserves to be here. Maybe merging with the main article on "anarcho"-capitalism would be better, in a more NPOV form of course, but this rant at Anarcho-capitalist critique of left-anarchism needs to be deleted.--Che y Marijuana 03:28, Nov 18, 2004 (UTC)

I have listed it up for VfD. Thanks for responding--Che y Marijuana 08:48, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC)

In response to your question

In your edit summary reverting the latest trolling on the anarchism page you asked "what was that?" The answer is that it was Hogeye, attempting to use the anonymous service "Kaxy.com" to get around his recent ban. Kev 05:13, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

Initiation of Force essay

Yep, that was me. The essay wasn't actually ready for public consumption, but the individual who posted it seemed to like it so much at the time that I said it would be fine for him to distribute as he saw fit. If I was to revisit it today I would make a few minor changes in the breadth of my claims, but for the most part I think the conclusions hold. And yes, the responses were disappointing, if only because most of them were irrelevant, but I think there were a couple of good points. Kev 08:50, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

There definately do seem to be parallels between religious belief and the axioms of the "property as extension of self" type of propertarian. But these kinds of faith and dogma can be found in any ideology really, though perhaps it is all the more frustrating when someone tries to justify a system of distribution that enforces poverty upon a segment of the population by claiming to believe in individual "liberty". What is the "liberty" to be rich and live in luxury for the vast majority of people who know it will never apply to them?

As for the disrespectful folk at anti-state.com, I dunno. I mean yes, there are a lot of jerks over there. Then again, there are a lot of jerks all around the internet. Perhaps it is the demographic that tends toward the internet, or the kinds of behavior it encourages, but it certainly makes civil dialogue very difficult when you can't have even the most basic foundation of mutual respect.

Political Chart

If you feel that the political chart I brought into the libertarian socialism article is problematic, perhaps you could suggest a better page for it to reside on. I would like to point out that the anarcho-capitalists and libertarianism pages both include charts highly skewed to a capitalist POV, so I feel that if such a thing is not appropriate for libertarian socialism due to NPOV then it ought not to be appropriate for those pages either. Kev 05:14, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

I think I agree with your take on the charts. It is simply frustrating to me that the anarchism pages are becoming relatively disarmed in their descriptions of the philosophy due to the willingness of people on the anarcho-capitalism and libertarianism pages to engage in these kinds of tactics on all pages in order to express their particular viewpoints. Anyway, it was a good call on your part, I just wish there was some way to bring reciprocity to the situation rather than to have the whole thing become biased by the status quo of its editors' bias.

Re: Question (from my talk page)

I don't think I knew you personally, but you likely knew some of my friends in the comp sci and math departments (I was history/political science and took neither computer science nor math classes while at SU).
