i dont understand how that would work, though.
speaking as memberboy, i have a couple divergences---
a) i understand politics as a type of philosophy.
b) i do not like situations in which we collectively confuse this messageboard with the bigger world, and from there act as though a solution to a problem developed in the course of a conversation actually resolves the problem. there are comrades who post as if posting was like being broadcast on a worldwide network of jumbo television sets, being viewed by billions---where i tend to assume almost the exact opposite, that no-one reads this, that it's just a parlor we hang around in having debates to while away extra time we happen to have in a manner that is arguably more productive than watching tv or getting baked.

i dont object to the idea, i'm just wondering what you have in mind in more detail.
