So, via a recent Linked-In solicitation, I find that Don Was describes himself as an Anarcho-Syndicalist. Sounds good to me! If Praisers, Nihlists and Atheists are starting clubs, let's get one going that may tap into the Zeitgeist of these troubled times a whole lot more than those others!
BTW, Praisers, Atheists and Nihlists are all welcome! |

Hypocritical, in that I buy goods manufactured by capitalists. But what can ya do other than live in the wilderness or something akin to that? Maybe I'm not really a true anarcho-socialist then, but I'd quite like to be one, if it were possible for me.
As for pictures, I'm not sure you can have pics of a political ideology  |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: Los Angeles | | | Insofar as most anarcho-syndicalists seek to form a society that functions without any political system whatsoever,and/or shun conventional participation in the political process, I figure a club of anarcho-syndicalist bassists is not talking "politics" per se.
OTOH, many anarcho-syndicalists believe that politics and economics are inextricably intertwined, and I'd further submit that as a belief system, anarcho-syndicalism could be tantamount to a religion - for, after all, isn't religion a belief system? I don't see discussion of the economy or religion banned on Talk Bass, so I'd hope that the anarcho-syndicalist bassists club will live long and prosper!
BTW, no numbers for membership...that would not be the anarcho-syndicalist way! Smash the hierarchical hegemony of sequential numbering! |

Edit: On topic(I think)- I hope I'm contributing to the anarchist feel here by not really touching the OP's subject.

How about an apathy club? Don't know as I can be bothered though.

Edit: -Scratch this part, I see there has already been enough talk about religion-
How does your anarcho-syndicalism manifest in band enviroment?
Mine manifests in slow song-writing process. Getting the pieces finally together and everybody has a say in everything.
