Ideologues are a humorless lot

People' Liberation Army hottie!
"Satire must never be directed against the class whose aspirations you share - only against the enemy." - Chairman Mao criticizing La Chinoise, a film by Jean-Luc Godard in the novel The Adventures of Mao on the Long March.

Empathy for others is not a major factor amongst the revolutionary types. Good tactical advice though.

Battling those liberatarian blues

 BLUF: Sometimes being a man is eating shit to feed your family.

One of my favorite libertarian/anarchists Kent McManigal is having some hard times and feeling blue. I feel his pain. Been there myself. Probably be there again too someday. I feel you man. You can't feed your kids with ideological bromides. Karl Marx allowed his kids to die of neglect rather than get off his high-horse and get a job. Many more ideologically driven types abandon their kids or don't bother and have any. Kent's a better man than that and so are most of my brothers and sisters.
