My long-promised interview with Prodos is now up, over at The Atlasphere.
An excerpt, discussing his own former communist convictions:
The consequence of that personal struggle — that led me in and then out of communism — is that I have great patience with people who believe things that are different from me. Provided someone is honest and believes in ideas, facts, and reality, I can be friends with them.On the other hand, it also means that I have utter contempt for the modern anti-capitalist movement. But they’re not the idealists of old. The modern “leftie” is just nihilist trash. And you can quote me on that, buddy.
A few nice surprises, too. Highly recommended reading!
