This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Heh. Insightful and funny. Funny, since we don't have any real

socialists in the USA.  But as a non-American, perhaps you were not 

kidding about that?


The "social contract" is an interesting concept to invoke. Perhaps

some people are socialized to feel it is their civic and social duty 

to correct all instances of wrongful thinking and to keep correcting 

until a change to rightful thinking has been achieved.
