We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Not a pretty sight! Over at the Daily Kos, things are are, how can I put it – deflated. I followed their coverage on the basis that the longer it took to post and the more shrill the content, the better things were going.
Robert Reich looking like he’d just developed piles on the air, whilst trying to pretend that everything was going according to plan provoked deeply uncharitable thoughts in me. I like watching BBC coverage on occasions like this. You can rely on Nanny BBC to dig out scores of ‘independent’ collectivists to first announce their confidence in victory before squirming in the face of reality.
Has anyone seen Michael Moore lately?

Who Are We? The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.
We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

It’s nice to see that Kos still views the majority of Americans as his enemies. I can’t believe that people wonder how Kerry and the Dems lost this election, if Kos is in anyway representative of how the Democratic Party views those who don’t support it. Enemies? You’ll have to forgive me for thinking that the people who are killing our troops and plotting to crash airliners into buildings are our enemies, and not the people who peacefully participated in the democratic process.
I think Barack Obama and Harry Reid will have to set the tone for the Democratic Party in the Senate. God only knows what they’ll do in the House, but they certainly won’t wise up there. That ship sailed when Harold Ford Jr. got pushed aside for Pelosi, and it’s not coming back to port anytime soon.

Nothing irrational about it, Kos dudes… you just got your sanctimonious asses kicked
Do you mea “Stupid whit men” Moore?
