This conversation doesn't have to continue here, as it's out of place, but your statement lends itself to you agreeing with the naive (western) assumption of the totalitarian nature of any communist society (of which, regardless, the world has never seen)\\

I thought the Amish communities were pretty close to "true" communism. Funny how Marx said communism would begin in industrialized nations like Britain when in fact, Russia, China, Cuba, etc. were anything but industrialized.

Speaking of funny, I think the critical massers should all have bells on their bikes. They are very effective; here's proof

No let's talk about these things some more.

Well, communism essentially require industrialization before it can happen, capitalism, rather than a sort of serfitude/feudal land ownership system, is a prerequisite.

This is one of the primary reasons for the downfall of the soviet union. They did remarkably well with what they had, but having no true industrialization prior to the revolution, and having to fight multiple wars against a world that is trying to stomp your brains out put a damper on things.

That and stalin. Had Trotsky become the head of the party after lenin, the soviet union would most likely still be around today.

Critical Mass bicyclists clash with motorist in Berkeley

mander 05-13-07 05:44 PM

EWWWWWWWWW

and **** critical mass

doofo 05-13-07 09:07 PM

i like how they picked an easier target this time

that fat soccer mom put up too much of a fight

mander 05-13-07 09:19 PM

Video http://bclu.org/20070511/

I like how the guy has his crying kids right in the thick of the confrontation, and all the way through. If I didn't know that cars are bad and critical massers are never immoral hippie d-bags I would say he is exploiting their presence for the cameras. Thanks Dad!

I love that you said "dudebro."

You're one of two people I've ever witnessed use that, and the other is myself.
I do, in fact, love you.




now back to wading through this thread.

It's funny that people act like decling medical attention is a big deal.

I don't have insurrance, and I sure as hell would not be taking a thousand dollar(minimum) ambulence ride to a thousand dollar hospital bill if i could ride or walk away from an accident.

doofo 05-13-07 10:20 PM

it means you are part of an outlaw biker gang

and have warrants out in 5 states

willypilgrim 05-13-07 10:24 PM

just like when I had my oldsmobile years ago, and someone backed into me in a parking lot. There wasn't really any significant damage, and i decided it wasn't worth my time/****ing this guys day up because of a tiny mark on my car to involve insurance. He was grateful, and I (and essentially, the car) was fine.

But i guess I was crazy in that situation too.

doofo 05-13-07 10:25 PM

cause you were drunk

griffin_ 05-13-07 10:38 PM

the berkley video is the most ******** thing i've seen in a long time

doofo 05-13-07 10:46 PM

omg

one the attacker is dick cheney

two no one appeared to be under the van despite a lot of screams otherwise

three how can the critmassers be victims of the passenger

four those people are old confused and scared

five what happened to start the incident

six thats what happens when you play eye of the tiger for a mob

willypilgrim 05-13-07 10:48 PM

them being old confused and scared isn't a saving grace for them, if anything they are more at fault in my eyes.

I'm frequently dodging cars driving by old people who are rushing off somewhere to die. And i'm speaking from the viewpoint of pedestrian, bicyclist, and motorist.

doofo 05-13-07 10:53 PM

right but you are talking about a different problem

not one that can be addressed by a crowd screaming at a particular couple

willypilgrim 05-13-07 11:02 PM

but how long does it take you to put a vehicle in reverse when 1)you can feel you have run something over and 2) people are (even if yelling) letting you know that you are parked on top of multiple bicycles.

i don't care how chaotic a situation is, if you are capable of rational thought and also capable of driving a motor vehicle, you should know not to park atop things.

doofo 05-13-07 11:02 PM

his wife had the door open!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

willypilgrim 05-13-07 11:03 PM

damn vans and their open door reverse gear blocking mechanismsssss

doofo 05-13-07 11:07 PM

lets start a ride protesting the dangerous public use of such devices!

willypilgrim 05-13-07 11:09 PM

once i forgot to close my hatch and my car wouldn't start :(
