A Man Who Hacked Marxist

That's you..
Here is where my article is based upon.
His this particular article is not exactly a manifesto of conversion from Marxist to kind of social liberalism though I think he is eager to get rid of his old idea.
Anyway... He is a man who hacked Marxist.
The idea of J.J.Rousseau and Karl Marx is when it comes to how to see the world, it was very similar indeed. But Karl Marx acknowledges the role of violence in the wake of social change -revolution, J.J. Rousseau never admit anyone being resort to violence. In that I have been admiring J.J.Rousseau and I prefered reading his writings more. Social Contract is a perfect example of his achievement. Anyway...
We've got lots of things to learn from the thought of not Marx but Marxist Hacker 42. His thought might be crystalised by the term like ' Think globally, act locally' or 'Direct Democracy and the spirit of local autonomy', He signifies the importance of the community value above all of the values, he is very liberal in politics -the insistence of direct democracy is not unattainable but simply achievable and very conservative in economy- he signifies the role of local economy first and foremost, and are very important to keep their folks healthy and normal, meaningful to their lives.
Did you know that J.J.Rousseau was also a strong advocate of direct democracy, thanks to the tradition he left in his native country- Swiss Federations, the direct democracy is still there.

Seems maybe I should- I may be missing something important. I like the idea of achieving it with nonviolence.My main inspiration right now is the Blessed Dorthy Day- a woman well on the way to being a left wing Catholic Saint, even if this current Pope probably won't canonize her. Catholic Workers of the World promoted distributism- the idea that local workers are damaged by government subsidizing of shipping, and that a better job is done by the workman or craftsman who knows and likes his customers personally due to the very real human connection of friendship.--Two chances to become a Dictator- and Bush blew them both!

No, no.. You don't have to read his books. Obviously what is important is not what books we read but what we came up with from what we read or experienced.
J.J.Rousseau was a great read but all were taken place in my early twenties, if you start reading his books now, your thought might fall into just his another copy. If you achieved your thought without reading his books, that's very good.--Ancient Greek Philosophers -18c Enlightenment Thinkers -Slashdotters
