The dead-end of contrarianism. Once upon a time there was LM, a group 
that evolved out of the Revolutionary Communist Party in Britain that 
embraced a "productivist" version of Marxism that involved defenses of 
fox-hunting, GMO, nuclear power, the right to smoke in pubs, and most 
egregiously the benefits of assimilating indigenous peoples into 
capitalist society (the original impetus for my study of indigenous 
society.) After LM folded because of repressive libel laws in Britain 
(they had published an article debunking--correctly--the claim of a Serb 
concentration camp), they re-emerged as Spiked online. At this point, 
the Marxism had been dropped and nothing was left except the 
contrarianism mixed with an even more pronounced libertarianism. Sad really.
