@App - interesting magazine this Jacobin. Refreshingly leftist for a change. But sometimes marred by that same old wilful blindsidedness we remember from the counterculture rhetoric of the 60-70s. (I find the complete absence of any provision for readers to comment back both telling and oddly familiar. Dialogue was never the extreme Left's strong point. They always preferred the soapbox or lecture rather than a discussion or debate conducted in good-faith.)

But still...talk about a blast from the past! Thx for finding and sharing that. :) :Thmbsup:

Why are you trying to make me post a rebuttal when I don't want to?  :P

Better than nothing I suppose. But IMHO a FB membership is a pretty high price to pay just to comment on something. :-\ ;)
