news was toasted and laughed at uproariously.
So, Jim, what is the ultimate point of trying to organize the working
class? Just providing the actually existing set of people some more
money and security, or changing the way they relate to the world. Is
the working class as it is pretty much ok? If so, why are we radicals
then?

Apparently Jim has NO idea of what he is talking about. Rather he is the stereotypical bandwagon tailgater just waiting to jump on the coat tails of his peers. Eyes wide shut is the mode considering the narrow-minded response given here.
All the better though, that the reaction was of such fuel, to keep Antioch alive for a long time to come. Does Jim realize that Antioch has universities all over the US and world?
Nope……..
