An independent democratic socialist observes LIFE in " OUR democracy "

Inspired from youth by Albert Camus' sense of the Absurd, I try to be a voice for REASON in the growing darkness and moral insanity of global capitalism .

Our ruling class sets the gold standard for art appreciation

Texas man accused of trying to plant bomb on Confederate statue
               
The phony pseudo-Left has declared war on old Confederate monuments - which in some occult way generate foaming at the mouth HATE and RACISM among otherwise well balanced working class white people.

All the neo-con , war mongering Democrats who take a stand against HATE and BIGOTRY and those puny neo-Nazi and KKK gangs are truly profiles in courage.

I doubt if any of them will show up to publicly scorn the statues of numerous American capitalist " philanthropists " - like Cornelius Vanderbilt or any number of Rockefellers. Nelson Rockefeller had a Diego Rivera monument removed and destroyed in New York City. It smacked of Bolshevism and working class revolt.

Our ruling class sets the gold standard for art appreciation. And for the limits of " free speech ".
