    What do you think about the world socialist website? Like it? Hate it? Never heard of it?

    I find myself agreeing with a lot of their opinions and analysis. It's not my primary source for news, but I think it's a good supplementary site.

    I've never been to it.

    Do they help organize the World Social Forum, do you know?

    I don't really know. It's the website of the Social Equality Party, if that's any help.

    I think it's affiliated with the World Socialist Movement, which did a series of videos called "Capitalism and Other Kid's Stuff." It's on Youtube, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&list=PL4D6E9C6F6EB20FEB&v=jw6_l9Dt720

    Basically the videos describe society using a big kindergarten as an analogy, and shows how capitalism is like one big bully getting control of all the "toys." It may be a simplistic metaphor, but I still think it does have a lot of good points about capitalism. I'm not sure how active World Socialist Movement is, but apparently they've been around for awhile.
