We just weren't raised the same way as Rudy "I am not a racist" Giuliani.

"Beware of the liveried hypocrites of the landlords, the usurers, the money-changers, the stock gamblers, the exploiters, the enslavers and despoilers of the people; beware of the ruling class politicians and preachers and mercenary menials in every form who are so profoundly concerned about your 'patriotism' and your 'religion' and who receive their 30 pieces for warning you against socialism because it will endanger your morality and interfere with your salvation."

(Eugene V. Debs, "Politicians and Preachers", The American Socialist, June 24, 1916)

Bri: The problem with most Commie parties is a wholesale lack of PARTY. (Pol Pot not so much, but I digress)

As the BRCCP is still in its formative stages, I think some sweeping changes are in order. A position paper on reckless sex, drugs and rock & roll perhaps? Maybe form a strategic alliance with Simon for tunes, party favors, hookers and blow?

Just thinkin' out loud here...

[Simon of the Playa]

the BRCCP shall do no such thing, and our plans shall remain a secret, as they should be.


we have a zero tolerance for agent provacateurs.


all commie come latelys will be met with the harshest of suspicion and scrutiny.


thats how we roll.


we have a Beria, and he is placed in the highest corridors of power, watching, always watching.


and, we ARE everywhere.


суки.

Our position

[Lonesomebri]

This sure reminds me of something....

“In 1972, animal behaviorist John Calhoun built a rat paradise with beautiful buildings and limitless food. He introduced eight mice to the population. Two years later, the mice had created their own apocalypse…. Universe 25 was a giant box designed to be a rodent utopia…

At the peak population, most mice spent every living second in the company of hundreds of other mice. They gathered in the main squares, waiting to be fed and occasionally attacking each other…

The few secluded spaces housed a population Calhoun called, "the beautiful ones." Generally guarded by one male, the females—- and few males — inside the space didn't breed or fight or do anything but eat and groom and sleep. When the population started declining the beautiful ones were spared from violence and death, but had completely lost touch with social behaviors…

A recent study pointed out that Universe 25 was not, if looked at as a whole, too overcrowded. Pens, or "apartments" at the very end of each hallway had only one entrance and exit, making them easy to guard. This allowed more aggressive territorial males to limit the number mice in that pen, overcrowding the rest of the world, while isolating the few "beautiful ones" who lived there from normal society. Instead of a population problem, one could argue that Universe 25 had a fair distribution problem…”

So... No party then.

Truth always rests with the minority, and the minority is always stronger than the majority, because the minority is generally formed by those who really have an opinion, while the strength of a majority is illusory, formed by the gangs who have no opinion — and who, therefore, in the next instant (when it is evident that the minority is the stronger) assume its opinion, which then becomes that of the majority, i.e., becomes nonsense by having the whole [mass] on its side, while Truth again reverts to a new minority.
In regard to Truth, this troublesome monster, the majority, the public, etc., fares in the same way as we say of someone who is traveling to regain his health: he is always one station behind.

Søren Kierkegaard

The majority never has right on its side. Never, I say. That is one of these social lies against which an independent, intelligent man must wage war. Who is it that constitute the majority of the population in a country? Is it the clever folk or the stupid? I don't imagine you will dispute the fact that at present the stupid people are in an overwhelming majority all the world over. But, good Lord!–you can never pretend that it is right that the stupid folk should govern the clever ones! . . . The majority has might on its side–unfortunately; but right it has not. I am in the right–I and a few other scattered individuals. The minority is always in the right.

There's just something about those Scandinavians...

Lonesomebri and the BRCCP leads even Germany in its progressive outlook:
One in three Germans say capitalism to blame for poverty, hunger

Emnid is well respected.

[Simon of the Playa]

it never really died...

[Simon of the Playa]

to those who praise the benefits of unfettered, unregulated, uncontrolled rapacious capitalism, read it and weep...COMMon sense wins again...

The same Mark Dayton who closed his senate office for no apparent reason.

http://content.time.com/time/nation/art ... 84,00.html

Yeah, no reason at all. Meanwhile getting felt up at the airport, being electronically strip-searched, your email being read by bureaucrats, eternal war, torture, prison with no trial, etc. Business as usual, right? This dude closes his office using the same exact excuse used to shred the Constitution; "terrorism". Your complaint? Not being able to visit the Minnesotan congressperson at their Washington DC office?

But the big question- How did this affect your Burn? Isn't that the gold standard for the Boutique Hotel/sell-out enablers? If it didn't affect your Burn you aren't supposed to have a say, remember?

That's not how the BRCCP looks at life, but could the enablers at least play by their own misconstrued and hobbled debate rules?

It was deeply affected. Thanks for asking, Bri. You're so considerate, really.

Ahhhhhh..... horrible news from horrible people about horrible things. An article on some EDM site about how the oil kingdom of Dubai, built on international poverty labor, is going to build a resort island... you know... like Burning Man. Wonder where they will recruit their Sherpas. Somewhere out there in the abyss these people are making these links between Burning man, EDM, excessive consumption, exploitation, etc. Wonder where they get those ideas?

“We’re trying to make it the new Ibiza – a mini Ibiza dedicated solely to partying. People will be able to come here, stay in the hotel party at clubs on the beach, anything in the world you can do… And we are trying to attract festivals to come here – like Burning Man.”

Horrid.

[Ugly Dougly]

You still think Burning Man hasn't gone mainstream by now?

[GreyCoyote]

Oh, it's gone mainstream all right. The problem is, it's lost all it's paddles...

[Bless]

Regional burn in Dubai? I can dig it. At least they have the desert part locked down.

[Simon of the Playa]

Did you know that a real revolutionary communist came to Burning man in 2010?
"Bob Avakian, the Chairman of our Party, we have the kind of rare and precious leader who does not come along very often. A leader who has given his heart, and all his knowledge, skills and abilities to serving the cause of revolution and the emancipation of humanity".
You can't make this stuff up.
