On Protests

I have always had a problem with authority; especially what I consider to be ‘illegitimate’ authority. The Viet Nam War was waging throughout my childhood, and at that time the American flag was looked upon by many as a symbol of illegitimate authority. It still is to me. Let me explain. My family was politically […]

NotBuyingIt

I came across this disturbing comment on a story about the recently ended US Immigration policy of of separating children as young as 3 years old from the parents of immigrants crossing the border illegally. It’s quite instructive in demonstrating the mind set of the typical tRump supporter. NotBuyingIt • 21 hours ago These are […]

USA: #1 in Global election meddling

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, […]

TRUMP IS A RUSSIAN ASSET

The “president” is a Russian agent. There’s just no getting around it. He’s clearly being blackmailed, and Vladimir Putin’s got him by the balls. The Russians got their hooks into tRump when he tried to screw his financial backers after his casinos went belly-up in the ’90s. the New York banks wouldn’t loan tRump any more money […]

THE LAST WORD ON ET

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 […]

Unconscionable

Last week, the White House tried to use a passage from the Buybull to justify the vile, illegal and immoral practice of separating migrant children from their families at the US border. “Illegal entry into the United States is a crime, as it should be,” said mock Attorney General Jeff Sessions during a speech to […]

welcome to the jungle

In April 2018, “president” tRump quietly signed the Death Warrant for the US Postal Service. Here is an excerpt from the text of “Executive Order on the Task Force on the United States Postal System”: The USPS is on an unsustainable financial path and must be restructured to prevent a taxpayer-funded bailout. Sec. 2.  Establishment.  […]

BALLAD OF THE KOSHER METH KING

First there was disgraced Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio. That was way back in August of 2017. Since then, the other lucky criminals to be pardoned by “president” tRump include the odious fraudster Dinesh D’Souza, traitor Scooter Libby; and the latest pardon for housewife-turned cocaine-distributor Alice Johnson – thanks to ‘celebrity’ Kim Kardashian’s intervention. But THE […]

CAPITALISM VS. FREEDOM

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” […]
