What I'd like to see is a political cartoon showing both Tea Party and OWS looking angry.

The Tea Party is holding up guns, and the OWS is only carrying signs.

And a little subtitle under Tea Party saying

^Never been touched by Police

and

^Been tear-gassed for trying to help injured protestors, and arrested for "being too violent"

under OWS

I use the term Glibertarian to distinguish sub-human Randroids from people like Noam Chomsky or the followers of Proudhon or Bakunin. I may not agree with libertarianism any more, but they shouldn't have to share an ideology with that filth.

The party's name is the Democratic Party. It has been since 1830. Please spell correctly.

I've never understood why Proudhon is so popular with anarchists. What he proposes is simply anarcho-capitalism with everyone being a small business owner.

With equal distribution of wealth and little to no private property...

So is it like syndicalism?
I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Nor, private property would still exist. Everyone one would be petty-bourgeois.

No, syndicalists are 'traditional' anarchists except that they look to the working class as the revolutionary agent (I like to think most anarchists do, but some don't) and are willing to work with current unions and workers organisations.

"Property is Theft?"

He also said "Property is Liberty."  Essentially, he held that there were two kinds of property.  There was property that you had because you used force (government, police, etc.) and property you had because you worked for it (land you personally cultivated, tools of your trade, the fruits of your labor).  How this is supposed to be enforced is, as in all anarchies, left vague.  Presumably the magic anarchy fairies stroll around protecting people's rights.  Or somesuch.

Proudhon believed in the equal distribution of wealth, so no property rights in a capitalist sense. But you can have private property like, you know, family photos and stuff. The inequal distribution of wealth is, among other things, murder and theft and all the rest.

I don't get what the joke is supposed to be.  Not very funny.

It's making fun of those asshats who oppose stem cell research because it "kills babies" (which it doesn't), despite the sheer number of treatments and cures some research can offer.
Her3tik, you have groupies.
