His tirades against primitivism are irritating, but I am interested in his depictions of civ-ish social arrangements that were egalitarian in nature.

He must really need his CRITICAL cheese proteins

A dirty critique indeed. I'd say shitty. It's so shallow

The whole paragraph about mining in the Congo completely ignores the point. You cannot have Coltan without having people mine it. And I'd love to see William Gillis mine some Coltan. We'll see how he really likes it when he is forced (in his utopian society) to witness his own exploitation of other people. Then again, he probably won't care. "I traded my paintings for this sick Coltan!" he will say

He starts talking about primitivists who don't think like he generalizes them to think and immediately gets off that train before it backfires in his face
