Continuing the discussion in stark terms, willing to offend and be offended, about the exploitation and substantive shaping of our society and civilization.
Reminder for liberals...
You buy and train dogs to protect your flock, your livelihood. If year after year your flock continues to get eaten... and all you do is tell your dogs they're "good boys" around the fire every night...
The carcasses are YOUR fault... not the wolves'.
“I'm not trying to trash brother Biden… I'm trying to make him accountable for his actions in light of how the wretched of the earth are treated… And that's true for any politician, be it Obama, Biden, Clinton, Bush, Trump -- all of them have to be measured by the same standard of truth and justice.”
—Cornel West on CNN
The Democratic Party has become a threat to free speech and democracy.
As a former Democratic insider who has never supported a Republican, and who has spent 25 years opposing the GOP, I am profoundly alarmed at how the party I quit in 2020 is crushing dissent in 2024.
Why are Republican voters more open to a democratic primary process than Democrats?
Why are Democrats demanding cult-like fealty to a deeply unpopular president?
Why is the DNC squelching a primary when half of their voters want someone other than Biden?
Why is the Democratic Party working aggressively to kick Greens off the ballot and to suppress any challenge to their hegemony?
I am an Independent leftist, so I oppose the GOP as a matter of principle. But I won't hesitate to call out Democrats for their anti-democratic behavior.
A VICTORY??????????
THE. F*CKING. PLANET. IS. ON. FIRE.
Biden is a catastrophe, and every single one of his defenders needs to do some serious soul searching.
The Mountain Valley Pipeline's annual emissions have been estimated to equal 19 million cars.
I don't really understand how Barack Obama can today talk about the climate crisis with a straight face after he delivered this speech in the same month climate scientists were warning of record-breaking temperatures.

Absolutely delightful. 😂 Dr. Cornel West's response to Joan Walsh's, "Cornel West Has No Business Running for President" nonsense,
"Why don't you check yourself? And wonder why you're generating such mediocre and milquetoast candidates."
The quicker liberals accept what is really happening to their society the better. Their party, the Democrats, are not protecting us from ANYthing.
Stolen human rights, more environmental destruction, massive vulture capital called "inflation", corporate control of all of it...
This is the most compelling RFKjr has been. Articulate. Intelligent. Mesmerizing.
Just watch (I don’t agree with his not mentioning the oppression of the Palestinians while praising Israel). 👇🏼
#MMT helps with this vs. teaching a few to be predatory investors. We need a political body that gets this and stops elevating "the great man" and self-centered investment strategies. Fuck Ayn Rand and fuck finance capitalism.
