[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by CSSHEGEWISCH</i> <br /><br />It is most interesting to note that most of the "optimists" who believe that OA (it seems to mean different things to different people) is the wave of the future are also subscribing to the Marxian concept (and fallacy) of historic inevitability. A review of past predictions often shows that flows of events are often turned on seemingly unrelated or minor occurences. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Why would you equate historic inevitability with Marx? Look at the stock market - it is historically inevitable that the stock market will continue to rise in the long run, and it has since it's inception despite the occasional downturn. The stock market is the antithesis of Marx.
