I also agree with many of Chris Hedges insights on the political and moral rot of late capitalism. But I suspect he is looking for allies in seedy , sectarian Marxist parties . I observe that the leaders and members of these " socialist " groups hate Christians and Christianity and the " deplorable " white working class more than they love the generic WORKERS OF THE WORLD. Every day TWO MINUTES hate for the white working class " deplorables " ? ( right out of Orwell's " 1984 " )
Chris Hedges has observed how ILLIBERAL liberalism has become in one generation. But the SOCIALIST Left lately can hardly hide its loathing for the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization.
Yes , FASCISM is everywhere raising its ugly head . But there are still many imitation Stalins waiting in the Left wings . Lock step, fanatical GROUP THINK is just as scary on the Left as menacing on the Right.
