The popular anti-capitalist film "Capitalism and Other Kids' Stuff" is now out on DVD at £5.50 including p&p As the Berlin Wall fell and the Kremlin’s Empire collapsed in Eastern Europe, Western leaders spoke about a “peace dividend” and how money previously spent on arms would be re-channelled into social programmes; redirected towards the fight against poverty, inequality and ignorance. Some spoke about “the end of history”, how capitalism was at last triumphant. Capitalism, at the dawn of a new millennium, had supposedly seen off its rivals and now, left to develop, would bring prosperity to all. |

Do you not see the irony?
Do you not see that you can never win?
because they can get dvds and post and packaging from the magic faeries!
Beligerant whinging about tedious pointless stuff about our side is why were not getting anywhere.
That and advertising on indymedia.
The DVD is professionally produced, with a specially designed jacket and inlay. Production and advertising costs are reflected in the price. The DVD is sent out in a padded envelope and first class.
Jesus Christ! Whadya want for a fiver? I bet you think bugger all about spending twice that on guinness to piss up against a wall.
Well I'm certainly going to buy it anyway, perhaps it got something to do with the whole Decadent Front movement. Besides every f**k*r goes on about why capitalism is the problem these days in the pub at one stage or another. It'll be good for the stats. I do love going on about how much some governments spend on arms (not mentioning any names here). And I don't see the whole irony thing about it being sold, I mean stuff can still be bought and sold without it being capitalism. In this day and age, material like this is a valuable commodity, and its sale is not being overly profited upon, I presume (at a fiver like).
I've no problem with the fiver. But, it's a preposterous and hardly literate argument to suggest that one shouldn't cover ones costs just because one is against capitalism. Anyway .. that weblink [http://www.socialist.tv.com] is down. So whether you’re for or against the auld capitalism, you can't buy this DVD right now!
;-)
I though, maybe the URL is spelt incorrectly. So I tried http://www.socialist.com/ to see if the DVD was for sale there. It wasn’t. But that website did suggest that I might like to "Search the Web" to try for
"Personal Finance
Mortgages
Real Estate Investing
Financial Planning
Tax Preparation"
So, whatever about arguing the finer points of the taking the capitalism out of anticapitalist here on Indymedia, someone is out there busily putting the capitalism into http://www.socialist.com/ !!
