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 .

Alone on the Left World Socialist Web Site shows compassion for old Bill Cosby -and concern for JUSTICE
"The comments on the outcome of the Cosby case in the Times from readers of its article “Bill Cosby, Once a Model of Fatherhood, Is Sentenced to Prison,” are overwhelmingly vengeful and vindictive "
I commend the World Socialist Web- almost alone among the so called " Left "- for showing some basic HUMAN decency in judging these male victims of # Me-Too hysteria.
Because it does not sing in tune with a lynch mob the Socialist Equality Party ( I am not very familiar with on-going disputes " on the Left " ) has been smeared recently for being " insensitive " on matters of race and gender. It seems to me that this is completely false. Orthodox Marxism - even socialist common sense-puts racism and sexism into a CLASS perspective.
When I expressed sympathy for the famous and gifted black entertainer Bill Cosby I was called " a woman hater " at WBUR on-line ( I am still wearing my deceased woman companion's ring ) .
Principled socialists are really scheming supporters of "Donald Trump Hitler " ? What insane nonsense .
