However, while an argument should not be discarded because of poor grammar/spelling/structure, one cannot argue that, all other things being equal, grammar has an impact. The same argument, eloquently put, will almost always be more convincing than if it was presented in a poor mismatch of words.

In reality that says more about our own prejudices as readers than it does of the author. It’s really the same function as having a confident, calm tone, vs having a panicked, uncertain tone. If the same information is conveyed, you can argue it doesn’t matter.

I like your post. In the end, I would say that as a reader, you should try to focus on the message. As an author (even of a blog or message board) you should put effort into correct grammar because even if your readers are open minded, they will have an easier time of understanding and considering that message if you present it well.

I actually am not well-versed in Latin American anarchism, so I wouldn’t know where to look. I hope you’ve found some help.

Compare Cuba to a country that is just as poor. See how horrible it is then.

(And Cuba *still* beats them in so many areas.)

This would be like comparing, Congo to the USSR to point out the failures of Capitalism.

Nobody bothers to compare Cuba with a capitalist nation of the same wealth and adversity, because the end result would not be useful for propaganda.

I always compare it to having those sunglasses from “They Live.” Not sure if you ever saw it, but it’s an awesome movie.

You can never go back to the time where crass female objectification and rape-culture didn’t annoy you out of half what the popular culture has to offer.
