What would you say to someone to persuade them not to join the AF?

[LLETSA]

With all this bickering, this thread's just descending into anarchy....

 

[Paul Marsh]

Dwarfed only by that monster organisation, xcw

I'll have to give you that one Charlie, and in my experience ex-AF members are considerably less irritating than ex-Class War members!

Whilst I am on, is there any truth in the rumour that you have told attica that if he leaves Class War he is guaranteed a seat "at the top table" in the AF?

 

[Pilgrim]

I'm looking at joining AF, as soon as I can meet up with some AF members.

I'll probably do that at the Anarchist bookfair in October.

Hope to see some of you there.

The randy old goat - is he inviting her back to his place to look at his collection of Bulgarian Anarchist etchings?

Ugandan Anarchist etchings, not Bulgarian

That is the right word, isn't it?

[flimsier]

why does this thread exist other than to cause shit?

I hope you would say that with a similarly named SWP thread.

Is there any truth in the rumour.... no I can't be bothered to go there... this is seriously irritating bullshit... What a waste of time...

The pickman and Paul double act are....

and as a double act who does that remind me of?....

 

[charlie mowbray]

Cannon and Ball?
Little and Large?
Now I realise who you are, Attica!

Hi Charlie, see you at the bookfair, and no, I'm not going anywhere....

 

[charlie mowbray]

Methinks some people would like you to!

Yes. By those who were treated as brothers too so the betrayal does sting, but I have got over it. I've never seen the spin, ie. the false creation of a rumour by pretending to have heard it, used so well in REAL politics by Paul before and not in the virtual twilight world he's trying to exercise political clout. He must be pulling out all the stops for some unknown reason.

AS I said, the rumour was just created by Paul, he's spinning for England - the new Warne, and god knows what other user names he/they are using too.

 

[catch]

Can't make head nor tail of most of attica's post. But it's pretty obvious Paul Marsh was joking.

You don't know the depths of the dispute and so can't see the intent behind the facade. AS for not getting the post, then it's clear you need mentoring in politics then too.

Seriously, what part of the post don't you get? It's very self explanatory really as I shall show when you claim not to get 'such and such' a point.

Sometimes ignorance is bliss.
Its a case of knowing that you don't want to know.i guess,er.

Thats more than a little paranoid, if that statement came from someone atleast semi-serious i'd ask for some prove.
Should i feel slighted for not being kept in the loop.

As for you, the king of the not serious, that's a bit rich.

The proof? The way I am being treated IS the proof of betrayal - that's how it feels. Is it paranoid? Well, there is definately hard associational proof of conspiracy, what level of proof do you want anyway?

ern would have loved all of this........

Your confusing being a pompapious arse with being serious.The the only thing that you are serious about is being a serious mental case.

 

[kropotkin]

If someone was going to join the Anarchist Federation is there anything you could say to them that would change their mind?

If they think that what they have to say makes sense and seems like something they want to be involved with could you point anything out to them they may not be aware of?

Are you being serious?

As an AF member, I'd say that if they agreed with the politics, they should meet up with some AF types and talk to them. They'd be able to make their own mind up, I'm sure.

 

[Chuck Wilson]

Isn't there some sort of test or candidate membership? I always thought anarchists were on their guard about infiltrators ?

Or is there a secret inner cell that exclusively communicates with 'The Raven'?

 

[Sorry.]
