Ask HN: Looking for an old hacker fiction short story
I've been looking for a short story I saw on Slashdot around 2003-2005 for a while now, and I was hoping somebody here might remember it and point me in the right direction. My google skills are failing me.
The general idea is a sysadmin in the 90's or early 2000's gets shrunken down to the size of an ant along with the son of his boss, who is an anarchist that wears a swastika T-shirt. Him and the sysadmin go into an ant colony and meet the queen; the son convinces her to have a Marxist revolution after a debate about monarchy and personal liberty, and she's all into the revolution.
Can't say I remember much more, except I have the notion that it might have been hosted on kuro5hin.
