Gothic metal and rock[edit]

I would like to hear the argument you have for gothic metal not being part of the gothic subculture when gothic rock is. Heavy metal is a genre of rock, how is the same kind of music not and one is? — Save_Us 01:13, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please point out the specific thread the says there is a consensus that gothic metal isn't. — Save_Us 01:20, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. That was a year about ago and not much was said other than users giving their personal point of view on it and consensus changes sometimes. I will start a thread, preferably a straw poll, on Talk:Goth subculture, to determine if gothic metal should be added to the template of gothic subculture. To remain even, I will start the thread and end it when a satisfactory consensus is made, and I will refrain from adding my own !vote. Feel free to comment there once the thread starts. The most credible arguments are going to be ones with the best reliable sources to back up their argument, so please provide any you have to the discussion. Thanks, — Save_Us 01:32, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment[edit]

Please do not encourage a banned sockpuppeteer from editing wikipedia. 87.122 is user:Breathtaker--Dr who1975 (talk) 19:14, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, i'm evil. I'm an IP and Dr. F.U. is a registered user. Registered users are good, unregistered users are bad. A typical Wikipedia game. But hey, Dr. F.U., you can be sure, i'll fight until the end and i'll revert wrong crap of this fucking encyclopaedia.

THANK YOU[edit]

You are my hero. Thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much for fixing up the Marilyn Manson band members page. I was going to do it, but... I'm lazy XD

So just thank you so much for fixing it up =3

Goth template[edit]

I would appreciate it if you do not revert all the changes I made to the template just because of one issue that you apparently disagree with. I did not only add gothic metal to the template. I also fixed the caps, removed duplicate entries and alphabetised the three lists. As far as the inclusion of gothic metal is concerned, I do not know what discussion you are referring to. The only thing that I have seen on talk pages of relevant articles are expressions of prejudice from fans. If you have any sources to support your assertion that gothic metal is not gothic music, as you put it, then please provide them. There are many sources in the gothic metal article that demonstrates the genre is connected to both goth rock and gothic aesthetics. Bear in mind that unlike the articles on dark wave or death-rock for instance, the article on gothic metal actually discusses gothic aesthetics in the context of the subject. If the folk music template can includes such genres as folk metal and folk punk in its list, I see no reason why the gothic template cannot include gothic metal in its list given that the connection between gothic metal and the gothic subculture seems to be much stronger than any connection between folk metal and authentic folk music. --Bardin (talk) 19:11, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not encourage sockpuppets to edit wikipedia. There is a reason users have been banned... Breathtaker had ample opportunity to discuss things civily and he squandered those opportunitys with insults and attacks. Remember, talk pages are the property of wikipedia too. To put it as bluntly as you did "Do not encourage banned users".--Dr who1975 (talk) 18:10, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I thought the ban was self evicdent in my edit summary where I said it was a sock of User:Breathtaker... I used to say "sock of banned User:Breathtaker"... guess I need to go back to that.--Dr who1975 (talk) 22:30, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Currents of Transhumanism[edit]

You added "Anarcho-transhumanism" and "Christian transhumanism" to the Currents section of the Transhumanism article. These two so-called currents were deleted in July 2006 after a debate among the main contributors to the article at the time. The debate can be found in Talk:Transhumanism/Archive 12#Currents. --Loremaster (talk) 08:44, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Even though you already knew the general content of the article, thanks for your comment on the page. Hopefully you will weigh in with an opinion on these images an Administrator deleted within minutes of receiving the same notice above. They were originally posted by another Administrator with the tag he deemed appropriate. When two Administrators have a diametrically opposed POV, then consensus is built by other users offering an opinion. The Administrator who deleted it wrote it made Cormier look too good and was not neutral.

  • Zazaban the article is totally destroyed, but I'm no stranger to disappointment. I had hoped to be able to complete it and then find someone to help me to perfect it so it would read encyclopedic. The interaction with Trudeau concurrent to the 3 Popes was factual and prophetic, not fantasy. I have copies obtained under the Access to Information Act of RCMP reports confirming the substance of those facts. How could this information be cited or referenced? The Declaration on Remembrance Day Day 1985, in the presence of the Governor-General of Canada, Government Leaders, the Military, Ambassadors of the Nations and 25,000 people was publicly declared and prophetic, "Hear O people and Nations, even to the ends of the Earth, the Word of the Lord God who is, and was, and is to come, The Almighty. The Lord has a controversy with the people. Do you do well to honour the dead, and yet, deny the God of the Living? Why do you follow the vain traditions of men, and make of no effect, the principles of God? You come here for one hour one day a year in a great show of public patriotism, and then forgetting, go back to work and make the same careless mistakes made by the generations prior to the 1st and 2nd World Wars. Hitler was killed, but it's his legacy that remains. A Soviet-American military-industrial complex consuming $trillions of dollars every year, holding the entire World hostage............"

"Hostage" was the last word he said perched on a bus shelter roof, as police got up and grabbed his megaphone. He was arrested for shouting, causing a disturbance, convicted and fined $250. He appealed without a lawyer to the Supreme Court of Canada.[16][17][18] is exactly factual, prophetic and important, referenced and in Court documents. The world is being held hostage to the War on terrorism. What further verification is required? Since I discovered the article April 19, approximately 2500 views were registered to the page from an average of 60 views a month for the two years previous. According to Wikipedia because they did not object is considered consent to the way it read. This paragraph from the article is significantly important and prophetic. "In 1981, Cormier hitchhiked from Ottawa to Whitehorse, Yukon to draw attention to Revelation 19:11 [2]. Newspapers across the country chronicled his journey, and twenty years later the world was stunned to witness 9/11 as described in Revelation 18. There was an off site link so a user could read directly 19:11 and 9/11 from Revelation themselves. Even the References to this time were deleted This could have been edited to be more encyclopedic in style. It takes many years of hindsight to see if prophecy is fulfilled. I just don't understand how an article on a prophet could be relevant with the prophecies deleted. DoDaCanaDa (talk) 16:09, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Zazaban when I started this section on your page I was reaching out for help. I have not developed a network of friends yet on Wikipedia. Granted, most visitors to your page I suspect are not interested in the subject matter of the article and information above but that is not the point. I need to find contributors who are serious editors who will take on the challenge to examine the raw material in the history of the article and in the discussion and transform the information into acceptable language for the article. I though the image problem was resolved for a few days, the the Administrator who started the decimation with his network of Administrator friends rekindled the flame yesterday calling for speedy deletion of them. Since the article is on me, I have recused myself from editing it which is proper. Volunteers please! Peace DoDaCanaDa (talk) 15:38, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, saw your post to WP:AIV about Anna Quist. Good job not exceeding 3 reverts yourself. You're right that she shouldn't be removing maintenance tags without fixing the problem or discussing it, but you know she's allowed to remove the PROD notice, right? To quote from the prod template itself:

Just a heads up in case you weren't aware. Now that the prod template's been removed, it should be taken to AFD instead (I can help if you'd like).

I'll try talking to Anna about the maintenance templates and if that doesn't work, I guess she'll have to be blocked. Peace, delldot talk 01:45, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Astronomy[edit]

I see from your user page the subject interests you. I don't know if this is from an observers POV or as a practitioner, but in 1976 when I held a vigil at the Liberty Memorial Mall in Kansas City after the Republican National Convention (Ref: Kathleen Patterson, 'Prophet Chooses Park for Vigil', The Kansas City Times, 13 September, 1976, pg 3A and Robert W. Butler, 'Prophet Plans Appeal of Conviction', The Kansas City Times, 2 November, 1976) I enjoyed frequent access to drop into the studio of a local night radio talk show. One time an astrologist by the name of Gars Austin was on the line from Texas giving brief chart readings based only on the birth date of callers. Coming up to a news break and not knowing me, from the studio I asked if he could do a more in depth reading based on my birth at 8am Sunday morning in Montreal May 21, 1944. The talk show host, the listeners and I were amazed with what he came back with. I asked if the charts showed anything significant around February 1, 1975 the date of my Spiritual resurrection. He didn't know anything about that. We were all surprised when he said, "According to my chart, on that date you had a very powerful Spiritual experience." From that time I had to give more credence to what is written in the stars. Peace DoDaCanaDa (talk) 13:13, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bessie Smith[edit]

I noticed that you changed a reference to the hospital in which Bessie Smith died from "Afro-American" to "Black", pointing out in your explanation that "this is the thirties we are talking about here." Well yes, 1937, to be exact, but I changed your well-meant correction back, because this little hospital was indeed known as the "Afro-American Hospital" back then. If you need proof, take a look at Bessie's 1937 Certificate of Death (pictured in my biography of Bessie Smith)--it lists the place of death as "Afro-American Hospital, 613 (or618) Sunflower Ave., Clarksdale."

Hi, replied. delldot talk 21:26, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thanks for the heads up about this. I tried explaining my position to Anna, I don't know if she'll be interested in hearing about it. I saw the discussion between you and Anna, it looks to me like it would be best if you stepped back from the whole matter and tried to avoid Anna, and let others deal with her. I feel like the conflict is kind of perpetuating itself at this point, you know? I think you handled it well by tagging the reincarnation for deletion and letting someone else know about the situation, I think you should do more of that in the future rather than trying to argue with her. I mean, far be it from me to discourage discussion, but it just seems like it's not getting anywhere, you know? The long and short of it is if she keeps editing disruptively, she's gonna be blocked, we deal with stuff like this every day. If her disruption gets bad, feel free to take it to WP:ANI or let someone know, but I'd imagine ignoring her would be a quicker way to get her to stop, you know? Anyway, these are just my thoughts, feel completely free to handle it however you want. Thanks for handling the whole matter in a reasonable way so far. Peace, delldot talk 22:16, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Smells Like Children[edit]

Your recent edit to Marilyn Manson discography moved the album Smells Like Children from compilation albums to EPs. According to Extended play, an EP "...contains more music than a single, but is too short to qualify as an LP. Usually, an EP has around 10–20 minutes of music..." and Smells Like Children is just under an hour in time. An EP can also be classified by number of songs, where most have 3-6 songs. Smells Like Children has 16 songs. This album is far too long to be considered an EP. Fezmar9 (talk) 16:31, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well it appears to be a collection of remixes and covers in addition to some totally new songs. It seems to be part studio album, part remix album, part cover album, and part EP. I felt that compilation album was the best category for this album based on its composition of a variety of different songs. I really do not think it belongs under EP on the discography.

Apology[edit]

A while ago, I made edits to the Invader ZIM article that were considered original research. You had said something to another editor that wasn't me and I assumed that you were addressing me. I took offense to what you had said and was really a jerk afterwards. I want to apologize for saying that you didn't actually watch the show, because I know that you do. It was my own fault for even getting upset over nothing and posting unsourced facts without any credible evidence. By the way, my IP used to be "68.164.59.136". Again, I apologize for saying stupid things to you. I'm saying this now because I kind of forgot about it or just didn't feel like I did just before I typed this. 72.211.210.2 (talk) 03:24, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Message to Zazaban and Shomorok about cooperation to improve the AI-Wiki-page[edit]

As you well know, the AI-Wiki-page is once more deleted, this time by Bjweeks on a request from Hoary. I have written to them at their talkpages about cooperation to achieve an AI-Wiki-page that has general Wiki-consent, before publishing it again. Copies of these messages are on my talk page. Take a look at them. As AI is the largest anarchist-network in the world, it of course should have a Wiki-page. I invite you all to contribute to a better AI-Wiki-page for later publishing. This time so good that it will not be deleted by anyone.

Anarchist sources[edit]

Yo, sorry I wasn't a little clearer, but the Anarchism reliable sources guidelines are supposed to tell the reader in no uncertain terms what should be sourced (i.e. "You can source X in circumstances Y" rather than "X should be ok"). There needs to be a justification on the talkpage about why the source meets WP:RS. I'm not sure about Libcom as they seem to allow users to post without going through editors and don't fully name the authors of a lot of their content. I don't know about their reputation for fact-checking and accuracy, but your word is good enough on that. Can you clarify on the talkpage? Mahalo, Skomorokh 21:55, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

To all members of the Anarchist Task Force - about improvement of the AI-Wiki-page[edit]

I have just joined the Anarchist Task Force, and I have had some problems with publishing of my Anarchist International Wikipedia page, see my sandbox http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Anna_Quist/Anarchist_International for the present version/proposal. This page needs improvements to reach Wiki-consensus, and this should be a somewhat collective project to avoid a "COI"-template.

Stop this ochlarchic nonsense![edit]

I am asking you to stop this ochlarchist behaviour. I will ask you to stop these lies and smearstories about AI, or else you will be trialed by the International Anarchist Tribunal, and get an expelling Brown Card from the IAT on Internet for ochlarchical, authoritarian behaviour, see http://www.anarchy.no/iat.html . AI-members, including networkmembers/subscribers, are significantly the only real anarchists in the world. AI has about 50 000 anarchists associated to the network, see http://www.anarchy.no/pictures.html . There are not so many other anarchists around. There are only a few libertarians outside AI that are real anarchists. However there are plenty of marxists and liberalists that wrongly pose as anarchists, you are among them.

Anna Quist's userpage[edit]

Hi Zazaban, I was about to revert your edit to User:Anna Quist but thought it would be more productive to post here first/instead/whatever. I understand why you did it, but it runs contrary to the spirit of Wikipedia:User page. I think it is totally appropriate to put such a thing on the talk page (where I expect you expect it to be removed from), but... anyway, I thought I'd ask you to consider removing it from the userpage and putting it on the talk page.

Questionable edit[edit]

Hello Zazaban, I’d like to suggest that your recent edit to Anna Quist’s talkpage is only going to exacerbate the situation. I’m sure that you’re annoyed, but your comment would be considered by many to be trolling. I agree with your position in regards to her (his?) edits, but I don’t think this edit was a good idea.

No matter. Even if it isn't trolling, it looks like it. I therefore removed the comment. If you mean the invitation sincerely, you'll find a way of reexpressing it more invitingly, e.g. by pointing out that you are a member. -- Hoary (talk) 05:33, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reading the Admin Notice Board....[edit]

I was reading some comments made about Screambloodygore667, saying he's trying to uphold the glory of metal and saying "that's rarely a good thing". Just a word of advice, be careful where you say that. I mean, I'm not trying to say I'll become a sudden vandal here, but if you indeed are a metal fan, I'd think you'd want to attack the problem with a different approach (I'm not just saying you specifically, just admins in general). I have a few ideas of how to work it, being a HUGE metal fan myself. Although the Venom post was a bit overboard, he might have just been having a bad day. Besides, I could say that he certainly has a point on that, although not very artfully stated.

BTW, this Rodhullandemu guy is really asking for it by making comments like that. Metal fans do not take that sort of stuff well, and I don't think people want to provoke each other. Screambloodygore667 might have some useful information, but if you piss him off, he won't be so willing to share. Again, none of this is directed specifically at you, but it's just a thought.

Speedy deletion of Image:4.13 Dream.jpg[edit]

A tag has been placed on Image:4.13 Dream.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is a redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:4.13 Dream.jpg|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

I appreciate your enthusiasm to bring this article to the rest of wikipedia in good faith, but next time ask the user who is hosting it under their user space. Further, next time, use the "move" function to carry the article –and it's history – over to it's new location. You've essentially cut off the history of edits made by Skomorkh and others. I recommend asking a user with administrative powers to move the history as well now. Please follow the instructions for doing so here: Wikipedia:How to fix cut-and-paste moves.

Please visit the project page to see our new look and check out some of our helpful new features, such as the Assessment Department and the Collaboration of the week. There are also a number of tasks on our Things to do page that you may be interested in helping with.

We are currently holding a roll call to help gauge how many active project members we have. Please visit the project's talk page and add your signature to the roll sheet to express your continued interest in the project. Also, if you have not already done so, please take a minute to add your name to the Participants page along with a brief summary of your punk-related interests, so that other project members will be better able to collaborate with you. If you do not add your signature to the roll sheet by November 30, 2008 your name will be moved to our list of inactive members. We may also take the liberty of removing the project userbox from your userpage if it appears there, to prevent you from automatically appearing in Category:WikiProject Punk music members. Of course you are free to rejoin the project and re-add the userbox at any time if you would like to become active in the project again.

Thank you and we hope you will continue to support WikiProject Punk music!

Proposed deletion of Barrave, Wyoming[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Barrave, Wyoming, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Probably a hoax, but even if real, an unsourced and unnotable thing that bored people in high school tend to do

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Anarchism in Argentina[edit]

Hi Zazaban, Thanks for your contribution to my draft about Anarchism in Argentina and sorry it took me so long to write you. I'm really glad that something is finally happening to the draft, since I haven't been able to do much in the last couple of months.

I wanted to make sure the article is well-referenced to reliable, third-party sources, preferably academic or journalist writings. So I was wondering if you could cite where you got the information from that you added. Also, could you maybe make it a little bit clearer how the events that you described pertain to anarchism more directly. Although most anarchists generally support the grassroots democratic processes of the past years, it certainly wouldn't be right to call them anarchist per se. In other words, I doubt that a majority of the participants would label themselves as anarchists.

Thanks a lot, --Carabinieri (talk) 17:59, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Medieval Iceland article needs to be cleaned up a bit.[edit]

The article references anarcho-capitalism too much,but it should not. This site has some pretty good primary sources on how the economy of Medieval Iceland was more of a non-capitalist/feudal system.

Nietzsche[edit]

Thanks for the support on the Nietzsche work. Hopefully we can improve more sections and cut down on the original research. I think that page needs to become much clearer (especially the philosophy sections) so that lay readers can easily understand what Nietzsche's philosophy was all about. I find the attempts to explain Nietzsche with the original research to be poor and unclear. These concepts can be explained in more simple terms, and with less obscure rhetoric. CABlankenship (talk) 00:20, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I also want to note that my first edits were terrible, and it was due to your suggestions that I ultimately changed the style from what you rightfully called an "essay" to a more source driven work. At the time, I hadn't read wiki's guidelines on original research. CABlankenship (talk) 00:24, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I anticipate some trouble over the impending section on Nietzsche and Women. I'm going to wait on that aspect till after other areas are improved, because that one is going to take a long discussion to work out the best way to present these points. Maybe we can start a discussion section on this and hash it out soon. The more rabid Nietzsche fans seem quite determined to prevent this aspect of Nietzsche from being presented. I see Nietzsche as a sort of Picasso-figure: a great and brilliant artist who suffered from some severe personality flaws. In this, I basically agree with Kaufmann's assessment. I think some people want to create a highly idealized portrait of Nietzsche, removing the warts and even obscuring his triumphs to some degree with vacuous and hard-to-read rhetoric. The attempts to make up stories to apologize for what I see as his obvious contempt for women strikes me as most odd. Surely, like Picasso, we can admire his brilliant art and craftsmanship, while also deploring his more vulgar views. I guess some people don't see it this way. Regardless, I'm ready for compromise as I'm sure they'll have citations to back up their (in my view) ridiculous arguments against Nietzsche being hostile to women. There are a ton of shameless apologists for Nietzsche in print (Derrida), most from the postmodern crowd. It's really harmed Nietzsche scholarship in my opinion, as modern work on Nietzsche is far less sound and sober than the classical scholarship from Kaufmann, Commons, and Russell, and considerably less sound that moderns who write in the classical format such as Dennett.

Anarchism as a type of corporatism[edit]

Greeting Z,

It's true. Anarchism is a type of corporatism, not in the commercial corporation sense, but rather in the corporate group sense. This is to speak of it as a political culture. Other political cultures are a response to this in varying degrees. Anarchist cultures have values that are common among a small group that makes it possible to get along without government, etc. That's why it is called a form of corporatism.

This is supported by William Stewart in Understanding Politics. At some point I will have more on it. Be well, Pontiff Greg Bard (talk) 22:42, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

References for Satanism article[edit]

I do not understand why you marked each of those topics as requiring a reference - almost all of them were linked to an appropriate wikipedia article which provided references.Jimhoward72 (talk) 06:14, 27 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So, would simply copying the references from the relevant articles suffice? For example, in the article on Stanisław Przybyszewski, it says he was interested in Satanism, and it lists some of his German books relating to satanism. Someone who goes to that site will see the same references. It isn't common Wikipedia practice to provide additional references when they are already mentioned in the linked article, is it?

The AI/IAF/AFI has renewed interest in wikipedia. I hope that ochlarchists like Zazaban and Skomorokh can be more matter of fact this time! The AI is certainly not a "hoax/spam/non-notable; worth keeping an eye on for quality control", see my arguments below. AI/IAF/AFI is significantly the largest anarchist organization in the world. This is based on reliable, independent third party sources, and I hope thus that my scientifical contributions will not be deleted.

My edit of characterization of Youth International Party[edit]

You said you appreciate the sentiment of YIP not being anti-authoritarian, in that they opposed the United States of America which is neither an authoritarian or totalitarian dictatorship but objected to me describing them as anarchist and saying that as anarchists are about "destruction and mayhem." I rescind that comment, anarchism is more about opposing any form of government because Anarchists think that government oppresses people and we should all have maximum personal freedom. Can you at least change it to something besides anti-authoritarian when describing the Youth International Party? If not anarchist, perhaps anti-establisment or something similar.

egoism[edit]

hi. i havent finished all of the ego and its own to tell you the truth. anyway if you explain me what i can help in we might see. In individualist anarchism i wanted to help in correcting the USA bias and the market anarchism bias.--Eduen (talk) 07:42, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

well looks like we have been in similar roads. it happens that i started the comunismo egoista article in spanish wikipedia. there there is also one "anarcho" capitalist guy (who might be one of ten or five such oddities in all latin america). Seems in the article you are proposing you might want to talk about Bob Black proposal of "marxist stirnerism" or "stirnerist marxism" and also the nice essay The right to be greedy: Theses On The Practical Necessity Of Demanding Everything by the american situationist collective For ourselves and things like the spanish proposal of Yomango which became a little popular in other anarchist autonomist circles in latin america.--Eduen (talk) 07:59, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

But also i think an important point is how the individualism in the english wikipedia article doesnt seem to be connected with something associated a lot in all times since classic athens which is of course HEDONISM. also in spain aparently individualist anarchism was very close to the naturism movement associated with nudism and ecologism (indeed something close to current anarcho primitivism as we point put in our current proposal of a new anarchism article for spanish wikipedia) to be too occupied about things like markets and strange monetary mutualist schemes as the american individualists seem to concetrate on.--Eduen (talk) 08:09, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to check a nice essay on egoism i found [http://www.greenanarchy.org/index.php?action=viewwritingdetail&writingId=184 Egoism by John Beverley Robinson] in the magazine Green anarchy. It is interesting in the fact that it presents the many sides of egoism such as self interest (herbert spencer), hedonism (epicurus, cyreanicism and i might add the great Charles Fourier), antiidealism (people like Bob Black and Hakim Bey emphasize this being anti ideas and metaphysics of ocurse all of this is Stirner derived) and self interest which can manifest as reciprocity. And so seems maybe "natural rights" liberalism emphazises self interest but since it is an economicistic ideology ends up entangled in classical and neoclassical economics and so can only defend semi aristocratic and bourgoise types and aspiring yuppies. Anyway these social clases end up funding neoliberal think thanks.

This ideology of course ends up ignoring or not being able to process pyschological, existential side of a person experience. a conception of the individual more in accord with humanism and its emphasis on subjectivity and creativity as it is related to the arts. liberals of the lockean type want to surrender this two things to capitalistic money accumulation (which can mix very well with puritanism as Max Weber showed) whereas anti idealist types can question this metaphysics of money and doesnt care about far away and in a big way metaphysical Stock markets and instead can concentrate on things like affects as bohemians and contercultural types actually do.

So indeed what do you get if you expose egoism to someone in the working clases or what most of the people in the world belong Marx's lumpenproletariat}?. Well indeed many people in these social groups actually do practice egoism but of course we have to establish the difference between someone like Pablo Escobar mafias and street gangs for example and someone like Joaquin Murrieta or Pancho Villa.

For the purpose of our articles i think we have to include this experiences of lower class and bohemian desire to self fulfillment or anyway having to survive. This can only end up motivating class war sentiments and affinity groupings which of course dont end up looking like labor unions or marxist-leninist parties. --Eduen (talk) 18:41, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

i liked the idea i think i read in some essay by Crimethinc which spoke about the fact that they engaged in activism because they actually enjoyed it and not because of notions like revolutionary discipline that marxists leninists sects adhere to (so called proffessional revolutionaries as lenin wanted). So thats how egoistical activism and social egoism comes out. i enjoy activism because it can be a social activity of face to face mutual realization very close to just having a group of friends, but also because i hate everyday life contexts and a social order based on hierarchies and jobs.

I do find strange the big emphasis you have on Benjamin Tucker. Although he embraced egoism, he never really abandoned Prouhonite mutualism with all its petit bourgoise glorification of small commerce, craftsmanship, and the pride of "living of ones work". In my article i talked about people like the Great Charles Fourier, Paul Lafargue (The Right to Be Lazy). At he end i cite the Willful disobedience essay " From individualism, I take the primacy of the freedom of every individual to determine the conditions of her or his existence in free association with others as the central aim of revolutionary struggle and also a recognition of the necessity of individuals to begin to reappropriate life here and now in revolt against this society to the extent to which they are able." "Thus, I recognize the necessity of class analysis and an active critique of the economy. I see class struggle as the struggle against proletarianization—i.e., the struggle against our dispossession of the capacity to determine the conditions of our existence in terms of our real desires and aspirations." @Since this aim of freeing every individual to be able to create her or his life as s/he sees fit requires that everyone have equal access to all that is necessary for this project of self-realization, it is necessary to destroy the institutions that prevent this free access. Thus, the destruction of the institutions of property and of commodity exchange, and consequently of work—that separation of the activity through which one gets the necessities of existence from life itself—is a necessary aim of revolutionary struggle. Only in this way can new social relations based on free association without hierarchy or privilege come to exist. This is communism as I understand it." MY PERSPECTIVES —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eduen (talkcontribs) 20:05, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I dont know if you are aware of this article called individual reclamation. i think it gives our articles lots of base.

american individualist anarchism[edit]

hi. ive been exposed to an interesting argument about american individualist anarchism and its "exceptionalism". anarchopedias in italian and french argue that american individualist anarchism can be divided in two currents. one is market anarchism and the other is so called post left anarchism and anarcho-primitivism. and they suggest that even though people like zerzan and bob black are egoists, nevertheless they have not used the label individualist anarchists because they dont want association with the robard fans(how is that liberal called i dont remember). they also suggest that bob black and hakim bey actually are closer to french individualist anarchists. i will have to agree. a nice contemporary french individualist anarchist is hedonism theorist Michel Onfray. also i know of the strong influence in spanish individualist anarchism of naturism. of course naturism is more than just nudism. it is also things like vegetarianism, ecologism. this is why one spanish anarchist article on libertarian naturism in spain says that perhaps the current anarchist position of anarcho-primitivism has an evident predecessor in libertarian naturism. libertarian naturism was also present in french individualist anarchism.

anyway if you know more on this lines please tell me in order to contribute for the individualist anarchism article. --Eduen (talk) 01:59, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

well. that will heve to be said there. but actually i will do more than that, outside wikipedia.--Eduen (talk) 02:15, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]


french anarchism, situationism and postlef anarchy[edit]

check out this title

If one will have to find a french precedent of situationism it will have to be this crazy individualist illegalists. But anyway hakim bey and bob black seem they are just updating people like Zo d’Axa and Albert Libertad. they were to eager to live in order to wait for a revolution which will bring them hapiness. emile armand, he critizised the illegalists but actually in retrospective he seems like a proto-hippie who while critizing illegalist violent actions nevertheless dedicated to expanding free love/promiscuity texts and actually organized orgies seems while also promoting nudism.

for the puropose of the individualist anarchism article, we have to make evident this connection between french individualist anarchism and current postleft anarchy. now of course i will continue developing on other things like the egoist feminist Dora Marsden and egoist gay John Henry Mackay.

all i can say for now is this. It was a cruel thing to let the individual anarchism page be dominated by neoliberalism.--Eduen (talk) 08:28, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

i think it belongs there and actually i think in the past it used to be mentioned in this article before they took it out and turned this article in a USA biased article about mostly american neoliberalism trying to reclaim roots in american individualist anarchism. the references will have to be strenghtened. but for example theres the murray bookchin debate with bob black where bookchin accuses bob black, hakim bey and zerzan of "lifestylism" check Social Anarchism or Lifestyle Anarchism: An Unbridgeable Chasm. this was nothing but the classical debate between social anarchism and individualist anarchism. illegalism and people like emile armand and albert libertad used to be accused of the same thing by anarchosyndicalists who had a strong moralistic outlook. check that book here http://libcom.org/library/social-anarchism--lifestyle-anarchism-murray-bookchin there theres a section called 2. Individualist Anarchism and Reaction Bookchin thre says:"Hardly any anarcho-individualists exercised an influence on the emerging working class. They expressed their opposition in uniquely personal forms, especially in fiery tracts, outrageous behavior, and aberrant lifestyles in the cultural ghettos of fin de si?cle New York, Paris, and London. As a credo, individualist anarchism remained largely a bohemian lifestyle, most conspicuous in its demands for sexual freedom ('free love') and enamored of innovations in art, behavior, and clothing."

Yes. all in line with the behavior promoted by people like, zoe daxa, emile armand and others. for the liek of albert libertad. raavachol, bonnot gang:

"It was in times of severe social repression and deadening social quiescence that individualist anarchists came to the foreground of libertarian activity -- and then primarily as terrorists. In France, Spain, and the United States, individualistic anarchists committed acts of terrorism that gave anarchism its reputation as a violently sinister conspiracy. Those who became terrorists were less often libertarian socialists or communists than desperate men and women who used weapons and explosives to protest the injustices and philistinism of their time, putatively in the name of 'propaganda of the deed.' Most often, however, individualist anarchism expressed itself in culturally defiant behavior. It came to prominence in anarchism precisely to the degree that anarchists lost their connection with a viable public sphere."

"More recent works on lifestyle anarchism generally sidestep Stirner's sovereign, all-encompassing 'I,' albeit retaining its egocentric emphasis, and tend toward existentialism, recycled Situationism, Buddhism, Taoism, antirationalism, and primitivism -- or, quite ecumenically, all of them in various permutations. Their commonalities, as we shall see, are redolent of a prelapsarian return to an original, often diffuse, and even petulantly infantile ego that ostensibly precedes history, civilization, and a sophisticated technology -- possibly language itself -- and they have nourished more than one reactionary political ideology over the past century."

Here you have an connection with late xix century and early XX century individualist anarchism with post left anarchy. another person critizised in that article by Bookchin is L. Susan Brown. Lets end this with this:"The bourgeoisie has nothing whatever to fear from such lifestyle declamations. With its aversion for institutions, mass-based organizations, its largely subcultural orientation, its moral decadence, its celebration of transience, and its rejection of programs, this kind of narcissistic anarchism is socially innocuous, often merely a safety valve for discontent toward the prevailing social order. With the Bey, lifestyle anarchism takes flight from all meaningful social activism and a steadfast commitment to lasting and creative projects by dissolving itself into kicks, postmodernist nihilism, and a dizzying Nietzschean sense of elitist superiority." later he critizised fith estate magazine, Later he evn calls these people "lumpens" "in a visceral and essentially mindless 'ecstatic' condition. T.A.Z., Fifth Estate, Anarchy: A Journal of Desire Armed, and lumpen 'zines' like Michael William's Stirnerite Demolition Derby"

"Black accuses Bookchin of moralism, which in post-left anarchism, refers to the imposition of abstract categories on reality in ways which twist and repress desires (as distinct from "ethics", which is an ethos of living similar to Friedrich Nietzsche's call for an ethic "beyond good and evil"), and of "puritanism", a variant of this. He attacks Bookchin for his Stalinist origins, and his failure to renounce his own past affiliations with what he himself had denounced as "lifestylist" themes (such as the slogans of May 1968). He claims that the categories of "lifestyle anarchism" and "individualist anarchism" are straw-men"

now check another reference. this is the french anarchopedia page on individualist anarchism

"Anarchistes individualistes contemporains Anne Archet Bob Black Hakim Bey Jean Victor Verlinde Michel Onfray"

italian anarchopedia says the following

"Queste peculiarità sono state evidenziate da Charles August Bontemps, il quale riferendosi ai francesi, parla di individualismo sociale (definizione già adoperata da Pierre Joseph Proudhon), considerando la proprietà e il mercato come dei “fantasmi stirneriani” da cui originano le idee oppressive, tendenti a sacrificare la libertà e l’integrità dell’individuo.

Questa doppia eredità (americana e francese), fa sì che alcuni anarchici americani, collaboratori della rivista (come Jason McQuin, Hakim Bey o Bob Black) rifiutino l’"etichetta" individualista, definendosi semplicemente "partigiani" dell’anarchia cosiddetta Post-Left Anarchy o, ancor meglio, “partigiani dell’anarchia"

the fact they dont call themselves individualist is because they dont want association with american neoliberalism movement even though they are stirnerist egoists and so they consider things like property and the market mere "fantasmi stirneriani" which wants to have sacrifices from the individual. --Eduen (talk) 23:03, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

check the individualist anarchism as i left it. mostl likely nihilo will come and edit it to keep it USA and neoliberalism centric. as you can see i created a different article for american individualist anarchism since we were getting the message "this page is..long" and so it was too long. as you can see i enlarged european individualism.

from this enlargement of the european part post left anarchy can be attached to older traditions of individualist anarchism as follows:

bob black, hakim bey and crimethinc to illegalism as a position of disrespect for private property, antiwork and antiorganization postions and individualistic direct action and to egoism as a position of disrespect to private property and antimethaphysics criticism

insurrectionary anarchism to french and italian illegalism and italian 19th centuty and early 20th century insurrectionalism all this supported on egoism, antiorganitationalism, and union of egoists/informal affinity groups

anarcho-primitivism to french and spanish naturism as individualist egoists anarchist green thought and criticism of mass society

the references for all this can be found in the references i provided to support the additions in european individualism. more references i will provide but now i want to go to sleep.

anyway you can also find a lot of support for the connection of eurupean individualist traditions and post left anarchy in the murray bookchin book Social Anarchism or Lifestyle Anarchism - An Unbridgeable Chasm you might want to give this text a nice look and you will find all this connections. post left anarchists are called by bookchin individualists lifestylists. --Eduen (talk) 08:42, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

hi. i dont want to think you think "anarco"capitalists in the USA dont have anything to do with the republican party. anyway you can check this guy. Now the reason the edition of the article individualist anarchism looks like a war is because the two sides have strong political agendas and i didnt expect it to be a smooth affair although i hoped it would be.--Eduen (talk) 23:47, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

how sad is to hear you talk like that. anyway i gave my reasons in the discussion page in individualist anarchism so in some way we will have to come to an agreement or else keep on this way.--Eduen (talk) 00:06, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

well saying the word "neoliberalism" could be considered and insult but if something is named neoliberal it means it has that content and so it is perfectlly relevant to the discussion. is not like im calling anyone stupid bastard or something.--Eduen (talk) 00:18, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

neoliberalism referes to those who adhere to post neoclassical economics and so thats murray rothbard and "anarcho" capitalism. and now as far as nihilo, i knwo him a long time from wikipedia in spanish and know the kinds of things he defends and where he stands. i responded that way since hes trying to appear as a some sort of saint of neutrality while he accused me before of trying to make the article in line with anarchocommunism. it is likely that in the USA they dont use the word neoliberalism too much since there you call liberals what in the rest of the word are called "socialdemocrats". if thats the case, well i dont live and wasnt born in the USA. in the UK for example liberals are liberals and social democrats are socialdemocrats. and anarchocapitalism is neoliberalism just as milton friedman is a neoliberal. both friedman and rothbard adhere to post neoclassical economics. for example adam smith or david ricardo or that molinaria are not neoliberals, they are liberals. in wikipedia in spanish nihilo contributed to the article of "anarcho"capitalism and called it also "anarcho" liberalism.--Eduen (talk) 00:40, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

anyway. in order to avoid this war i think we might have to ask for Wikipedia:Dispute resolution. i dont care about fighting with anyone. what i care for is a good non biased article. seems if we keep this way nihilo is going to get thrown out of wikipedia since hes been alerted and blocked many times and received a final warning because of vandalism.--Eduen (talk) 01:12, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

oh. well just living my life. ill come back tomorrow. im too busy right now and in the past days ive had parties, obligations, meeting friends and family and other things. anyway as i left i think the best solution is dispute resolution.--Eduen (talk) 07:48, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

News from Bucketheadland[edit]

News from Bucketheadland Issue 5 - April 27, 2009



post left anarchy[edit]

well. bookchin says the following "Consciously or not, many lifestyle anarchists articulate Michel Foucault's approach of 'personal insurrection' rather than social revolution, premised as it is on an ambiguous and cosmic critique of power as such rather than on a demand for the institutionalized empowerment of the oppressed in popular assemblies, councils, and/or confederations" well al this is in line with stirner view of personal revolt similar to an existetialist.

."Lifestyle, like individualist, anarchism bears a disdain for theory, with mystical, and primitivistic filiations that are generally too vague, intuitional, and even antirational to analyze directly. They are more properly symptoms than causes of the general drift toward a sanctification of the self as a refuge from the existing social malaise. Nonetheless, largely personalistic anarchisms still have certain muddy theoretical premises that lend themselves to critical examination." all this is in line with french individualism as well as humanists like the great Michel de Montaigne.

So these are all continuities with individualist anarchism. this has to be explained even if the neoliberals dont want to recognize.

Now the problem is that the name "post left anarchism" has been mainly theorized by americans while what influences people like bob black, hakim bey, john zerzan or wolfi landchester seems mainly are european currents such as situationism, italian insurrectionalism, french illegalism and french poststructuralism not people like benjamin tucker or josiah warren but neither han ryner, emile armand, albert libertad or zoe daxa. as far as the "boston anarchists" seems they were mainly mutualist economists and they really dont seem to want to go beyond petit bourgoise non capitalist schemes and lifestyles

so this is why the only ones who today claim the legacy of those people are american neoliberal "anarcho" capitalists who are just as obsessed with economics and who i have only seen them here in their pictures here in wikipedia wearing suits.

ive never read bob black, hakim bey or wolfi landchester naming people like han ryner, emile armand, albert libertad, zoe d axa or renzo novatore but the situationism that they drank from has the french and italian precedents named before. what i remember though once is hakim bey speaking about having some sixties conterculture roots. hakim bey so speaks about temporary autonomous zones and emile armand and albert libertad were involved in anarchist communes and other types of similar schemes (if you can understand french check milieux_libres) which can be translated as "free surroundings". And so french individualists agree with hakim bey on their disdain for revolution since they opt for looking changes and alternative experiences in the now instead of waiting for the revolution.

all of those conections and agreements can be made.

now for references theres in "Individualisme anarchiste" in french anarchopedia

"Anarchistes individualistes contemporains: Anne Archet, Bob Black, Hakim Bey, Jean Victor Verlinde, Michel Onfray." "In France, the philosophy of Stirner develops itself in a rich compost of a long tradition of social struggles. Whereas individualism stirnérien transplants himself to the United States on a liberal support and capitalist, this same individualism transplants himself in France on a more revolutionary support and decidedly anticapitaliste. Individualism anarchist in France maintains the social and egalitarian preoccupations that don't appear at the american "anarcho"-capitalists (the"" are not mine by the way). Some anarchists as Charles-Augustus Bontemps are going to speak of social individualism, while considering the Market and the Property as ghosts stirnérienses, or as oppressive ideas that require the sacrifice of the individual.

This double inheritance results in that American anarchists, collaborators of the american magazine Anarchy, a Journal of Desire Armedd (as Jason McQuinn, Hakim Bey or Bob Black) refuse the individualistic label even though their thought goes back to the thoguth of french individualist anarchists, mainly in order to distance themselves from american libertarians and "anarcho"-capitalists. They see themselves as partisans post-leftist anarchy (Post-Left Anarchy) or anarchy, simply." i translated this last part using an electronic trnaslator so chekc the grammar.

now from "anarco-individualismo" in italian anarchopedia

"American anarchic individualism is divided in two sides today: the libertarian (many of these are active today in the circle of ecologism and anarcho-primitivism as in Theodore Kaczynski, John Zerzan, John Moore etc.) and the anarco-capitalists (n.d.r is clear that to define the anarco-capitalism as a current within anarchism is forcing it)."

as you can see "anarcho" capitalism everywhere is not recognized as anarchism but as radical liberalism. as far as post left anarchy you can see the italians recognize zerzan as an individualist and later they say:

"This double inheritance (American and French), show that some American anarchists, collaborators of this magazine anarchy: a journal of desire armed (as Jason McQuin, Hakim Bey or Bob Black) ' refuse the label individualist, defining each other as simply partisan of the so-called Post-Left Anarchy or, still better, “partisan of anarchy.”

now the situation in the spanish speaking world is mainly recognition of post left anarchism but in latin american individualism had almost no adherents. from a debate in wikipedia in spanish i remember that spanish anarchist with which i was debating with didnt recognize or know about "post left anarchism" but did recognize bey, black zerzan. and as i remember i first found out about anarchist naturism because one spanish collaborator there wanted to speak about it in the anarchism article and mentioned that it was an antecedent to current anarcho-primitivism.

dutch anarchoepdia also mentions hakim bey and bob black as individualist anarchists and also Wolfi Landstreicher. they say they mainly adhere to the positions of Max Stirner. i really dont have a dutch-english translator. "Stirners ideeën inspireerden met name de libertaire anarchist Georges Palante en hebben ook invloed op recentere groen-anarchistische denkers als Wolfi Landstreicher en Bob Black. Deze auteurs zetten zich af tegen anarchisme als (linkse) politieke ideologie en stellen dat ook klassieke linkse organisatievormen als vakbonden en federaties onderdrukkend zijn voor het individu. Ook Hakim Bey kan worden gezien als 'post-links' anarchist." in http://dut.anarchopedia.org/individualistisch_anarchisme

german anarchopedia http://ger.anarchopedia.org/Libert%C3%A4rer_Individualismus translates the same thing from french and italian. As you can see in Europe they put bey and Blak and the others in individualist anarchism.

in french again in http://wapedia.mobi/fr/Anarchisme_individualiste#3. they say 3. Anarchistes individualistes contemporains: Wolfi Landstreicher, Bob Black, Hakim Bey, Jean Victor Verlinde"

hakim bey cites renzo novatore in the text of temporary autonomous zone in apendix c

"Already the foreboding sky grows dark and silent!"

--Renzo Novatore Arcola, January, 1920 --Eduen (talk) 06:43, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Essay[edit]

I oppose to make an essay of irrelevant issues or put less relevant issues over the most important ones. I oposses to that kind changes like Jadabocho or PhilLiberty. Also many of Eduen editions are in fact trying to delete the importat issues of anarcho-indivudalist for that HE believes or he invents that are most important. He believe we are talking about poetry and his favorite fanzines and not about a political doctrine.

Another point, there was an user that put a lot of redundants categories in ID article, and he only have one reference of an article published in MySpace (!). I beleve he was promoting HIS ideas and not encyclopedical content. He was putting a "dennunce" message in my disscusion, but I believe he is a soft kind of troll -I`m not sure about it, but he haven't refferences for his changes, so I was right reverting him-. I don't continue reverting him only becasuse I was tired of that illogical user. --Nihilo 01 (talk) 21:03, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

like i told you. hes already famous in the internet for these things check this out Anarquismo en Wikipedia: la invención de una mentira.. some of his edits i think qualify as vandalism since hes erasing referenced parts and as you can see "anarcho" capitalism i didnt and other people didnt erased it either. he wants the article to be biased he will keep on that way. i think a new unjustified edition which is referenced and not discussed should be reported as vandalism and if he gets thrown out since he already has a last warning is his choice.--Eduen (talk) 22:30, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I Know a Wikipedia in Spanish user, Eea or Eduen, who is a wikiwarrior against market-anarchism, I believe that is the reason he need to make this "anti-market" or "anti-libertarian" essay in english (without acredited sources, a with a lot of POV). I don't wanted to say this, because I believe in another Wikipedia -this one- Eea will abandon his famous essays -that in Wikipedia in Spanish always are deleted for non-neutral and original source- I really hoped that he would change and abandon personal attacks and diffmations.

Anyway, in English there are more people and books who know a lot about anarcho-individualism, and have make a better work (before I edited in the article, and before Eduen essay). Zarzaban, that kind of attacks, anti-wikipedians flames are common forms to attacks neutral editors of Spanish language Wikipedia from militant o activists organizations or even extremists that are angry with neutrality and other Wikipedia's politics. I only say this because in Wikipedia in Spanish some of the most active Wikipedians, like me, have been victims of these kinds of fundamentalist attacks. --Nihilo 01 (talk) 00:27, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should file a Wikipedia:Dispute resolution requests. Nihilo say: "I Know a Wikipedia in Spanish user, Eea or Eduen, who is a wikiwarrior against market-anarchism". Sorry for pointing out how nerd/friki that word "wikiwarrior" sounds. I denounced him in wikipedia for insane ridicolous obsession but so did too many people from many countries as you can see in Anarquismo en Wikipedia: la invención de una mentira.. And so to avoid this friki wars i propose we file the request together. i have too much life in the outside world to really want to spend too much time dealing with someone like that.

oh, the article that they erased me in wikipedia in spanish was egoismo comunista.

anyway, i also thought of asking you if you might want to write together with me a nice article in english on individualist anarchism in order to show how complex and rich individualist currents such as those in france, italy and spain were. it seems those people like emile armand, han ryner or zoe d axa lived lated and today in things like hippies, punks, beatniks, situationists, ravers, etc. this incident showed me how sad is the knowledge in the USA and perhaps canada (wendy mc elroy hahahaha) of how rich and subversive individualist anarchism was and so perhaps many american anarchists dont want any association or interest in individualist anarchism because they mistake it for "anarcho" capitalism or as it will be called outside the USA and Wendy Mc elroy, neoliberalism. in the USA american anarchists apparently dont see renzo novatores [left wing futurism] (an avant garde movement usually associated only with fascism), or Emile Armand´s free love panflets and milieux libres as a part of individualist anarchism. Seems anarchy: a journal of desire armed has a sister in the french individualist anarchist publication L'En Dehors which is of course as individualist and anticapitalist and you might want it. Seems they also have published books on diverse subjects. In their website they feature many articles of hakim bey and seem to be fond of him. the difference is they call themselves individualist anarchists and not post left anarchists. seems L'En Dehors was the names of magazines edited by Zó dxa and emile armand in their times

now the point of it will be to show american and english speaking anarchists and not anarchists that individualist anarchism cant be reduced to "anarcho" capitalism.

more facts. emile armand and benjamin tucker from what i read somewhere in this research ive done for the wikipedia article were friends and exchanged letters. benjamin tucker after his bookstore burned moved to france. if the illegalists saw murray rothbard and his friends on the street, it is very likely they will do on them individual reclamation.

anyway, there goes my two proposals. --Eduen (talk) 02:41, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

individualist anarchism and anarcho-feminism[edit]

look this Lucifer the Lightbearer. seems it was edited by a guy called Moses Harman and concentrated in womens rights and free love. it it a usa magazine and wendy mcelroy writes and article on it. french anarkopedia says "En anglais : The Life of a Grand Old Liberal, The Freeman (1er février 1999). Article à lire avec prudence, étant écrit par une "anarcho"-capitaliste." indeed as you can see perhaps only american anarchists think "anarcho" capitalists are anarchists. as dora marsden will say, they are not anarchists but "archists".

anyway for the purpose of the article, it shows individualist anarchism also collaborated in the emergence of anarcho-feminism. also william godwins wife is Mary Wollstonecraft, famous feminist from the french revolution/age of enlightenment era who wrote a book on womens rights--Eduen (talk) 03:12, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alexandra David-Néel also a notorious french individulaist anarchists who wrote one of the best essays on anarchism and anarchy that ive read called Pour la vie. now she became later a buddhist and explorer and as the wikipedia page on her says apparently was well liked by the beats.--Eduen (talk) 03:23, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Check this citation from emile armand´s essay Anarchist Individualism as a Life and Activity i find myself in complete agreement with it.

"But in relation to those whose amorphism, ignorance or interest interferes with his living his life, the individualist feels himself a stranger. Moreover, inwardly he remains refractory -- fatally refractory -- morally, intellectually, economically (The capitalist economy and the directed economy, the speculators and the fabricators of single are equally repugnant to him.) The full consciousness that none of his acts can debase him inwardly is for him a sufficient criterion. Surely the essential thing is that he remains himself?"

looks like im a individualist anarchist. so is bob black and hakim bey. anyway this is another good reference for the article and seems when i have the time i will translate it into spanish.

Thus, it is either a mistake on your part or you were asked to revert by someone else. In either case, it shows a lack of judgment.

article on individualist anarchism[edit]

Hi. as far as the individualist anarchism article, i like the fact that theres a little more awareness of nihilo´s ways around here and of course that for some time the article is going to have a more or less balanced vision. Now just to tell you i will start Individualist anarchism in Europe just in case you might want to collaborate and also that i am collaborating in making the main Anarchism page less biased towards "anarcho" capitalism. Theres of course the specific issue that it gives "anarcho" capitalism too much space and attention (even in the introduction) and to other "non classical" recent anarchist currents such and inssurrectionalism or postleft anarchy only brief mentions.--Eduen (talk) 03:32, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I understand your position I don't oposse to some Eduen contributions (but I don't like his POV-bias, almost a "POV-hate", and his overdimmension of very marginal and oldfashioned "guettos"), but some opinions about importance of one things over another I believe are leftist myths, but I don't like rightist myths in replace.

I like a lot how differents factions have make a reasonable consensus here -among some years- about redaction, space, images, etc, I believe that is very good for all and very realistic about the heterogenius nature of anarchism and about the former and current relevance of some schools of thought and their impact in open society. In few words, I very agree with the current consensus, like almost all wikipedians, and is a waste of time to repeat problems about already soluted issues (Ne bis in idem).--Nihilo 01 (talk) 00:44, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

that´s nice this egoist anarchism article. as far as me contributing here, well. i got tired of that nerd, nihilo. as far as discussing rationally was impossible and as i spent more time in those edit wars i started to see myself closer to him and his aparently pathetic null social life and life in the outside world since he seems he only lives in the internet all day in both spanish and english wikipedias. after i read a feral faun article i saw that war rather pointless as i decided to dedicate even more time to exploration of the world and of myself.

i will leave some comments. in the individualist anarchism article in europe i left some sources who deepen analysis in stirner´s influence in places such as france and spain. there you have to mention emile armand, renzo novatore and john henry mckay and spanish and french individualist anarchists lifetylists as murray bookchin will say.

also theres two good reasons why you can be a stirnerian communist. the first is that you reject private property as one more metaphysical "ghost" which the egoist can chose whether to respect or not. the second is that stirner´s "union of egoists" calls for convergences of individuals in which no one in subordinated and thus this calls for a lack of hierarchies such as social clases. union of egoists is stirners vision of anarchy.

this sentence is problematic for me "Egoist anarchists generally reject notions of natural rights expounded by liberal economics, but reject traditional communist ideas about property and resources belonging to all of society also, presenting a view of property that is neither communist nor individualist". i dont see how private property is nessesarely the only view on property reconciliable with individualism. i think thats a liberal prejudice. as stirner shows, his "extreme" individualism shows one can steal someone else on individualist grounds and in that way destroying the notion of private property alltoghether. also if i am an individualist and something like agrarian reform expropiations is in my personal interest and that involves having a rich landowner being expropiated in order that i might have some piece of land and also taking away power from someone who subbordinates my life were i live. so in this way it might not be communistic (totally) but it cannot be opposed totally to all kinds of individualist positions. the individual landowner will side with "natural rights" while the individual poor peasant will justify and support private property violation.--Eduen (talk) 00:33, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • You could help a lot with creating an article on Dean Flynn and/or Jason Crew. Both are award winners and therefore entitled to get an own article in WP. With Ross Hurston it might be a little bit more difficult, as he did not win an award yet. Of course he deserves it, as he deflowered Tyler Saint in Trunks 5 onscreen.

Homosexuality[edit]

Hi, Zazaban. The new lead text in Homosexuality is being aggressively challenged by an editor who feels it is faulty. When you get a chance, could you swing by here and here and help build consensus? Thanks. —Scheinwerfermann T·C21:30, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Makhno[edit]

Dude, listen. Where did you get an idea that Makhno faced off Skoropadsky and forced him out of Ukraine as well as German forces? It was not really that simple. It was not a war between Skoropadsky and Makhno. And the head of Ukrainian State cannot occupy Ukraine, because he is the head of the state. Did you read your article? Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 05:30, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, understood:). And the other stuff is more-less OK, but it needs some grammar polishing majorly. About him fighting against the Ukrainian State, it was because the political goal of that government was to support the wealthy land-owners which contradicted the political views of Makhno, of course. But Makhno did not fight the guy for being pro-National. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 05:38, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
