re: #437 dog philosopher ஐஒஔ௸

perhaps, but i still wonder what it is that people think “berkeleyites believe”

berkeley is populated by uc students, professors, many rather wealthy people who tend to live in the hills, street people hitting you up for spare change, wheelchair bound people attracted by all the flat terrain, and people like me who used to consider themselves hippies but are now professionals with mortgages and (not myself on this last point) kids

no actual communists to speak of

Even the most lefty person I went to school with wasn’t an actual honest to God communist. And he was pretty left wing. Of course, to the right anyone to the left of Ronald Reagan is a Marxist.
