MysticWicks endorsement: "I've always, always regarded the Discordians as being people who chose to be Discordians because they can't be arsed to actually do any work to develop a relationship with a specific deity, they were too wishy-washy to choose just one path, and they just want to be a mishmash of everything and not have to work at learning about rituals or traditions or any such thing as that."

QuoteA guillotine, the symbol of the French Revolution, has been placed Wednesday in the center of Tel Aviv's "tent city," turning into one of the biggest attractions in this ongoing social protest.

Then again, I've been advocating that we "bring Jacobinism back" since late 2007.

300,000 people are protesting in that tent city, it should be pointed out.  That's a huge percentage of Israel's population.  So much for Israel's "economic miracle".

That is..   well that is pretty fucking awesome.  I'm no fan of their state policies myself but damn if putting a guillotine in public isn't in keeping with there being no question as to what message is being sent and what that message means.
