what could be worse than betting on wildfires, and then making sure you win by just setting the trees on fire yourself? how about betting someone else's money on israel and then making sure you win by just setting the humans on fire yourself whether you like it or not, if you have a bank account or a tuition or pay taxes, your money is right now being betted on any number of absolutely despicable…
It is indeed a relief to see most of the country turn against genocide. It was all well and good for Biden to crack some heads on college campuses, but how can Trump and Schumer possibly arrest 3/4 of the country? Most Americans have had enough of this capitalist gaslighting that expects us to believe that they are doing it all for the love of democracy or of Judaism. At the same time, the killing…
While “Border Czar” Tom Homan’s latest warning to Democrats who criticize ICE that “there’s still going to be more bloodshed unless they shut their mouth and let ICE enforce the laws that they enacted” is nonsensical, it does highlight many of the ironies of the debate around ICE. First is the total contradiction between Dem words and Dem actions. What these cynical politicians say in public to…
I don’t like it when "human nature" gets blamed for evils that are actually the fault of very specific rich and powerful people or very specific economic political or aesthetic systems that are neither inevitable nor universal but really just a handful among infinite possibilities that humans could try or have tried through the millennia The human species is neither a virus nor a cancer nor…
TRAVEL DAY THOUGHTS FROM AIRPORT HOTEL...WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT, SO MANY OF THE APPARENT CONTROVERSIES, PLOT TWISTS, AND REVERSALS OF FORTUNE THAT CORPORATE MEDIA SELL AS SHOCKING WERE AMAZINGLY PREDICTABLE AND REALLY JUST PART OF THE PLAN ALL ALONG. In case it wasn't obvious, it was always the plan to provoke Hamas into giving Biden and Harris an excuse to divert tens of billions of U.S.…
What is capitalism? Maybe I don't know exactly, but I know it's more than just buying and selling things, which has been done around the globe for many millennia before anything like capitalism ever appeared on this planet. In the three hundred thousand year span of human existence, capitalism is just a tiny blip. If you don't like the word capital or capitalism, feel free to call our current…
THANK YOU NEW YORK VOTERS FOR SEEING THROUGH THE GASLIGHTING “VOTING YOUR CONSCIENCE IS UNREALISTIC” SAYS THE DEMOCRAT WHO JUST LOST “THE WORD SOCIALISM SCARES THE AMERICAN WORKING CLASS” SAYS THE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT POLITICIAN WHO'S ACTUALLY THE ONE WHO'S SCARED OF SOCIALISM “YOU AND I MIGHT LIKE SOCIALISM BUT JOE BLOW DOWN THE STREET WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND” SAYS THE ESTABLISHMENT DEMOCRAT OR…
The vast majority of national-level Democrat politicians are what we call “AIPAC Democrats”. Not because they have Israeli citizenship, or are Jewish, or religious, or concerned with Israeli or Jewish safety, but because they are charisma-challenged, bad at their job, and unable to win their elections without the massive election interference, financial help, and smear campaigns that AIPAC…
So…now that U.S. taxpayers have been forced to sacrifice billions of dollars to arm Israel’s genocide, does the world view the state of Israel in a more positive light? Do Jews around the world feel more secure? Were these really Biden's or Trump's or Netanyahu's goals? So...now that AIPAC has spent hundreds of millions of dollars interfering in U.S. elections to sabotage popular progressive…
I often say on here that genocide is the worst crime that human beings have ever invented. But that’s not really true. There’s one worse. Omnicide: the killing of everything. Unfortunately, omnicide is not a fantasy. The project is underway. The entities committing it and profiting from it are actually the same governments, militaries and corporations committing and profiting from genocide. That…
