Which is like saying that because we can stay up for 8 hours it's an inescapable fact that we don't need sleep. How much of the world's natural resources have we squandered since the Industrial Revolution?
(I've got a degree in Remote Sensing - which involves looking at the Earth from space. I therefore think my opinion is more informed)

Computers aren't necessarily capitalist - there is nothing in their motherboards that has the stupidity.
I don't practice mysticism of any sort. Therefore I am not a fakir.
I think your limited vocabulary was thinking of "faker".

People want it because they're told to want it, and because it's cheap and easy. Not because it's good for them or the planet.

Oh really, and if the people want to be allowed to commit murder?
Or destroy the planet?
People _should_NOT_be_allowed_what_they_want_all_the_time_ . It's
called "society". I'm not advocating heirarchy or coercion but you
can't always do what you want. Simple as that.

2 anti-student-grant-cuts demos, 3 anti-racism ones, 2 big anti-CJB ones (check the 18/9/94 New Statesman + Society, I'm the long-haired one pulling a silly face) and 4 or 5 RTS/anti-road protests in Bath and London (6 including Saturday/Sunday's). My life ain't miserable by a long chalk.
Pinko?! Mwahahahaha, it's been _years_ since I heard that one.
Gideon.
None.
