unapologetically wallow in all three, you aren t a revolutionary.This book wouldn t be so thoroughly annoying if it wasn t widely promulgated when I was first getting into anarchism as a book about how to be an anarchist In fact, it s largely entertaining for its own sake But the amount of influence it had on late 90s early 00s anarchists is depressing Homelessness Unemployment Poverty If you re

author is really trying too hard to be witty Also, the constant hc band name dropping is annoying Don t get me wrong, I like Youth of Today and Earth Crisis just as much as the next person but if I ever say something like as Ray of Today would say, take a stand , I hope that I immediately choke to death on the very cheese that would have just spewed from my mouth Also, seriouslyhow many stories

really have one up on working people when their lives are every bit as structured and redundant as everyone else s Location means nothing You can hop all the trains you want but where ever you go, there you are, the same person You still think the same things, you still have the same perception of your own reality just like we all do My next problem ...this book just reeks of white suburban privilege to me an irresponsible lifestyle that only works if you are white male who can get away with it cos america is such a fucked up place not worth reading.I really hate Mac Evasion , the guy who wrote this And I m basing it on my personal interactions with him I read the majority of this book in its original zine form, and I thought it was relatively cool in that it was heavily illustrated with borrowed photos Although I am a vegan and extremely tolerant of straight edgers I actually like to encourage it in others and some times even myself , his attitude toward women is hardly any different than a drunken fratboy jock He once spoke to a I really hate Mac Evasion , the guy who wrote this And I m basing it on my personal interactions with him I read the majority of

Lawrence, Kansas and to promote his book, openly voiced his disdain at them for being some thing that they actually were NOT I didn t write this for you, I wrote it for the poor lonely outsider that feels trapped in a suburb in the middle of nowhere or something like that Like Lawrence was great Metropolis and as if Kansas WASN T in the middle of nowhere Like all these kids, politically precocious as they were, had a master s degree in dumpster diving ...The story itself is interesting It s always good to pick up a book about someone living differently from yourself It gives you perspective and gets you out of your own bubble The idea is interesting The story though not incredibly well written is entertaining and does bring up plenty of important questions about the world we live in So I will give it two stars for being interesting and for teaching me something about a world I would not otherwise have known about Here s the deal though The story itself is interesting It s
