Ron Ruggieri Ron Ruggieri 10 minutes ago (edited) Cynical this thought ? : When an ambitious upwardly mobile black person prates about devotion to " OUR democracy " - THE GREAT AMERICAN EXPERIMENT" - you know( if you are some sort of CRAZY socialist ) that this person is some sort of professional charlatan. I speak not as a Trump fan - I speak as a DEMOCRATIC socialist . It is precisely this vulgar Wilsonian Blather about FREEDOM and DEMOCRACY and TRUTH, JUSTICE, and the AMERICAN WAY- which in 1917 got us into the GREAT WAR - the war to make the world safe for democracy - that will get us into nuclear World War III with countries like Russia and China whose oligarchies do not live up to the high moral standards of " OUR democracy ", of our DEEP STATE , our CIA , our Pentagon War Crimes Machine, countries whose social structures are not COMPATIBLE with our military industrial complex. What we do have in common is millions of clueless but healthy young people available - whether they like it or not - to serve as cannon fodder ( or more accurately CRUISE MISSILE FODDER) for the next glorious GREAT WAR - to make the world safe for WHATEVER pleases the ruling classes. Could it be a new Dark Age ?
