Yes, the warning is useful.
I simply made the mistake of believing that by quoting the primary
source, everyone would have guessed not everything on that webpage
should be taken as given truth by members of this list.
Anne Williamson is a fine person, was a good friend of Mark Jones´s whom
he got acquainted with through a shared hate of the criminal gang that
took over the Soviet Union with Yeltsin (and a similar hate she
displayed on the Argentinean defenders of Miesian ideas made her look
under a particularly positive light to me). But yes, she is a strong
defender of gold standard, an anti-Keynesian Miesian and all that.
She believes that in the American Civil War, Lincoln was the most
roguish character of all, and hates the construction of a mighty
national state.
But this is exactly why I thought the article on Moldova was so
interesting. The ideas of a "little American" (in the sense Chesterton
or perhaps even Orwell were at core "little Englanders") economic
anarchist are absolutely free of any kind of "red", even "pinko",
disease. If these people, from their own point of view, can see
imperialism in action, it is twice as serious that groups that consider
themselves radical and Marxist in Russia and surrounding countries
cannot come to terms with this most basic fact of this world we are
struggling to revolutionize.
