  1. So many things to distrust and criticize this country for, but one big one was the planned assassination of Fred Hampton ... why would they do that?  The guy was very bright, and he talked a lot of sense.  Who knows who the FBI has either killed or determined was a threat and ruined their life in hundreds of ways.  Get people kicked or flunked out of college so they cannot get a job, get them fired from their jobs, frame them for crimes, give them sicknesses ... who knows, but almost nothing is out of bounds looking at what we have seen.   This country was willing to go to Vietnam and kill millions of people and defoliate the entire country to test weapons and look macho ,and to keep lower class working people down politically.

  2. What the fuck does "reality asserts itself" mean.  This world is so insulated from reality, reality doesn't have a chance ... just like science.

  3. I always and still hated Ronald Reagan ... he was a stuffed shirt, liar and demented idiot that was used by the elite to oppress the people. When Carter gave his malaise speech ... interest rates were around 10% and unemployment was also high.

  4. This is really great. Frank's point about populism being upside down is so right on. The Republicans really have that BS garbage lying down so that it somehow appeals to uninformed Americans. They also prey o the racism of Americans, the inability to accept and process guilt and injustice.
