1. The invasions of these countries would stretch the military too thin for effectiveness. As an unnecessary, imperialist foreign war, it should anger the Workers of the home country. 2. With their old labor pool in the third world nations lost, Capitalists would be forced to employ the shit jobs they formerly reserved for starving foreigners in their own country. This should bring the workers to further understand the true, exploitative nature of Capitalism. 3. Different events such as these, coupled with a growing Socialist mentality from revisionist, revolutionary, and syndicalist organizations within the home country, would simply lead the Capitalists into a death trap, and even closer to their downfall.

Anyone here work with/are decent at 3-D Animation, more specifically NewTek's Lightwave program? Reason being I'm taking a class in it right now and currently modeling/animating a film to take to a Tech Prep competition. Anyone have some advice/input?

I haven't played this game in Ages, and yet I'm still convinced it's one of the best Non-RTS Games of all time.

Paranoia at its most entertaining!

God, I can hardly stand hearing this anymore. Even after the Swine Flu "Fad" supposedly died months ago, people are still bitching about it at school. Not as bad as before summer break, though. Well, a few events in particular. 1, There was this one guy who came to school wearing a surgical mask for about a week, and I think he was being serious. For the record, he was a complete arsewipe, and looked strangely like a 4th grader misplaced into High School through some bureaucratic error or another. 2, my BCIS Teacher (Business Computer Info. System) completely freaked out a few days after the "Epidemic of the deadly virus", and us students, apparently being as cheap shit labor can get, were instructed to wipe down our computers (and most of the classroom) with Antibiotics. Hilarious, considering H1N1 is a Virus, and therefore unaffected by 'em!

Ah, my mistake. Thanks!

In most of the Advanced Capitalist countries of the world, the economy is based on the exchange of goods and services, and almost entirely dependent on goods brought in from third world countries exploited by Capitalists. So, in an advanced European or American country, a change should be made to a Syndicalist and/or Nonprofit bloc in the economy to provide an alternative to Services provided within that country. Ideally, this should coincide with Armed Worker's revolutions in the third world countries exploited by the Capitalists, denying them major sources of materials and workforce. In time, instead of overthrowing the entire Capitalist system in one fell swoop, this should wear away at and corrode the Capitalist system, until its ultimate destruction.

Hmm... "Love" and "Evil" are two words I rarely ever use.

Most C&C music. Most of all HM1, Act on Instinct, and Pharotek.

I have this game; absolutely LOVE it. One of my favorite games behind only Civ III and RA2.

The Democratic Party of Japan is only progressive when compared to Japan's previous regimes. In my own opinion, I find it pitiful people see them as actually being Leftist.

Wow, I can't say just how awesome that looks. Just be thankful we haven't felt the need to really invent the Stillsuit yet.

Traditionally, there have been only two options to bring about a form of Socialism in a Capitalist society - Revolution and Reform. For an armed Working Class revolution to succeed, it needs two things: Support of the Military, and Central Leadership. Historically, this has been a success in all but the society produced post-revolution; a Quasi-Totalitarian Military Dictatorship under a red banner, rather than a truly Socialist society. In this respect, I differ from many of my Anarchist comrades by being largely against Revolution on a large scale. There is often a time for a Revolution, but almost never on the scale of a massive empire such as that of Russia or America. Then, there's Reform. For one thing, 50 years of governmental and economic reform lasts a damn long time, and the results aren't very different than before, and can almost never succeed thanks to our good friend, "Corporate Interests". Most of the time, Socialist reform in the government ends up with an odd compromise between Capitalism and Socialism, Sweden being an obvious example. I'm also against this, for the most part. Instead, I prefer a lesser known method: Syndicalism. Work within a Capitalist economy peacefully, with Worker's self management and independent companies run democratically by the whole of its workers. Provide the people with an alternative to capitalism, and manage to out-compete the old Capitalist institutions. I recognize that this has some serious faults, but I think it's a better alternative than the other two. For one thing, it's peaceful, and doesn't need the leadership of a Bolshevist "Vanguard party", or reliance in the Government.

Eh, I've got a fairly broad range of tastes. I can probably sum 'em up with a few handy links.

w00t, my first post on Dune2k. Not entirely sure if this should be in general, but I just feel obligated to give an intro to Dune2k before I start to post regularly. OK, then. To describe myself, I'm 16, a Junior in high school; I've only read the first book of Dune so far(trying to change that, don't worry), and found this site awhile back while searching for a downloadable version of Dune 2000. The thought only a bit ago occurred to me to actually get around to joining the forum. More controversially are my politics; I'm proudly a "Red Anarchist" (Think along the lines of "Emma Goldman" and "Mikhail Bakunin" rather than "Ayn Rand" or "Hot Topic"). Quite odd, considering I'm in Texas, surrounded on all sides by evangelicals and hostile rednecks. As you can probably infer, I'm also a fan of Dune. Discuss? Comment? Welcome? kk.
