Okay, I give you points for being the ONLY other person on FR to know about the EVO. Some know about RAMPARTS, far fewer know of the BERKLEY BARB; however, nobody, not a single soul, has EVER known what I was talking about whenever I've posted about the EAST VILLAGE OTHER! Used to read all three but the Barb was the worst and lowest. I was leftist, that's why I understand the left so well. "Politically correct" meant something else back then

I was a Conservative, but was doing research on the enemy. Actually, I read the EVO more to know where NOT to be, or where to be, if I felt like protesting the damned, stinking protesters.
I only saw a few issues of the Barb, but I did read RAMPARTS often and I also read some of the other "local" underground rags. The EVO made THE VILLAGE VOICE look conservative, by comparison.

Seems to me that today's leftists are mostly dimwitted, humorless, insipid, lethargic dolts compared to back then.
A Cindy Sheehan would not only not been a "leader" she would not have even registered on the public's senses.
And! in the past they could express themselves without the F-word.
