Fuck Michael Moore. I think we finally have to recognize that this kind of yellow dog politics is only understandable in terms of class rather than a failure to think clearly. Moore's very long career as a successful film-maker has had the effect of convincing him that his class interests are in the capitalist system, despite all the bullshit in his latest movie. He sees things the same way as Barbra Streisand, Robert Redford and all the rest of these fat cats. God damn his eyes. ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: [email protected] Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
