RE: [Marxism] Timothy Leary



Physical exercise, chess, commercial television,
meditation, and marxist scholasticism are also
"distracting and escapist." I have also heard them all
described as "addictive." To lump all psychoactive
substances together and characterize them so tritely
seems hardly to do justice to an important subject.
