A militant INDEPENDENT democratic socialist's attempt to expose the truth of our culture – in all its rich irony and absurdity.

What if this mysterious Ford attempted rape victim were more like " white trash " Mayella Ewell in " To Kill A Mockingbird "
Readers will appreciate these well balanced articles in the future. I really wonder though if most socialists will strain their heart strings deciding which judges of the American Supreme Court are " vicious " and which are not .
Just consider the last 50 years and the capitalist nightmare today. The over all temper of the Supreme Court is probably not determined by individuals - who rub off on one another anyway. I think most Marxists would agree on this - if three Marxists in a room can agree on anything but the ABCs .
[ " Trump, who has so far withheld his usual Twitter smears against Ford, said Wednesday that it is “very hard for me to imagine anything happened” between Kavanaugh and Ford ...]
Recall the plot of the Harper Lee classic " To Kill A Mockingbird " - now banned in some public schools for use of the N-word. Recall the character of the " white trash " Southern girl Mayella Ewell - believed to be a crippled black man's attempted rape victim.
What if this mysterious Ford woman were more like Mayella in her social background- more working class poor ? I am sure both the Democrats and Republicans would not invite her to testify against naughty rich boy Kavanaugh or even take her story very seriously.
Yet again we must see this story through CLASS colored glasses.
