"Dawkins is a conservative who identifies the processes of capitalist trading as being prefigured in our ‘altruistic’ or ‘dealing’ genes..."
Oh, for Christ sake, not again. Why can no one on the left get this right? It must be in your genes. Dawkins is a lefty: for Labour, for trade unions, against the Iraq war, against Bush.
Is that from Paddy's Pathfinder piece? (Going by the sitemeter, that appears to be the article in this month's Standard that everyone is clicking on.)
Maybe you should wing a email/letter the Standard's way. (hint, hint.)
Interesting that it's popular; shame Paddy's got it wrong. It might be in his genes, but I think it's probably because lefties only bother reading Gould's side of the argument.
Cheers
Paddy's always struck me as one of those annoying types who reads both sides of the argument. (Where's the opionated fun in that?) But I might be wrong in this case.
Btw, jeez, just been reading the Anarchist Bookfair threads on Urban 75 and Libcom. Didn't realise some bloke had been punched 'cos of things that had been said on message boards.
PS - Maybe someone should mention it to CM on the WiC discussion list?
Well, there's a case where I've read neither side of the argument! Didn't know about the punch up.
In a pub after the bookfair, between someone from LibCom and another anarchist who took exception to some of the comments posted on the LibCom message boards. Sounds gruesome.
