    So, another forum likely to be monopolised by the user formerly known as Movimento Socialista or one of their other aliases.

    No thanks.

    Have we not someone on this site with the linguistic (native language) and presumed political competence to speak to the matter of ‘Zukunftsstaat’

    The literal translation of Zukunftsstaat is of course Future State.
    However, I do not consider myself sufficiently competent enough politically to say if Kautsky intended a more nuanced meaning.

    Gesellschaft, for example, could mean society but depending on the particular context might equally translate as corporation, company, group of people or guests!

    Not much help I know 🙂

    “An area of Ukraine approximately the size of Florida is now riddled with land mines, which could take hundreds of years to reverse: report”

    There was this rather unfortunate comment when Princess Diana was in Angola on her landmine campaign.

    The thing about mine fields is that they’re very easy to lay, but they’re very difficult and dangerous, and even expensive to get rid of…

    Perfect description of Charles’ first marriage 🙂

    Well said Paula. Good for you. A worthy successor to Alan.

    That remains to be seen. At least he knew the difference between reforms and reformism.

    For the umpteenth time it’s Alan Johnstone

    As the alleged moderator of this forum you should at least aim to get some things right!

    Or are you dyslexic?

    I think you’ll find SPGB meetings (including the recent Summer School) are now accessed via jit.si not zoom.
    Incorrect information is worse than no information.

    Remember TS?

    Absolutely and they were far more entertaining than most of you lot.

    Lizzie45 I am not white knighting for Paula but might I point out to you Forum Rule 7?

    And just as I was beginning to warm to you, Dave 🙂

    Otherwise, why decline the suggestion that you read the article in question?.

    Christus! Have you been spending too long basking in the Spanish sun?

    I declined “the suggestion” because I already know all I wish to know about De Sade including his penchant for inflicting pain, suffering and humiliation non-consensually on others.

    Can we please get back on topic?

    Pay attention. I am talking about the article ZJW referred you to, not the random “sadist” in the street you seem to have in mind.

    You pay attention! I wasn’t referring to the content of the article per se but to the individual that it was about.

    No one on this forum is interested in inflicting pain and humiliation on others
.

    How do you know? Are you clairvoyant? 🙂

    Only unpleasant women complain of misogyny.

    And you couldn’t hope to meet a thoroughly more unpleasant woman than me! 🙂

    And you castigate others for their mistakes in English?

    TouchĂ©, Thomas. But a mere typo – my command of the English language is arguably superior than that of most of the indigenous population.

    Why do you make this assumption that anyone is “getting off” on the extreme pain and humiliation of others???

    It’s not an assumption but an historical fact where De Sade is concerned. Do some research.
