So many evils of American capitalist society have become painfully obvious during the course of Pandemic 2020 . Our mostly FOR PROFIT hospitals, nursing homes, MAKE-A-BUCK medical doctors and dentists - URGENT CARE centers for the well to do- are a disgrace to humanity.
How to explain -judging from the soaring stock market - why the rich keep getting richer when life is hell for everybody else ?
ONLY democratic socialists -NOT connected to the so called " far left " of the Democratic Party- explain that everywhere the capitalist system is based on exploitation and oppression. And RACISM has a mostly CLASS basis. Both Malcolm X and Martin Luther King - both mysteriously assassinated - were leaning toward some form of socialism. My favorite Malcolm X quote : " Show me a capitalist and I will show you a blood sucker ! "
Yet our legions of high school and college students are taught not even to IMAGINE a different " Way of Life . Any public school teacher or radio talk show host who dissents from the pro-capitalist party line ( the party line of the TWO PARTY SYSTEM , of " OUR democracy ") can expect a very short career.
And since the 2016 shock ( TRUMP WINS ! ) the Democratic Party has promoted a pernicious HATE RUSSIA , New McCarthyism .
How can WE survive a nuclear war when we can hardly deal with hurricanes, blizzards, forest fires, and epidemics ?

Hi Ron,
I downloaded an interesting FREE bird identifying app and had it conduct a search based on your photo, geographic location, date , etc.
Pretty interesting. The app named "Merlin" is provided by Cornell University. It can also identify birds by recorded sounds.
So, at first try it tentatively identified your bird as a "King Eider" or a "Wood Duck". (See 3 attached screenshots)
There was another possibility that it could be some rare bird which you'll see, but I lost the name and wasn't able to replicate it.
But I don't think it was a "black swan" which would be so fitting for these times.
Talk soon,
Steve
Radical Ron sees health threat long before Pandemic Corona Virus
I am generally pleased with and appreciative of ALL public libraries . Just ONE public health suggestion: could this library and other public libraries please put up a poster reminding chronic coughers to avoid contaminating the air ? Perhaps they can offer the chronic cougher a face mask or a box of facial tissues.
You would think the staff would take some responsibility here . Is it so rude or politically incorrect to enforce public health standards ?
One frequent cougher at the Warwick Public Library was identified as a one time resident of Harrington Hall ( for the homeless ) in Cranston. A friend described Harrington Hall as sounding like a 19th century tuberculosis ward. He should know as he had to spend one horrible night there.]

Nov 28, 2020 — Providence Journal Executive Editor Alan Rosenberg. This week, I'll ... I'm retiring from the paper, and heading into a great unknown. I've loved ...]
If he does not outsource himself to India, Alan Rosenberg would make a very credible candidate for governor of Rhode Island . KNOWING THINGS MATTERS ! Run as an INDEPENDENT !

The specter of " socialism " in the Democratic Party
" N.Y. Rep.-elect warns AOC's influence over state, national politics is growing "
As a life long INDEPENDENT democratic socialist I think that only political illiteracy can explain this weird and false belief that the Democratic Party has anything resembling a democratic socialist agenda. Even that milk toast socialist Bernie Sanders compromises with " OUR way of life " , even this restrained " free market " capitalism ". Nor do any of these " progressive " ( meaning socialist sympathizers ) Democrats speak out with any credible passion against many century old socialist justice issues: tell THEIR president-elect to oppose the death penalty, dismantle our nuclear weapons system, oppose ALL imperialist interventions in foreign countries. Above all NATIONALIZE all vital industries and natural resources. ABOLISH homelessness in the United States by limiting all landlord PRIVATE PROPERTY rights . Compel all licensed medical doctors and dentists to accept ALL Medicare and Medicaid patients in the interests of a real national health care program.
Abolish FOR PROFIT hospitals and nursing homes .
Now that is " democratic socialism " with fangs !
