Your lack of a sense of humor for taking him seriously on those things is
telling of how right he is!

Man, light up! He OBVIOUSLY is being jesty when he says those things. Its
like the David Rovics' song "Vanguard".

If you get mad, its because its about you.

On the other hand, some of us actually laugh with them. We have a sense of
irony and humor, you see.

But I'll rather worship him than Bob Avakian, Jack Barnes, or whoever it is
you are worshiping now. Anyways, I don't belive in gods, so its a moot
point.

I just like to defend MM in what he is right, not attack him for the
particular shibolet that separates us. Unless we want to forget that before
he made millions, he was just a working class bloke, something very rare on
the left.

If you go to the street and speak to a worker, he will echo Moore more than
Moorehead, no matter his level of conciousness.
