But Drake, have you actually called up your congressman or rep or written them |
or been to demostrations? |
Now whats this about supporting communist political parties? |

I must admit, I have never written my congressman. I have talked to the police |
and authorities about certain laws and policies, and I have pledged some |
support and volunteered to help a political anti-war movement here in St. |
Louis. I try to make people aware of what the government is doing.. I read |
quite a bit on things like that (In mainstream papers and underground |
alternatives like Socialist Labor Party newsletter,SANE mag, The St. Louis |
Arms Freeze forecast letter, People for the American Way, etc.). However I |
can't say that I am really active in politics though.. Oh, I also sent some |
cards in to Reagan opposing censorship movements, with some signatures from my |
school. Wee, big deal right? |
Later. |

ACTUALLY I WASN'T PLANNING ON GETTING A JOB WITH THE GOVERMENT... |
And KL, that (calling congressman, etc) was a list of what I have done...what |
did you think it was? Your confuuuusing me...whine |
Yeah being aware is definetly important ('The revoluion begins within' and all |
that)... try to read a equal amount of right wing & left wing periodicals so |
that I dont get locked into one viewpoint on an issue. |
But being nformed and not doing anything is no better then being totaly |
apathetic. |

We could unite the entire phreak community through Phrack as aq huge political |
party. Unfortunately, the majority of the phreak/hack world can't even vote, |
and currently that includes myself. Also, we would never have enough support |
in any one are to win any form of election but a lobbyist organization seems |
feasible. But you all know as well as I do that this will NEVER happen. |
So, anyway in general with the Class of '87 graduating in less than a month, |
who feels the phreak hack world is going to suffer greatly? |

Well, who knows. I'm sure there will always be good phreaks around. I will be |
doing less of course (Graduation, College, Work, etc) but that's no big loss. |
About political classifications, I liked the Nolan chart much better than |
traditional Left-Right wing grouping. Most people take left to mean communist |
and opposed to personal freedom. Some of the more famous left wing (radicals) |
are the Black Panthers from the late sixties, and others that I won't mention. |
Right wing conservative policies generally seem to be more realistic (but of |
course because they side with the current system and don't support radical |
change as left wing does). I think we do need change to prevent America from |
