FREE RADICAL 76: A Challenge for Young Socialists ... and FREE Radicals![]() Submitted by Peter Cresswell on Wed, 2007-07-04 04:47
When the Berlin Wall fell it was obvious to everyone with eyes to see and a brain to think with that socialism had been tried, and it had failed spectacularly. No one alive at the time could fail to get the lesson: Socialism Sucks. But it seems lessons that big have to be relearned every generation: the tragedy of Venezuela should be this generation’s object lesson that Socialism Sucks. Socialism came to Venezuela, and in its inevitable wake has come poverty, penury and oppressive totalitarian rule. This issue of The Free Radical sends out A Challenge to Young Socialists to watch, and to learn – and to reject this ideological harbinger of misery. Let freedom reign! Let freedom reign in boardrooms, bedrooms and smoko rooms. We talk to NZ Green MP Metiria Turei who wants to let freedom reign in New Zealand’s hospital treatment rooms, allowing medical practitioners to prescribe a drug that, as Jonothan Rennie's History of Medical Marijuana points out, was once used by Queen Victoria – a drug that Lancet has confirmed is less harmful than either alcohol or tobacco. There’s much, much more in this issue:
advice for parents from Larry Sechrest and Tia Wooller: Don't fake reality; … all this and much more in this latest issue including new and regular columnists to challenge your funnybone and your thinking, and great scads of The Free Radical's usual brand of irreverent wit. I invite you to step inside Free Radical 76: Politics, Economics & Life As If Freedom Mattered, and load up on intellectual ammunition! Buy your hard copy (NZ only) from one of these quality outlets. But that's not all. We're so confident of the quality of each and every copy of The Free Radical that this month we're throwing open our digital back issues.

Well done
Its a very dynamic cover and the rustic colors give it a socialist feel. I dont think I could have done it better my self.

Easy, Peter, just think of
Easy, Peter, just think of it as a networking/marketing page/blog. You can post excerpts from the latest issue, advertise the current issue, increase awareness of the magazine.

The myspace pages are easy to maintain and modify.

I must confess, Joe, that I haven't even considered that. Largely because I have no idea what a "Free Rad Myspace page" would be/entail/encourage.
Myspace
Just curious, any consideration or plans for a Free Rad Myspace page? With all the Democratic candidates signing up and being promoted there, might be a nice counterbalance.

Nice cover...
But is it Phil-proof?
Can't wait for my copy!
Looks incredible, Peter, and with the usual incomparable content. A fresh reminder I've 'been away too long!'
"Are there more back issues
"Are there more back issues of TFR available for download as PDFs?"
Not yet, but once we can persuade those who need persuading to update the Free Rad website, we'll launch with most of the back issues on PDF. Watch this space.
"Another great cover..."
Merci beacoup you two. Soviet art has always cried out for spoofing. I think it was PJ O'Rourke who observed that in most of it people are staring off into the distance as if they've just cut one off.
Cheers, Peter Cresswell

Are there more back issues of TFR available for download as PDFs?
Indeed!
Another great cover, Messrs Clark and Cresswell. Reminds me of the Soviet "art" I was exposed to in my communist childhood. Nicely spoofed, gentlemen.
Great cover art!
Yep.
