Oh, poor baby tRump. Why is everybody so mean to him? It’s not like he’s ever insulted anyone ever in his life. He’s just so nice to everyone…and for some reason celebrities and world leaders and former staff members want to make fun of him. The relentless victimhood that the “president” creates for himself is […]
In truth, Russian and Israeli state meddling in the 2016 US elections doesn’t hold a candle to all the actual coups and “regime changes” perpetrated by our own intelligence agencies all over the world since 1947. The USA staged coups against virtually every progressive government that emerged since WWII. The list is long and growing, […]
The Copernican Principle – when applied to intelligent life on Earth – would confirm that we are not particularly “special” in terms of intelligence in our galaxy, and that our civilization is technologically very young. So it’s a bit of a stretch for a scientist from our “era of observation” (which one could liken to […]
America’s former global leadership role in the world had more to do with the impact of the G.I. bill than the fear caused by the Soviet Union’s launching of Sputniks I and II in 1957. Prior to the 1963 coup, the nation’s elite actually felt a little ‘Noblesse Oblige’ over the loss of so many […]

Never mind irony… It looks like we’ve just found out who the ‘snowflakes’ really are. The […]
What capitalism has ultimately succeeded in doing is branding economic oppression as “Freedom.” The Left [what’s left of The Left…]really needs to appreciate the degree to which all the progressive ideals and emancipatory lifestyles which emerged in the 60s have been fully integrated into the ruling capitalist ideology. Meaningless slogans like “Make America Great Again” […]
It is astonishing that the mainstream media [MSM] in the USA still cling to such obvious absurdities as the “lone gunman” theory of JFK’s assassination; a scenario which could only have been possible in an alternative universe, where the laws of Physics cease to exist. Kennedy was clearly killed by the head shot that came […]
To create substantive political change which goes beyond symbolic action, young people and their supporters who want to stop the country’s epidemic of gun violence need to create an organizational infrastructure. Then they need to gather the vast financial resources necessary to counter the death grip the NRA has on American “democracy.” But because America […]
When it comes to our understanding of ‘God’ it doesn’t matter what you believe, as long as you strive to do the right thing every day and appreciate all life. We use the label ‘God’ for lack of a better word to explain this concept, because that’s what people can relate to. Most people believe […]
