Ruthless Communism Is Necessary
by Phil Ingram “Only a Hector can have a premonition that he will fall by the hand of an Achilles.” Coercive measures taken by society in individual cases are often hard and brutally materialistic, but as scientific editors of Selecting Stones, our hatred and contempt for life under capitalism has always proven to be more […]
Woody Guthrie Today, and Woody Guthrie the Communist
July 15, 2012
by L. W. Denton Yesterday marked the 100th anniversary of the birth of legendary folk musician Woody Guthrie in Okemah, Oklahoma. Guthrie has long been a controversial figure in Oklahoma and elsewhere for the simple reason that he was a communist. Woody Guthrie is most famous for two things: First, that he wrote the song […]
The Dangers of Labor Leaders and Filmmakers: McCarthyism Revisited
June 15, 2012
by Patrick M. Dixon There were some misunderstandings that resulted from my previous article on the failings of the liberal understanding of McCarthyism and the Cold War. This forum was even mistaken for being a source of conservative commentary. Perhaps the appearance of Ron Paul and the Tea Party as frequently mentioned subjects may have […]
Occupy Tulsa Revisited, a follow-up on the Contradiction between Left and Right
March 25, 2012
by Lawrence McMahon My previous article, called “Occupy Tulsa and the Contradiction of Left and Right”, contained a blatant factual error concerning the workings of magnetism. My mistake. Opposite poles attract — rather than repel — one another. The principle of the dialectical unity of opposites still holds, however. The antagonism between two repellant magnets […]

There is nothing magical about the number 20. And yet, somehow, it all […]

December 18, 2011
Walking down the street, shortly after midnight on a Saturday, in one of the wealthier neighborhoods of Washington, DC, and what does one hear? A yuppie house party, a festive gathering of privileged upper-middle-class bureaucrats in their late twenties, all singing in unison to Rage Against the Machine. “Rally ‘round the family…” “With a pocket […]
Life Plus Ten: Is Selecting Stones Self-Righteous or Ruthless?
November 19, 2011
by Troy Clavileño As the great lumpenproletarian poet and gangster rapper Tupac Shakur used to do better than anyone else back in his vintage form, let’s go see what our enemies are talking about. Is Selecting Stones really science or is it just a lot of “bombastic, self-righteously hyperbolic, and profoundly disingenuous rhetoric”? “This sounds […]
Why Ron Paul is a crypto-Marxist, even if he doesn’t realize it
March 5, 2011
by Lawrence McMahon Everyone knows that Ron Paul always goes around talking about “revolutions.” Revolution this, revolution that. The fact that he talks about revolutions has nothing to do with why, as I will argue, Ron Paul’s thought it closer to Marxism than the illustrious congressman would care to realize. Rather, it is specifically how […]
