  • Just because you’re Jewish, it does not follow that you can’t be anti-Semitic.

    However, just because you criticize Israel, it does not mean you’re anti-Semitic. Global corporate media has been pushing this false idea pretty hard.

    Meanwhile, Faaiz Hasan, a national elections coordinator for the Green Party, framed the political debate in terms of class.

    Because it really is. The Epstein class engages in all sorts of trickery and manipulation to make the majority fight amongst ourselves in order to distract us from their ongoing and increasing theft of capital and resources. Racism is a great divider and is an excellent way to distract the masses.

    We’ve been in a class war for decades and the Epstein class has been winning.








  • Obama as the farthest left option when he was centrist at best.

    I remember the arguments I had in 2008 with my lefty friends when they kept saying Obama was the most liberal candidate. I’d go over each of their positions and showed my reasoning and they wouldn’t even consider what I said but instead would get emotional and insist he was more liberal.

    Hell, in his own book Obama talks about how Reagan was a huge role model for him.

    Obama is a great example of how charisma can put you over the top. And I love the guy, I just wish he had been a progressive and realized early on that the Republicans would never compromise on anything and that they were always working in bad faith.











  • Many reasons. Stupidity being the main one. According to the US department of Education, 54% of American adults cannot read or write prose beyond a sixth grade level. I have also read that almost 20% of the adult American population are functionally illiterate.

    Even when you take those people out of the equation you’re still left with a majority of people who are not paying attention to politics or current events. Some of those people will performatively vote during presidential elections, patting themselves on the back for being a good citizen while making choices they do not understand. All of the people I have described are not sophisticated consumers of media and are easily swayed by mass media.

    And this doesn’t even get into the problem of voter suppression and people working multiple jobs having a difficult time finding time to vote.
