Rather he's more of a useful idiot - useful to the powers that be, that is. <BR/><BR/>He favours what he calls <B>M</B>utually <B>A</B>ssured <B>D</B>estruction which I'm not sure qualifies as any sort of sane demand on any level. <BR/><BR/>MAD by name, MAD by nature. <BR/><BR/>Smashing shit up has always had limited political value and is usually over just as quickly as it starts. If anything, smashing shit up acts as the catalyst for, and justification of, even more repression. <BR/><BR/>The State -- <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly_on_the_legitimate_use_of_physical_force" REL="nofollow">as Max Weber noted</A> -- holds the monopoly on the legitimate use of violence. That's how it maintains itself and why it maintains standing bodies of armed men, ready to be deployed to manifest that violence on command.<BR/><BR/>What's required by the greater mass of humanity is instead organisation and solidarity, and the seizing control of their means of production and property, in the collective interest of all.The Antagonisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01459201402366077472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5892105.post-27074196950116593052009-03-27T16:11:00.000+00:002009-03-27T16:11:00.000+00:00Thanks Bridget!

That is, it's the line we'll adopt until such time when you've been in solitary for year, had your time consuming appearance in court at the cost of £millions only for them to find out (if your lucky) that we've been talking out of our bottoms - oh btw, you're life is ruinied now anyway so you may as well stay in Belmsrsh anyway - F u buddy!"]<BR/><BR/>I watched the video last week. It's good 'n gives well laid out reasons WHY such a law is needed plus how bent lawyers and cops can 'stuff you' and CO19 style 'snuff you', even if you are innocent.<BR/><BR/>Not that you really need bent cops in the UK anyway (made redundant largely by incompetitat and expedient judges). Still, if you are wrongly conviced, you've got you nestegg of £46 to look froward on release (rate of £1.70 for a year of your life).<BR/><BR/>The cop talking at then end seemed pretty reasonable however, but obviously was wise enough to bend the system in his favour.<BR/><BR/>But, Lordy how bad things have become.
