Voting is Still Wrong

The fact that those engaging in this discourse are proposing to put people on trial for disagreeing with them on a political point, is enough reason to not to support them by voting. It makes the fact that their real objective is to impose their own authoritarian political will upon people all to clear.

The fact that mandatory voting is even being discussed seriously in left-wing circles, only adds urgency to the cause, and speaks of great moral corruption.

Jail is social exclusion. So are courts, and whatever other devices you are intending to use in your police state.

Yes and Pol Pots reeducation camps were a kind of political/psychological holiday camp.

In anycase I think you have been deemed to be an unfit participant in the deliberative assembly. Nor have you come up with a case that suggests that the decision is not an expression of the collective will, and so the group has decided that since "all rights are instituted by a collective will", as you put it, yours are forfeit.

Nonetheless, you are bring anti-social and you should respect the will of the collective and shut up. Thanks.

It is always amusing when fascist whiners who are so emphatically for taking away the rights of others, become such whiners when theirs are removed.

You are not "the people" nor do you have the right to speak for them as a collective. As it is, there is a collective here and it has decided that you are anti-social and should go away. The fact that you can't respect that only indicates once more how your whole view is really an expression of egotistical desire to impose, your view, of what the collective will should be on everyone.

You trolling me again? I can't remember a single incident on this board where the board categorically sided with you on the issue of my anti-social behaviour.

Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

 NDP Bad NDP BAD NDP Bad NDP BAD

 Have I missed anything in your argument? You are a broken record that just keeps skipping back to the same line over and over and over and over and over and over.

Its too bad because you might even have something interesting and thoughtful to say if you didn't compulsively continue in every context to say NDP bad NDP bad NDP bad NDP bad NDP bad.

What you are really saying is that I "might even have something interesting and thoughtful to say if you" only attacked enemies of the NDP and didn't respond in kind when NDP'rs inists on attacking anyone who criticizes the NDP as whatever enemy of the people is current. Pick you colour, Greenie, Liberal, Tory or Communist.

What does that say about Layton? Let me be clear; not much, necessarily, but we are talking about class here, and inherent class interests, not political outlook per se, but if you think a family like that is not an establishment family, I'd hate to see what you think "working class" is.

Uh, so what would they be the political class, activist class, or what?

I read up on their history and they seem to be pretty much working class in origin.

What is establishment? Or even what is non-establishment? And what does establishment mean even pertinent to this discussion?

My mother's family was here in Canada long, long, before Layton's was,  and perhaps even my father's, though they might not yet have moved across the 49th and into what would become Canada, and yet her name is a signatory to first the CCF party creation and later the NDP. And they were both life time social justice activists.

Aside from that, I find this comment of yours extremely troubling on many levels.

How would you know if anyone tried to have you banned? It would seem that that should/would be inside of rabble information. If indeed you do know something like this has happened, then, it would seem some's privacy rights have been violated by someone at babble. And that is extremely disquieting, at best! Moreover, outting the babble board that told you this, on your part, is also extremely questionable behaviour.

Always assuming there is a NDP "goon squad" that tried to have you banned, as if there is, I am not aware of any such a movement, or indeed "goon squad". Or could it be you are making it all up? As I personally have a hard time believing that michelle, bcg, or oldgoat would share something that contains privacy issues with you.

How would I know? They said that is what they wanted to do in a thread. Repeated it seveal times. Then basically a thread got started on the topic. Bookish Agrarian started the ides, I think. Then of course without really saying as much the whole central committee jumped into the thread, as usual.
