1989 was not the end of utopias,…not the end of communism, but..the unleashing of the great utopia of liberal capitalism… And September 11 is the answer to it; if it means anything at all, it means..this utopia is today dead. https://t.co/IgtNaAxolJ

no matter how radical our anti-capitalism, solutions are sought solely through those democratic mechanisms which themselves form part of the apparatuses of the ‘bourgeois’ state that guarantees the undisturbed reproduction of capital. In this ..sense,…the..enemy is…democracy
