Thank you kit that is outstanding and I for one (and SR obviously for two!) really appreciate you putting that together.

At first your mention of children as an "exemplification of powerlessness" didn't quite register with me (#6) but I think I am seeing now how that could be a discourse justifying oppression generally. Step #1, we protect vulnerable children, don't we? Step #2, the state must always protect all of us against some of us, meaning, leave us powerless.

Thank you for the phrase "better and more consistent Marxist." That really captures my own relationship with Marx (who often seems to me, like Freud, to have been somehow discredited by the general adoption of most of his major points, something that seems like it ought to be an intellectual impossibility).
