tax collectors on strike, that is a magnificent example of the people realizing they are worth more, and must fight alongside each other, not against. Power to the Proletariat.

THE WORKERS! UNITED! WILL NEVER BE DEFEATED!

I was on the team this year. As a relatively new comrade I found more inspiration in hearing Hossam talk about the recent struggles in Egypt than just about anything before. It brought home the absolute reality that socialism is possible and convinced me even more so than ever(not that I was exactly in any doubt over it before) of my stance as a revolutionary socialist! I seriously could not be prouder in having a hand in setting it up!

.. dude, Im not at your level..

but no one was arguing sincerity~ my point was no one should even care.

[Donsknotts]

You are just as sincere.

Baby steps of democracy in societies whose best interests(Gaza) are often overlooked in the scope global politics(corruption.) Growing a history of accountability through judicial law will improve the quality of life in the long term for everyone.

Hitler's, unique as every, moral twisted itself through populist scapegoating, and had no attachment to reality. A failure of the enlightened institutions(individuals).

[islamconstitution]

not understanding the difference between sincerity and actually knowing what your doing in politics is in fact what makes politics reactionary.

also dude, "if there's no democratic"?

come on man.. how did Hitler and i assume in your opinion Hamas come to power? democracy is probably the most reactionary form of official politics there is. its only curbed partly if you have a party system where parties actually represent ideologies that can work, not independent thinkers or technocrats/

[Donsknotts]

I promise you his sincerity.

If there's no democratic "past-tradition/acceptance/han­dovers" extreme positions align themselves within mainstream ideals and further polarize the opinions through reactionary politics, rather than organize & educated.

The Ego takes control.

I wish Arabwy was also conveied in english so that we could all understand and learn from this revolution and learn about our own selves. We are all working together in a united world today, aside from what we think and our diversities, our common aim is a better world.

I wish also project like tahrir academy was soon availabel in english. Keep the great work ! I will learn arab of course too for a thoroughtful understanding. Best regards. from italy.
