A British Anarchist on James Connolly.
"still think the brits should have done a better job on that medicore nationalist socialist fuckwit....
he has to be the most overrated marxist ever! he was a shite theorist, a 2nd rate nationalist and a very confused syndicalist, yet every fucker you meet abroad doesn't shut the fuck up about him! 1916 was a fucking farce and as far as I see Connolly got what was coming to him. Oh aye lets take over a post office, a biscuit factory and a park and see the bourgeois collapse. The fucking black blocks at summits where less adventurist and probably had better tactics ffs. they shot the cunt so he couldn't renounce his senile nationalist rantings and so keep socialism from sliding into a nationalist cess pool. well so i like to think" http://libcom.org/forums/ireland/james-connolly How nice! |

Id almost care if his opinion was relevant in any way to the working class.

Instead, they offer vague statements about how the workers themselves will directly own and control the means of production and will arrive at their own solutions through creative struggle. No surprise then that the pure socialists support every revolution except the ones that succeed. - Michael Parenti |

Don't use this as a typical statement made by Anarchists. It's an ultra-left position. Not an Anarchist one.

I'm an anarchist and I have alot of respect from James Connolly. I think this outburst is immature and disgusting.
Are you just trying to troll here, hence the emphasis on a 'British Anarchist'? Did you not see the responses in the thread where the guy's rant is criticised? Are you trying to make some sweeping claim about British Anarchists?

Actually I think it's a Belfast anarchist from a catholic background, but then that wouldn't really fit the 'chauvinist Brits' image that you are trying to paint.

Sorry my mistake....Though he seems to consider himself British. The word "cunt" is an incredibly ugly and dehumanizing one. |

this libcom thread is from 2005 and is pretty typical of revols threads where he trashed everything and everyone. and your heading for this thread is pretty disgraceful in all honesty,revol would be proud of you.
