Re: The National-Anarchist Litmus Test

Keith,

Whatever you want, dude, but in the “transitive property” quote from me, you may notice that I’m objecting to the guilt-by-association argument, not endorsing it. So your parody of a slippery slope argument (as if I were endorsing that kind of reasoning, rather than objecting to it) seems like an odd response.

Bay Area National Anarchist,

Speaking as one irrelevant subculturalist to another, I’ll mention that I have a litmus test of my own. When someone starts talking about “irrelevant intellectuals” as if it were a bad thing to be one, I know that there is probably something wrong both with their ideas about both relevance and intellect.
