<br>can we work with anti-abortion distributists on distributing property, I think so,<br><br>can we work with pro-gun rednecks on a social safety net, I think so, <br><br>etc ...<br><br>in #ows, you're not working with movements, but agreeing with non-representational individuals, seems a good way to proceed,<br>
