Proudhon, communist?!?! Get lost. He was an anarchist. And yes, I like the anarchist philosophy…

Proudhon?

The invasion of the communists continues unabated.

Proudhon was against property. His approach makes sense.

I’m glad to see intellectuals bringing up the issue against IP. I’m criticized by many people when I tell them I an anti-copyright and anti-patents. Many of these people who criticize me don’t realize that they’re actually reducing their income from creation by offering the content cartels and the distribution cartels the power of using copyright laws for their monopoly powers.

Have you seen the bookstores lately? Have you seen the music stores, too? It’s all becoming just a pawn of the distribution cartels (RIAA, MPAA and the publisher’s ‘union’).

When is this book coming out?

Ironic that, in order to read the article, I have to pay for it. No thanks. Could you give us the gist?
