14. Third way
is basically defeatist idealogy, "progressives" who have no answers to challenges presented by Thatcherism, neoliberalism and IMF run capitalist globalization. It's left selling out, just to grab power for powers sake but to do nothing that might upset the their corporate masters / establishment. Political movement that promises to do the same what Thatcher and Raygun did but with smiling, more "humane" face and lot of sweet talking (spin). Unca Tom's approach, or one could maybe parallel it to Stalinism with human face of Checkoslovakia pre 1968, only that it is much worse of course.

Fuck them, let's start Socialist Green revolution with our brothers and sisters in Third World!
