Craig you said, "Count me among the thousands who have read Marx & don't think Marxism is about freedom, not to mention dangerously misguided."
You're entitled to the opinion, but you'll agree that's hardly an argument. The quote from Arlo you responded to wasn't an argument either, but Arlo's point was about "calling out embarrasing crap" not arguing the case for Marx ideas. I'm sure Arlo would be interested to debate, once we've shoveled the crap out of the way.
