Here the NRA can play an heroic role : distribute easy to use handguns and automatic weapons among the homeless of the nation's big cities . The homeless also have civil rights !

Nothing could be more ridiculous and fatal to the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization than turning the public schools into extensions of the capitalist POLICE STATE

Nothing could be more ridiculous and fatal to the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization than turning the public schools into extensions of the capitalist POLICE STATE. And how many GOOD cops want to baby sit day after day for public school children ? They will go insane with boredom ! As a democratic socialist not a conservative Republican or a MAGA Trump fan I think it is foolish to over-vilify the NRA or middle class parents who think they need LEGAL guns to protect their families from increasing social chaos . The LIBERAL program of de-institutionalization of the mentally ill beginning in the early 60s ( the Camelot Era ) was in effect - a crime against humanity . Whole books have been written on this topic by professional , experienced, COMPETENT not WOKE corrupted psychiatrists . Drug addicts and alcoholics especially need long term SHELTERED care. How can chronic homelessness improve anybody's mental health ? Whatever national health care plan Obama put into action is a pathetic joke - inadequate to deal with the reality of millions of needy Americans.

Is any student or professor at Brown University allowed to breathe there without slobbering over Zionist APARTHEID Israel? Or who is not WOKE on all issues ?

" JERUSALEM -- American support for Israel remains “ironclad,” U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told members of Israel's parliament Wednesday ..

Thank God for archives !

Thank God for ARCHIVES ! Taking my Twilight walk recently in the Knightsville neighborhood of Cranston a memorial stone in front of the V.F.W.. Post no 4651 near Saint Mary's Catholic Church caught my attention . Two names of young soldiers killed in Vietnam : Daniel R. Nelson and George J. Mack . With Memorial Day near I became curious about the story and the memories behind those names of the two now gone for more than a half a century. Both showed up with faces on " THE WALL OF FACES " . Daniel fell at Quang Tri on 6/23/69 . HOME OF RECORD : COVENTRY. BRANCH OF SERVICE : MARINE CORP . George Jacob Mack . Mack fell at Quang Nam on 5/14/1966. HOME OF RECORD CRANSTON .BRANCH OF SERVICE : MARINE CORPS. I was able to read a few posted memories of both young men. I did reflect that I was around their ages in the mid and late 60s. I read Ron Kovic's book " Born on the Fourth of July ". And never regretted protesting that war nor the equally tragic wars to come. Walking in a nearby cemetery some weeks ago in Johnston my brother Steve had the eerie experience of spotting a gravestone of a mere infant girl with the same birthdate as he August 28, 1954 . He was a still alive 68 years later. The BELOVED little girl never got started in life. On a walk in Saint Ann's Cemetery in Cranston I was struck my another gravestone that warned me : " As I am so you shall be ". A translation from the Latin on an old gravestone in ancient Rome. Does any old archive bring that FACE and SOUL to life ? Ultimately, I think , only God remembers us . HE who said " DO THIS IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME ".

Childhoods End : https://kunstler.com/clusterfuck-nation/childhoods-end

" America has become a malfunctioning pageant without feasible roles that children can realistically project themselves into…."

"The phoniest trope in American life goes like this: We must find the cause of X so that it never happens again. Of course, it will happen again. We only pretend that the cause is a mystery. Let's count the ways that school massacres happen.

American schools are fantastically depressing places. They are designed to look like medium security prisons and insecticide factories. They send the message: Enter here and be psychologically brutalized. They are too big, overwhelmingly alienating, ugly, devoid of visible symbolism signaling the value of being human. The interiors of the schools are designed for the convenience of janitors, hard surfaces of tile and linoleum that can be hosed down easily like the quarters of zoo animals. Children act accordingly.

The "facilities," as we call them, are deployed in the illegible landscape of a demolition derby, separated from all the other activities of daily life, which themselves have reached a culminating state of meaninglessness: big box shopping, national chain franchise food installations, strip malls of empty storefronts, parking lot wastelands, nothing that will excite a child's imagination with emotions other than bewilderment, anxiety, and aversion.

The "teaching" that supposedly goes on in schools is a broken remnant of preparation for an economy that no longer exists. We're no longer a society of people who do things, but rather a society of people to whom things are done, many of them harmful, humiliating, and arbitrary. America's demoralized teaching corps is so unhinged by their own anomie that they resort to imposing sadistic fantasies on the children in their charge.

Thus, all the inappropriate curricula around adult preoccupations with sex, such as the Drag Queen Story Hour, for which mentally ill men are invited to act-out impersonations of women-as-monsters for young people who can't possibly be expected to make sense of the spectacle. (I suspect that even six-year-olds, hard-wired to function as successful animals in this world, understand it as some kind of affront to reality.) Otherwise, American teachers are out of ideas, and are themselves damaged by the same forces in culture that they are now asked to direct.

America has become a malfunctioning pageant without feasible roles that children can realistically project themselves into. What ten-year-old longs to become the Burger King fry-o-later boss in a brown apron and an asinine cardboard crown? Rather, they are prompted to aspire to become sports star millionaires, of which there are perhaps fewer than 5,000 positions in a land of 340-million. By age twelve, they probably comprehend the unlikelihood of that outcome, or of becoming the next Kardashian… or Spiderman. (Superheroes are supplied by the entertainment cartels to occupy the imaginative realm of children because American culture is bereft of reality-based roles worth aspiring to.)

In this tumult of cultural impoverishment, psychotic grandiosity creeps in. Be big if you can't be anything else. Hence, one achievable role for young persons in American life is mass murderer. It is a way of becoming important, of having an effect on other people and society in general. Your name may be forgotten, but the act itself will endure in the collective memory of a people. It will be some kind of a mark in history, even better remembered, perhaps, than whoever played third-base for the Atlanta Braves in 1994… or the woman who once capered down the red carpet at the Oscars in a dress fashioned on a slaughtered swan.

The mayhem unleashed in a school shooting is just the rectified essence of the manifold derangements in our national life. Everything is out-of-whack, including our perception of what's going on and what it means. There is almost nothing left of childhood in this land, in the way of young, unformed creatures assisted by adults who love them into a future worth being part of. We have forgotten how to be grateful for coming into this world at all, leaving us unworthy of being here. The quality of virtue, meaning that some things and some doings are recognizably better than others, was deceitfully replaced by the equity of nothing being allowed to be better than anything else. Truth and beauty have gone outlaw. Bad faith and wickedness rule, led by a Party of Chaos. So, really, what do you expect? And what do you deserve?"

Under SOCIALISM nursing homes will never be shut down because they will be collectively funded

A democratic socialist government in the USA would guarantee that nursing homes will not be shut down for " going broke ". Most nursing homes today are based on a big business FOR PROFIT foundation. Under SOCIALISM all these nursing homes will be collectively funded . The present day owners will be entitled to NOTHING for all their greedy exploitation enterprise. If they object in less than a civil way they will be sent to a SOCIALIST assisted living facility for state prisoners.

" Texas school shooting begs the question: ' Where is God ' ? "

[ We all pray too religiously. God is big enough to handle our laments, complaints, and questions.] [ "Are you dead, God? "This is how Habakkuk opens his prayer to God (Habakkuk 1:1-11). Pray as the Old Testament prophet Habakkuk prayed: Are you really who you say you are God? (Habakkuk 1:12-2:20). Pour out your heart to God in prayer for the families of Uvalde, and use raw words. Our religious clichés will not be of help. Bumper sticker theology or fortune cookie comments? Vacuous. We need the raw presence of God .... " ] I like the way Albert Camus handled this question in his philosophy of THE ABSURD . A character in his novel " The Plague " just tries to be " a saint without God " despairing of finding any absolute or mystical meaning in life. Perhaps the French philosopher Pascal was right about God and the ultimate goodness of CREATION. A strong religious instinct ( which I hear from credible sources is a " sanity saver " ) compels many to make that Pascalian " LEAP OF FAITH " . Surviving a Nazi death camp Viktor Frankl wrote " Man's Search for Meaning " and -amazingly - still found that many Jewish death camp survivors -including himself - could still believe in God but in a less childish, more contemplative way. Saint Paul in his New Testament epistles clearly sees a CHRISTIAN virtue in BLIND FAITH in Jesus and HIS resurrection. Well this FAITH finally -in just a few centuries - triumphed over the Roman Empire. And still survives inspiring millions two thousand years later. NOTE : Roman Catholic theology has a lot to say about the mystery of human suffering on this side of paradise. I do think that the metaphysical argument for a CREATOR was only reinforced by that scientifically established MOMENT OF CREATION - called the BIG BANG . But the rest is mostly just a LEAP OF FAITH . The human soul prefers ultimate MEANING to ultimate MEANINGLESSNESS. [ 25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”] 27 She said to Him, “Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.” #FoxNews Texas school shooting begs the question: Where is God?

Introducing the new , revolutionary secular, ZIONIST Jew SCIENCE for American public schools

Years ago the United Nations condemned ZIONISM as a form of racism . Oddly enough, the pillars of WOKE " Critical Race Theory " in the nation's public schools are mostly secular, anti-religious , often anti-Christian ZIONIST Jews. They do not apply CRT to APARTHEID Israel. In many other ways they have invented ,in alliance with the obnoxious New Atheism , a new secular, Zionist Jew SCIENCE , revising even old TRUTH in biology : for example , sex-gender is just a social construct. I recall that the great biologist Charles Darwin devotes a whole section in his " Origin of the Species " to " SEXUAL SELECTION ". In the elite Ivy League schools today Darwin stands corrected . And Catholic theology is just plain anathema -the essence of HATE not New Testament LOVE !

American war propaganda always implies that our ruling class , our plutocracy , is on a higher moral level than other nation-state elites.

American war propaganda always implies that our ruling class , our plutocracy , is on a higher moral level than other nation-state elites. To be sure, our EMBEDDED journalists show a certain perfected moral hypocrisy in their reporting from war fronts. In those elite colleges and universities that they attended they must have taken advanced courses in smug, lying sophistry. At the very beginning of their " successful " careers in " journalism " ( ? ) they signed on as FRIENDS of the capitalist ruling class and ENEMIES of the common people. In all their " smart " articles and columns TRUTH is an annoying antagonist. Only in upper class social circles are they loved and appreciated. In general , the American ruling class has -in just a few decades - fostered the most docile, subservient, dishonest caste of professional writers , journalists , scholars , and university intellectuals in human history. These are the people hired to sell WAR to the common people of the United States. To use a phrase of sociologist C. Wright Mills , author of " The Power Elite ", their stock in trade is " crackpot realism " - even in the matter of nuclear World War III . Follow THEM ?

After his usual hypocritical speeches against VIOLENCE and HATE as practiced on the streets of the USA , senile, stupid , corrupt " Sleepy Joe " Biden WARNS ( backed by the U.S. nuclear arsenal ! ) China , WARNS Russia. Of course , in " OUR democracy " working class people -the vast majority of the population - are not consulted on the wisdom of American foreign policy , not consulted on just WHO is and WHO is not a despicable enemy of " OUR democracy ". In no capitalist nation-state on the planet do ordinary working class people plan wars or threaten wars or start wars. WARS are function of the country's ruling class. This capitalist ruling class never goes to war for any high ideals as implied in all this Wilsonian blather , all those cant words and phrases which were stale and false way back in 1917 . Once more " make the world safe for democracy " , FREE WORLD , SOVEREIGN nation ? The working class does not start wars . But it can stop them . Recall the 1917 Revolution in Russia - " Ten Days That Shook The World " . But consider POST-COMMUNIST Russia some 30 years after the collapse of the STALINIST Soviet Union. . What has CAPITALISM done to improves the lives of the Russian working class ? Perhaps CZAR Putin will be replaced by a second Lenin, Lenin II ? Who will lead a more efficient COMMUNIST government . What could make NATO happier ? And what IS capitalism doing now for the American working class ? Do they feel some emotional attachment to capitalism and imperialism , to daily exploitation and oppression and daily threats of nuclear World War III ?

@Ron Ruggieri you wrote a book and I can't comment on all that but I agree with one thing you said the need for more than two political parties is a good idea. Capitalism is what has made this country great, of course we have problems within capitalism because you Ike me are a flawed person .what other nation has contributed so much to society and its because capitalism has made up wealthy compared to other countries, free enterprise allows inventions etc to help the whole world. Iknow of no other syst that has done so much for so many, maybeypu can give me example of what you suggest.

Dr. Fauci -sad to say - represents the corruption of American SCIENCE in the interest of the FOR PROFIT health care industry.

Most thinking Americans would probably be a lot less cynical about vaccines if they were not a mostly FOR PROFIT enterprise. We are still a long way from HEALTH CARE AS A BASIC HUMAN RIGHT in capitalist USA. As for the TRUTH about Dr. Fauci I highly recommend Robert F. Kennedy Jr. book " The Real Antony Fauci ".

@Gary Cable How did American capitalism manage to be more benevolent ( the opinion of WORKING CLASS Americans ? ) than capitalism is in POST-COMMUNIST Russia ?

@Gary Cable How did American capitalism manage to be more benevolent ( the opinion of WORKING CLASS Americans ? ) than capitalism is in POST-COMMUNIST Russia ? Was it the WISDOM of our Founding Fathers ? The wonder of " OUR democracy " ? Anybody not living under a rock ( even a very comfortable , luxurious one ) knows that CAPITALISM is hardly a workers paradise for the vast majority of exploited and oppressed working class people in the United States. And way back in 1965 Black Muslim leader Malcolm X made a connection between RACISM and capitalism , between RACISM and imperialism. In a letter to his wife circa 1953 Martin Luther King said he was leaning toward some form of CHRISTIAN socialism. In truth, all forms of SOCIALISM are anathema in the TWO PARTY SYSTEM of the United States -both parties completely subservient to the American plutocracy. My favorite Malcolm X quote : " Show me a capitalist and I will show you a blood sucker ". For several decades now the capitalists of the world have deluded themselves that somehow ( by the grace of Adam Smith and the FREE MARKET ? ) the internal contradictions of capitalism -which Marx wrote about with unmatched intellectual authority - just went away after the collapse of STALINISM in the old Soviet Union. That HISTORY had , in fact ended ! Their fatuous euphoria has come to another GREAT DEPRESSION end . Decaying capitalism needs a foreign enemy! For years now the Democratic Party has promoted the HATE RUSSIA, New McCarthyism . And it shows now complete contempt for the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization. The so called " socialists " in the silly WOKE Democratic Party imagine that rotten capitalism can somehow be saved and humanized by their phony " Far Left " led by old phony " socialist " Bernie Sanders . What working class people really need in capitalist USA is their own -independent of the ruling class - Labor Party - like the British Labor Party but much more CLASS CONSCIOUS ferocious. This American Labor Party party would never serve as cheer leaders for any future American imperialist wars - nor would it show any jackass enthusiasm for a forever SOVEREIGN Ukraine whose present leader Zelensky is the belligerent , war mongering puppet of effete , moribund , rotting NATO.

["Those who conceived this war want only one thing — to remain in power forever, live in pompous tasteless palaces, sail on yachts comparable in tonnage and cost to the entire Russian Navy, enjoying unlimited power and complete impunity," he said. "To achieve that they are willing to sacrifice as many lives as it takes. Thousands of Russians and Ukrainians have already died just for this." ] Boris Bondarev's words . He is describing POST-COMMUNIST Russia led by CAPITALIST " Czar " Putin . Would now CAPITALIST Russia be improved by instructions and guidance from " OUR democracy " ? Our corrupt TWO PARTY SYSTEM which serves our plutocracy . Are our CIA , FBI, Pentagon War Crimes Machine , " Deep State " , Homeland Security on a higher moral level than the Russian oligarchy ? Speaking as a democratic socialist I must ask : what has crude CAPITALISM done for the Russian working class ? What is crude , irrational , profoundly unjust CAPITALISM doing for the American working class ? In either country, the United States or Russia , do ordinary working class people plan wars, threaten wars, start wars ? No, but they can stop them . Which is what the Russian working class did in 1917 - those legendary " Ten Days That Shook The World " , that triumphant socialist revolution led by Lenin. Have you had a whiff of " OUR democracy " lately ? Does not our plutocracy " live in pompous tasteless palaces " , start wars in THEIR interests ?

Nothing is more obvious yet unreported : the very pillars of the silly WOKE curriculum in the nation's public schools are secular, often anti-religious , often anti-Christian  ZIONIST Jews politically loyal to the " progressive " , " liberal " , WOKE Democratic Party.  Sincere CHRISTIANS have been frozen out .

            For decades now this pseudo-LEFT has scorned the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization.  It scorns quite boldly FREEDOM OF RELIGION .

Ordinary working class people do not plan wars, or threaten wars, or start wars. But as in the Russian Revolution of 1917 they often END WARS .

We democratic socialists teach that Democrat president Joe Biden or any Republican president of the United States - above all- serves the interests of the American ruling class, the American plutocracy. Ordinary working class people do not plan wars, or threaten wars, or start wars. But as in the Russian Revolution of 1917 they often END WARS . THEIR interests are not our interests. THEIR democracy is not " OUR democracy " . Only the most phony " socialists " will be cheer leaders for any imperialist war.

A WOKE Catholic Church in the USA today can only be claimed by the Anti- Christ

Traditional Catholicism was corrupted by adaption to American capitalism and even American militarism a long long time ago. One can only respect Catholic bishops who actually expect high up , high society individuals like Nancy Pelosi to take 2000 year old moral precepts seriously. The notorious American militarist Francis Cardinal Spellman was himself no " Prince of Peace ". The older generation, Pre-Vatican II Catholics were characterized by a soul saving unworldliness . I guess that all ended with dazzling JFK - the first Catholic president . His mother " Rose " did seem to be a " good Catholic " putting up , rosary in hand , with Old Joe's infidelity . A student of popular American literature will get a vivid idea of the tensions between Catholic and American in the novels and short stories of James T. Farrell. Farrell himself - whatever remained of his Catholic faith - evolved into a radical socialist and even befriended the exiled Russian communist Leon Trotsky.

Re-reading many years later J.D. Salinger's " Catcher in the Rye "

I did re-read " Catcher in the Rye " this week -about 50 pages a night. I recall first reading it as an assignment in a CCRI contemporary literature course. It certainly is an important 20th century novel. I could picture Holden Caulfield way back in 1968 becoming : 1) A heroin addict or hard core alcoholic 2) A drug addict and an early 50s beatnik 3) A New Left communist by 1965 4 ) A mentally disturbed, drug addicted homeless person At the very beginning of " Catcher in the Rye " Holden is clearly a very disturbed " rich boy " adolescent . A classic of capitalist society ALIENATION. I suspect that its author author J.D. Salinger wrote this immortal novel in a state of post traumatic stress - a World War II veteran every bit as borderline psychotic as 16 year old Holden Caulfield. His horny virgin sexual behavior and fantasies ( possible hints of incest fantasy with his ten year old sister Phoebe ? ) Did the " pervert" teacher -friend Mr. Antolini sense latent homosexuality in him ? Those private prep schools for rich kids BREED alienation and mental illness and create in vulnerable adolescents extreme states of LONELINESS and BOREDOM . 16 year old Holden Caulfield desperately needed a warmer FAMILY who could at least SEE him and LISTEN to him . And for a bright enough kid in a respected private school Holden is strangely IGNORANT . For example , he imagines that fish in a Central Park pond must be frozen in the ice in winter time. Ponds rarely freeze all the way to the bottom because of a unique property of water . You learn that in the 6th grade. In sizing up friends and acquaintances rich boy Holden is unware of his own rather insensitive snobbery. I can't see how any mentally balanced adolescent reading " Catcher in the Rye " today would see this disturbed Holden character as worthy of emulation - unless that reader thinks nervous break downs- and being unable to focus or CONCENTRATE on anything creative and constructive. Even young Holden Caulfield's constant SMOKING is annoying .

What slobs!

As a democratic socialist I think Timothy Snyder is peddling stale Wilsonian blather : Once again " a war to make the world safe for democracy " ? More cant words and phrases from corrupt bourgeois academia : " FREE WORLD " , " OUR democracy " , " SOVEREIGN nations ". Perhaps the next war will indeed be " the war to end all wars ". What does Snyder recommend for POST-COMMUNIST Russia ? A marvelous TWO PARTY SYSTEM such as we are blessed with here in the United States ? How odd that democratic socialism is as anathema in capitalist America as it is in POST-COMMUNIST Russia. And what has capitalism done for the Russian people ? We know what it is doing for the American people - for the working class and a once solid middle class now being ruined by INFLATION FREE FALL . Real democratic socialists, as well as traditional Marxists , condemn all forms of toxic nationalism and preach SOCIALIST INTERNATIONALISM to the masses . It follows from this alone that they condemn Zionist APARTHEID Israel . Years ago the United Nations condemned ZIONISM as a form of racism. We note that belligerent , secular , often anti-religious , often anti-Christian ZIONIST Jews are instigating nuclear World War III with Russia. And presently they are smothering anti -war opinion in " OUR democracy ", slobbering over the NATO puppet Ukrainian president Zelensky. And as for evil " HATE " - a favorite theme of the " progressive " WOKE Democrats - THEY have promoted the HATE RUSSIA , New McCarthyism since losing the 2016 presidential to Republican Donald Trump. And in the culture wars they are promoting nonsense worthy of the Orwellian Ministry of Truth . " Critical Race Theory " , for example - which they never apply to APARTHEID Israel ! To be sure , no working class CHRISTIAN Americans will support high placed, belligerent ZIONIST Jews mocking the fundamental principle of popular democracy : MAJORITY RULE. The man who pledged to be " guardian angel of Israel " , Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer , should think about this .

Yes, " Don't Trust Anybody Over Thirty " ? The wisdom of it reconsidered

The mainstream news media will NEVER connect a major social problem like this - FOOD FOR INFANTS ! - with the fundamental irrationality and unfairness of the CAPITALIST system , with a superstitious belief in the wisdom of the FREE MARKET. All the bought and sold politicians in the Congress of the United States - Democrats and Republicans - are screened out very early in their careers for a negative attitude toward FOR PROFIT enterprise. No doubt even in college , university , law school , they are WARNED not show much CRITICAL THINKING SKILL on the subject of sacrosanct PRIVATE PROPERTY . There was what I thought was a rather dumb slogan in the early part of the Tumultuous Sixties : " Don't Trust Anybody Over Thirty ". Now at age 74 I can see the kernel of wisdom in it . A few years into their precious careers most ambitious , social climbing graduates of higher education institutions in the United States have forgotten or deeply repressed any serious social criticism of the capitalist system they once encountered. To be sure , no serious SOCIALISM can survive in the Democratic Party . So when they run for public office on the city , state , or national level they only have to offer as a SOLUTION to serious social ills their narcissistic PERSONALITY charms and their touching SELF-APPRECIATION to the voters . " Vote for ME as I am so much NICER than my opponent ". And how can YOU know this ? Just TRUST the darlings !

As a long time democratic socialist I have observed that the WOKE , " liberal " , " progressive " Democratic Party promotes HATE even more effectively -having more access to the mainstream news media - than extremely marginal designated HATE groups - " WHITE supremacists " , " anti-Semites " , etc. ). Even before Republican Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016 ( a real shocker for the WOKES ! ) the Democratic Party was promoting the HATE RUSSIA , New McCarthyism. Now this deranged HATE carries over into their belligerent foreign policy. I doubt very much if working class CHRISTIAN Americans will ever get all fired up - by Wilsonian blather - over the necessity for a forever SOVEREIGN ( under NATO ! ) Ukraine .

Puritan moral indignation in Jan.7 1917 Evening Tribune ( Rhode Island newspaper )

" Apparently there is growing belief among the lawless that Roger Williams Park after dark on a winter's night is like the world east of Suez " where there ain't no ten commandments "

Nothing dramatic about Elon Musk now favoring the Republican Party

We democratic socialists always pointed out that the capitalist TWO PARTY SYSTEM never fails to serve and guard the fundamental interests of the American plutocracy . So there is nothing dramatic here about Elon Musk now favoring the Republican Party . No more in the USA than in any other present day nation state do ordinary working class people plan or start wars, or form " entangling alliances " with other bourgeois capitalist based nation-states. Presently NATO is trying to unify and expand at the expense of POST-COMMUNIST Russia. You have to be quite naive to believe that these nation states - all controlled by plutocrats like Elon Musk - are a force for FREEDOM and DEMOCRACY and for forever SOVEREIGN nation states on this planet. On what GREAT PRINCIPLES is the NATO alliance opposed to POST-COMMUNIST Russia ? Their plutocrats are on a higher moral level than the Russian oligarchy ? How many of these self-righteous NATO powers are remembered as cruel , exploiting , occupying powers of once colonized , still hardly " sovereign ", THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES today ? For example, the war criminal ZIONIST Jew Henry Kissinger arranged the assassination ( through CIA intrigue ) of the democratically elected Marxist president of Chile , Salvador Allende in 1973 . So much for SOVEREIGN Chile ! Yet the United States ruling class has not won a significant war since 1945 . And that they won with a heinous war crime - the atomic bombing of two Japanese cities , Hiroshima and Nagasaki . Today there seems to be not a few ZIONIST Jews ( with Kissinger as a mentor ) in high places instigating nuclear World War III with Russia. But what do ordinary CHRISTIAN working class people really think in the United States and in the Ukraine ?

" RIPTA to eliminate beach bus service this summer "

1 min · YouTube · Shared with Public A small state like Rhode Island should have a very efficient public transportation system. People who don't own cars should be able to get ANYWHERE in the state - to the beaches, for example, or just to their first , second. or third shift jobs. The management of RIPTA must have the social sensitivity of reptiles not to see the cruelty and the unfairness of depriving mostly poor inner city people of a way to get to the beach on hot summer days. How much smoldering anger here will produce the likes of the Watts Riots decades ago in the United States ? In many other ways the RIPTA management is showing insensitivity , possible corruption , and incompetence. For example, it is very inconvenient for regular RIPTA riders to have the EXACT change before boarding the bus. And you can't even save a buck on transfers anymore.

All " liberal " talk about ending or fighting HATE in class divided society is charlatan drivel. Leave it to the presently war mongering mainstream news media to judge who is naughty and who is nice - with NBC lackey Chuck Todd setting himself up as the " Decency Czar " ? For years now the Democratic Party has promoted the HATE RUSSIA , New McCarthyism . And Bernie Sanders has gone along with it , never challenging any BIG LIE of the DNC . And if you imagine yourself to be a SCIENTIFIC socialist , how can you stomach all this vicious and daffy " identity politics " and WOKE nonsense like " Critical Race Theory ," or the non-recognition of DNA based sex type ? And as a democratic socialist I don't think most working class women are obsessed with Roe vs. Wade fanaticism . How kind of the WOKE Democrats : if you are too poor to have a child , you can kindly terminate it in the womb and never get depressed about it . Of course , the Founding Fathers anticipated this gloomy " right " ! Any felt NEED for abortion -most of the time - can be traced to the UNFAIRNESS OF LIFE - the essence of capitalism. I suspect the PRO CHOICE crowd is more inspired by right wing Ayn Rand and " The Virtue of Selfishness " than by left wing Betty Friedan and " The Feminine Mystique " .

" US Faces Nationwide Baby Formula Shortage " And why ?

· YouTube · Shared with Public Do any of the so called " socialists " in the Democratic Party ever make a real moral condemnation of CAPITALISM as our cruel and irrational economic system ? Do they also think deep down that FOR PROFIT capitalism -in ALL things - is the eternal rule for " OUR democracy " , OUR way of life ? Long before wonderful capitalism - for say some 100 , 000 years- human parents knew how to feed their children . THEIR infants were as precious to them as YOUR babies are today to you. This delusion that the FREE MARKET GENIE will solve all problems , without HUMAN conscience and HUMAN consciousness getting involved at all, is now just plain MORAL INSANITY. The RIGHT TO LIFE definitely applies here. Not the right to make a profit ! Babies are precious , innocent beings.

A real INFLATION cure ?

Republican zealots imagine that there are all sorts of crypto-socialists in the Democratic Party . But as a lifelong democratic socialist I never find any falsely branded " socialists " - like Bernie Sanders- who actually offer systemic criticism of the capitalist system and morally condemn it . A century ago almost any real socialist , for example , would point out the rather obvious truth that ordinary working class people do not plan or start wars . WARS are a function of the ruling class. And nothing contributes to monstrous INFLATION as much as the monstrous Pentagon War Crimes Machine. If blue collar " skilled" workers waste their lives building billion dollar nuclear submarines - one after another, one year after another- nothing of equivalent EXCHANGE VALUE appears on the FREE MARKET of the world. The money earned by the nuclear submarine workers must chase after pre-existing commodities. Even President Eisenhower - warning about the sinister military industrial complex- could see this happening as a HUMAN catastrophe apart from war itself. The war industries simply do not create VALUE even if they create JOBS !

Very soon a revived anti-war movement will be heard in the streets of the United States -too loud to ignore !

A while back Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer pledged to be " guardian angel " for Zionist APARTHEID Israel . He and fellow belligerent ZIONIST Jew Zelensky of the Ukraine -and the present American Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken - must constitute a mutual admiration society. Do CHRISTIAN working class Americans get all fired up over a forever SOVEREIGN Ukraine ? Since when was this cause the stuff of teary eyed slobbering ? The Ukraine was always connected to RUSSIAN history ! As a democratic socialist I doubt if any ordinary working class Ukrainians were longing for a dangerous and foolish alliance with effete, moribund , and rotting NATO . The ruling class CENSORSHIP of American news media and much social media won't give a break to anti-war public opinion in the United States. So much for FREE SPEECH in " OUR democracy " ! But very soon a revived ANTI-WAR movement will be heard in the streets of the United States - too loud to ignore !

" Clarence Thomas says leak has changed the Supreme Court forever "

From the perspective of democratic socialists - shaped by the great insights of Karl Marx on history and class struggle - the Supreme Court of the United States never was and never will be above the CLASS STRUGGLE , above POLITICS in capitalist America. As important as LAW in general is in the history of Western Civilization it remains -in the final analysis - a tool of the country's ruling class ( always reflecting its variable power relationship vs. the working class. Where does our sacrosanct LAW even recognize economic CLASS and the reality of CLASS STRUGGLE ? Both a pauper and a millionaire can pay $500 for a serious traffic violation . The millionaire might show up one less night at his favorite " Spain Restaurant " . The pauper is one step away from being homeless and living in the street.

APARTHEID Israel is making itself the most hated nation on the planet Earth.

The ZIONIST Jew censors of You Tube will not permit anything resembling FREE SPEECH in support of the dispossessed and oppressed Palestinians . APARTHEID Israel is making itself the most hated nation on the planet Earth. Ukraine president Zelensky brags about his close ties to Israel . Senate Democrat leader Chuck Schumer pledged a while back to be the " guardian angel of Israel ". I suspect very many working class CHRISTIANS in the United States have already begun to UNFRIEND Zionist APARTHEID Israel. They will NOT support nuclear World War III with Russia for a forever SOVEREIGN ( tied to NATO ? ) Ukraine.
