If you read American socialist writer's Irving Howe's book " World of Our Fathers " , you will get a vivid picture of just how many intellectual and working class Jews for a good part of the 20th century gravitated toward socialist-communist political movements. In the past few decades it is not that the LEFT for mysterious reasons has turned anti-Semitic but that formerly LEFT leaning Jews have been corrupted by reactionary ZIONISM. The very idea of an ethnocentric state ( like APARTHEID Israel ) is a mockery even of bourgeois democracy. Was not the NAZI idea based on love of " blood and soil " ?
ZIONIST Israel has corrupted the once sensitive and cosmopolitan Jewish social conscience. For example , here in the United States the once Trotskyist Socialist Workers for decades was firmly opposed to Zionism. A while back this now much decayed party suddenly embraced Zionism . Ironically, the very archives of their newspaper still named " The Militant " contradict its crackpot sectarian politics today. I read back in 1970 they were exposing the FASCIST Jewish Defense League! For them in 2024 the issue is NOT genocide in Gaza, Palestine but growing anti-Semitism in the United States. With Zionist APARTHEID Israel making itself the most hated country on the planet , of course, there will be more perceived " anti-Semitic incidents ".
In no way can SOCIALIST INTERNATIONALISM today reconcile itself with RACIST Zionism. In fact ,years ago the United Nations condemned Zionism as a form of racism . By the way, Marxist historical materialism cannot explain the tragedy of the Jews ? Or is " Jew hatred " some weird virus in the brains of non-Jews- especially Christians - for some 2000 years ?
Ordinary people resent being EXPLOITED and OPPRESSED and SWINDLED by anybody !
I just caught this news article on the WORLD SOCIALIST WEB SITE :
[ "In spite of police assault and threats of expulsion, student-led encampments demanding an end to the genocide in Gaza have continued to spread on university campuses in the United States and internationally over the last 24 hours. As of this writing, over 40 college campuses across 22 states in the US have encampments or protests ongoing. " ]
As a longtime independent democratic socialist I recall the relatively peaceful General Student Strike in 1970 protesting Nixon's invasion of Cambodia. Ultimately Nixon and American imperialism lost the Vietnam War. Today the sun is setting on American imperialism and Israeli Zionism together forever in crimes against humanity. But together they would start nuclear World War III with Iran and POST-COMMUNIST Russia- if WE THE PEOPLE let them .
This much will not happen in the months ahead : THESE students will not be wearing VOTE BIDEN campaign buttons ! The Democratic Party is completely corrupt and decadent .
Among the Jewish people it does seem that multi-millionaire ZIONIST Jews are most vociferous about insidious anti-Semitism. And the arrogant bullies among them intimidate ambitious Ivy League students : how their FREE SPEECH protest against Israeli genocide in GAZA Palestine will ruin their prospects for serious social climbing in Corporate America. To hell with social conscience !
NOTE this NEWS online :[ "Dec 3, 2020 — New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft will not face criminal punishment, but the women he solicited have pleaded guilty to prostitution ..."]
Before he was disgraced and jailed as a sex predator, Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein told an adoring pro-Israel audience at the Simon Wiesenthal Center that Jews should " learn from the Mafia " how to deal with their enemies. They could have got the same advice from the now dead 100 year old ZIONIST Jew war criminal Henry Kissinger .
In general, it is ironic that belligerent ZIONIST Jews set themselves up as righteous judges and censors of HATE SPEECH in " OUR democracy ". The WOKE WARRIOR Zionists gravitate toward the " progressive " Democratic Party. Their Senate leader Chuck Schumer said a while back that he vows to be APARTHEID Israel's " guardian angel ". He could station himself on the Mexican border !
Our mainstream news media routinely suggests that Anti-Zionism IS anti-Semitism. It daily censors anti-war , anti-Zionism American public opinion. Even National Public Radio is shamelessly biased in reporting the news. It is a virtual social club for WOKE " liberal Democrat " Jews who are the very pillars of WOKE ideology that enrages so many working class and middle class Christians in the USA.
Way back in 1965 Black Muslim Malcolm X was warning his Harlem audience that liberal Democrat Jews, always posing as friends of Black Americans, would betray them again and again. Malcolm reflected that he would be called anti-Semitic for voicing this truth . " But the truth is the truth ", he said.
As a longtime independent democratic socialist I think that former president Donald Trump's legal hell only confirms the traditional Marxist view of THE LAW. It invariably represents the sometimes contorted will of the national bourgeoisie . Presently there is an ideological BRAWL ( sometimes physical as on that Jan.6 " day of infamy " ) within the American plutocracy . There is a crisis in their TWO PARTY SYSTEM and they know it. WE THE PEOPLE need our own independent party , an American Labor Party , much like the British Labor Party but less stuffy and compromised.
For the present, INDEPENDENT presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is the lesser of lesser evils; himself a true " Profile in Courage " smeared and blackballed in the mainstream news media. All we are saying is GIVE HIM A CHANCE !
What can be more clear to ordinary Americans : the censors of FREE SPEECH in " OUR democracy " are invariably WOKE WARRIOR " liberal " ( ? ) Democrat ZIONIST Jews ? How ironic that belligerent ZIONISTS set themselves up as the righteous judges and censors of " hate speech " , in general , of American public opinion . Not true ?
I recall the drama of the General Student Strike in 1970. Back then they protested Nixon's invasion of Cambodia. Nixon lost and Vietnam won. Soon : " American imperialism and APARTHEID Israel Zionism lost and Palestine won ! FINALLY the younger generation reacts to government LIES & BRUTALITY ! I commend the Brown students today with their PEACEFUL on campus tent protest and its " OPPOSE GENOCIDE IN GAZA " theme. Do not expect fair coverage from the ESTABLISHMENT news media.

They can bring the uncorrupted SOCIAL CONSCIENCE of YOUTH whatever CLASS , RACE , or ETHNIC group . There are no lack of Jewish students who are not flag wavers for the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu . In the " Tumultuous Sixties " many were openly SOCIALIST scholars . Respect THEM !

As a longtime independent democratic socialist I see this " Trump Trial Circus " confirmation of the Marxist theory of THE LAW in capitalist society . THE LAW is never above CLASS politics. And the JUST JUDGES are never above the influence of the American plutocracy . What has been going on in " OUR democracy " is an ideological BRAWL ( sometimes physical as on that Jan. 6 " day of infamy " ) within the plutocracy . There is a profound crisis of the capitalist TWO PARTY SYSTEM . The complete meltdown approaches before Election Day 2024.
On the whole the ZIONIST Jew political establishment ( mostly based in Joe Biden's WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party ) has aligned itself against populist Republican Donald Trump.
WE THE PEOPLE desperately need our own INDEPENDENT party . Like the British Labor Party only less stuffy and compromised.
The lesser of lesser evils in 2024 presidential campaign USA is INDEPENDENT Robert F. Kennedy Jr.- himself a " Profile in Courage ". No surprise that he is daily blackballed, smeared, and maligned as a " crackpot " in the mainstream news media.
Philosopher Rupert Sheldrake seems to think that modern science is mired in " materialism ". I know that IDEALIST philosophy is more favorable to religious faith ( the biggest mistake of the old Soviet Union was not SOCIALISM. It was religious intolerance, making the state " officially atheist ". Nevertheless, the Marxist " fanatic " (? ) Lenin made a cogent case against IDEALIST philosophy in his now very obscure book titled " Materialism and Empiro Criticism ". Can this IDEALIST philosophy -even if it has certain metaphysical truth - lead to progress in practical science and technology ? And was Lenin right in associating it with a reactionary political outlook ?
I found explanations of dialectical materialism very enlightening ( at some point ,for example, QUANTITY becomes QUALITY ) . But also enlightening are the classic Catholic theologians , Saint Augustine and Thomas Aquinas. I also understand why Aristotle ( a gifted biologist ) is getting more much deserved respect.
I recall a humorous Catholic scholar on his local TV program saying that an " open mind " may not be more of an asset than " open mouth " - it must bite down on something and then assimilate it, connecting it with with well established knowledge.
What I have found obnoxious for years now is the arrogant rudeness of the New Atheism movement. It seems to be promoted and patronized ( perhaps even funded ) by secular ZIONIST Jews with an unbalanced hatred for the Islamic faith. You will see what I mean if you read Christopher Hitchens nasty book titled : " God Is Not Great - how religions poisons everything ". Oddly enough, Hitchens started out as fanatic of Trotskyism . As a hopeless drunk ( scorned by leftist author Gore Vidal ) Hitchens later went over to American imperialism ( in Iraq ) and proudly ( he discovered a Jewish grandmother ! ) embraced Israeli Zionism. So clearly, militant atheism does not necessarily make you less muddle-headed as a HUMAN being. Even charlatan celebrity Christian fundamentalist preacher Joel Osteen gets some things right. Best wishes to philosopher Rupert Sheldrake !
As a longtime independent democratic socialist I recall the drama of the GENERAL STUDENT STRIKE of 1970 in the United States protesting Nixon's invasion of Cambodia. Nixon lost. Vietnam won .
Since when does the " FREE PALESTINE " refrain amount to vile " Jew hatred " ? I commend the Brown students of 2024 protesting Israeli genocide in Gaza, Palestine.
As a longtime independent democratic socialist recalling the General Student Strike of 1970 I was pleased to read that Brown University students in Providence Rhode Island are setting up PROTEST GAZA GENOCIDE tents on campus. Since when does the " FREE PALESTINE ! " refrain amount to vile " Jew hatred " ? The mainstream news media pays no attention to Jewish college students opposed to belligerent Zionism . If the late professor Howard Zinn , author of the popular history textbook " People's History of the United States ", were alive today , do you think he would applaud the police assault on FREE SPEECH rights ? ZIONIST Jews around the world who are vociferous supporters of the APARTHEID Israel together forever with American imperialism naturally will face a serious public relations problem. Their beloved Israel has made itself the most hated country on the planet .
American imperialism can send BILLIONS to the likes of war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel and BILLIONS to the warmonger embezzler V. Zelensky in Ukraine , but it will never raise up enough ground combat troops to " pacify " any region of the planet. WORKING CLASS young people everywhere have no difficulty distinguishing the OPPRESSOR from the OPPRESSED.
The student strike of 1970 protested Nixon's invasion of Cambodia. Recall that Nixon lost, Vietnam won !
Is it not ironic that belligerent ZIONIST Jews in " OUR democracy " should set themselves up as judges and censors of HATE SPEECH ? Just WHICH community are they protecting ? The mainstream news media daily censors anti-war , anti-Zionism public opinion. Are THEY preparing us to vote YES on nuclear World War III with POST-COMMUNIST Russia , with China, Iran, North Korea, even little Venezuela ? Americans imperialism daily WARNS this or that designated enemy not to cross this or that red line. It does seem that leaders of the UNFREE world do not measure up to the lofty idealism of Joe Biden & Son, of Donald Trump & Son in Law , of Bill and Hillary Clinton, of our CIA , FBI, DEEP STATE , Pentagon War Crimes Machine , Homeland Security ?
" OUR democracy " is preparing yet another Great Crusade to save the FREE WORLD with bombs and blather , with stale Wilsonian blather that was false more than a century ago ?
Whenever I hear senile , corrupt old Joe Biden, the Conqueror of Afghanistan , say " DON'T ! " to the dastardly enemies of " OUR democracy " , my blood boils over with patriotic war fever. Does yours ?
It is simply morally atrocious and ridiculous to FINE homeless people- all victims of the daily cruelty of the American capitalist system. As a longtime independent democratic socialist I think that the homeless crisis in the United States ( which now includes numerous homeless migrants ) is on collision course with landlord-capitalist PRIVATE PROPERTY rights.
But even many of the " recognized " homeless people advocates are careful not to mention THE SYSTEM in detailing the condition of homeless people. We hear about how many MILLIONS our state of Rhode Island , for example, has spent so generously on the homeless. Let these obtuse bureaucrats itemize the money spent . Have a list of the NAMES of all the known homeless people in the state. How much funding was EACH given to ameliorate the misery of being homeless in heartless capitalist USA ? They must be expert witnesses to official embezzlement if nothing else !
I like what I read on the WORLD SOCIALIST WEB SITE just now :
" The World Socialist Web Site denounces the enormous escalation of state attacks on protesters, including the mass arrests at Columbia, Yale University and New York University, justified on the basis of lies and slander. We call for the broadest possible mobilization of the working class throughout the US and internationally to oppose this assault on democratic rights and to stop the genocide in Gaza. "
There has been daily censorship of anti-war , anti-ZIONISM public opinion in the United States. You have no friends in President Joe Biden's WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party packed with smug and arrogant " friends of Israel ", of APARTHEID Israel led by the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu .
[ "The May 1970 student strike at the University of Washington was part of a national week of student strikes, organized in reaction to the expansion of the Vietnam War in Cambodia, the killings of student protesters at Kent State University, and “to reconstitute the University as a center for organizing against the war ... " ]
UPDATE 2024 :
The college students protesting Israeli genocide in Gaza, Palestine , should not be intimidated by ZIONIST Jew billionaires.
There should be a general student strike to protest APARTHEID Israel's GENOCIDE in Gaza, Palestine . There was a general student strike in 1970 to protest Nixon's invasion of Cambodia in the Vietnam War . Nixon lost !
As a longtime independent democratic socialist I can only view the many legal trials of former president Donald Trump with a sardonic laugh. It more than confirms the MARXIST view of BOURGEOIS LAW in capitalist USA. Neither THE LAW nor the JUST JUDGES are above the squalor of partisan politics. There has been going on for some time now an ideological BRAWL ( at times physical as on that Jan. 6th " day of infamy " ) within the American plutocracy . There is a deep crisis of the capitalist TWO PARTY SYSTEM while in the bigger world the sun is setting on American imperialism and Israeli Zionism.
Contrary to many souls on the Left , I see the greater threat of " It Can't Happen Here "Fascism coming from Joe Biden's WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party. They have scorned the FREE SPEECH, FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization for decades now with their ideological reign of terror on working class ( non-college graduate ! ) CHRISTIANS . They are ironically like Stalinist Russia in wanting - so it seems - to make the state not neutral toward religion but implacably hostile toward it , to make it like the old Soviet Union " officially atheist ". And ZIONIST Israel has some ardent friends among the obnoxious New Atheists. Of course , they are closer to right wing philosopher Ayn Rand than to the Moses of the Old Testament. Not relying on Exodus ,Ayn Rand, a militant Zionist and author of " The Virtue of Selfishness " , just thought that the Palestinians were inferior to the Jewish settlers!
The PRO-PALESTINE protests are about abominable genocide in Gaza, Palestine carried out by the Zionist APARTHEID state of Israel. Yet the mainstream news media in the United States would have Americans focus on mostly imagined or exaggerated anti-Semitism on college campuses. Long ago the United Nations condemned ZIONISM as a form of racism. Ironically the WOKE WARRIOR Zionist Jews entrenched in the Democratic Party never apply their " Critical Race Theory " to APARTHEID Israel.
Daily equating anti-ZIONISM with anti-Semitism is a New York Times promoted BIG LIE.
Ordinary working class people of all races and ethnic groups have no difficulty distinguishing the OPPRESSOR from the OPPRESSED. No puzzle why BLACK LIVES MATTER rallies in the USA feature Palestinian flag waving .
Also , anti-war , anti -ZIONISM public opinion in " OUR democracy " is daily censored or REMOVED. It is Joe Biden's WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party that has betrayed again and again the FREE SPEECH, FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization .
As judges and censors of HATE SPEECH in the United Stated militant ZIONIST Jews are curiously problematic.
NOTE : Just when and where and in what context were " participants caught on camera supporting violence toward Jewish students " ? Do these " intimidated " Jewish students SUPPORT genocide against Palestinians in Gaza ? Approve sending more BILLIONS of US taxpayer money to the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel ?
As a longtime independent democratic socialist with memories still green of Vietnam War Protest days, I recall that there were often AGENT PROVOCATEURS in our peaceful protest crowds . This is all well documented in the archives of the still existing ( with some ironic changes ) Socialist Workers Party of the United States. TODAY the SWP is shamelessly PRO-ZIONIST ISRAEL . I wonder how that happened !
Getting out of the black car in the video , I strolled to the beach sand at the edge of the water and took in the melancholy, abandoned-look panorama. Thinking the place could inspire a poem of desolation and loneliness. Frequent sad stories of drownings off the notorious sandbar, despite its WARNING sign.
Ron Ruggieri
American imperialism and Israeli Zionism together forever in crimes against humanity. BILLIONS of our tax payer money for the war criminal Netanyahu in APARTHEID Israel ; BILLIONS in our tax payer money for the warmonger ,embezzler Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine.
Ask working class and now " ruined by inflation " middle class Americans if they would vote YES for nuclear World War III ?
While tens of thousands in the USA protest in the streets against genocide in Gaza, Palestine the mainstream new media would focus our concern on mostly exaggerated anti-Semitism on Ivy League college campuses. Anti-ZIONISM is falsely equated with anti-Semitism. A long time ago the United Nations condemned ZIONISM as a form of racism. No puzzle why BLACK LIVES MATTER rallies feature Palestinian flag waving. The WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party has definitely lost the vote and trust of the younger generation. Forget about recruiting them for another stupid and endless war in the Middle East. WOKE WARRIOR Zionists in the Democratic Party never apply their " Critical Race Theory " to Apartheid Israel.
Here in Rhode Island our Senator Sheldon Whitehouse is an AUTHORITY voice of arrogant American imperialism and always showing obtuse understanding of working class Americans.
Are the diehard FREINDS OF ISRAEL enough to get corrupt , senile Joe Biden re-elected in 2024 ?

NOTE : I witnessed a small Pro-Palestine demonstration in Providence , Rhode Island in front of the downtown Textron building on April 15. The next day GO-LOCAL PROVIDENCE suggested that Providence Mayor Smiley ( for tolerating FREE SPEECH ! ) was countenancing vile anti-Semitism in his city . I shared a video " short " of the demonstration on You Tube. At no time did I hear any " anti-Semitic refrains " . I will share this post on my Radical Ron's Blog Spot ( 670,000 + views ) on my Facebook page ( 5000 friends ) and as a letter to the editor of the Providence Journal, the Boston Globe , the New York Times, and the New York Post . And more. The CENSORED posts get the most attention !

[ But it is even worse than that: even assuming that all scientists were competent and honest, what is science for, exactly? Tom Murphy describes the situation in these terms: "Our society approves of these institutions and rewards its practitioners, in part based on the misguided notion that this is where solutions to our problems will originate. Instead, science/technology is far more likely to produce the seed corn for another generation of ecological destruction." And he is basically correct: science doesn't have a "soul." Without a soul, it is little more than a zombie that walks clumsily onward in search of brains to devour. Mostly, it is the brains of students and young researchers, but we all risk being devoured by the reckless attitude of scientists. Most of them seem to stop at nothing while trying to gain prestige and money from whatever they can sell to the public as a solution to the problems that they themselves created not long before.
I still think that, eventually, the zombies will not prevail and that the entity we call "science" will find its purpose again by returning to its origins, when it was called philosophy. It means "love for knowledge," and we could still recover this view. But it will take a long time and probably science will have to go through collapse before it can rebound and return in a new form. It is typical of complex systems. It is the way the universe renovates itself. And if the entire universe does that, it must be because it works well! ]
To any RATIONAL soul the conflicts between nation-states continued well into the 21st century are quite senseless. Science proved that the DNA of ALL human being is fundamentally alike and not much different from that of monkeys. The industry and much of the culture of all nation states is based on modern science and technology . Is it morally scandalous that a great nation like modern China can produce excellent steal and aluminum -just as the USA -and they want to sell it on the world market ? American imperialism commands China to " stop over-producing " !
Endless babble about the eternal right of Israel to EXIST ! What nation, calling itself DEMOCRATIC , on this planet has an exclusive ethno-centric foundation ? A JEWISH state is a mockery even bourgeois democracy !
Humane people protesting the genocide in Gaza, Palestine think that Israel should cease to exist as an APARTHEID abomination . What is anti-Semitic about that ?
Not as a Trump fan, not as Biden fan, but as I long time independent democratic socialist, I think the Trump Trial is joke and a mockery of THE LAW. It proves what Marxists have said for years : in capitalist America THE LAW and those oh so JUST JUDGES are never above filthy politics. What is really going on now ,since 2016 , is an ideological BRAWL ( sometimes physical as on that January 6 " day of infamy " ) WITHIN the American ruling class. There is a profound crisis of THEIR TWO PARTY SYSTEM which could make the 2024 presidential election a horrendous meltdown
Remember after the 2016 presidential election shockingly won by Donald Trump the mainstream news media never stopped smearing the election as a Russia-Collusion conspiracy. In fact it was at least as legitimate as Joe Biden's 2020 Election victory.
We democratic socialists have always taught that ALL elections in capitalist America are rigged in favor of the plutocracy ( which always plays politics to win ) . Not for nothing THIRD PARTIES on the left or on the right do not stand a chance. For now I give critical support to that lesser of " lesser evils " Robert F. Kennedy Jr.- himself a true " Profile in Courage " blackballed and smeared by the mainstream news media.
Daily the strident voice of American imperialism WARNS Russia , WARNS China, WARNS Iran, WARNS North Korea , even WARNS Venezuela : " DO NOT CROSS ANY LINES SET BY THE RULING CAPITALIST CLASS OF THE UNITED STATES ". What WE THE PEOPLE actually think about Pentagon war plans seems beneath consideration. What matters is what ALL -AMERICAN MILITARISM -now directed by belligerent ZIONIST Jews - what THEY want ?
No surprise that moribund American imperialism has a serious recruiting problem. Too many young people with sense do not picture themselves as unheroic cannon fodder for the likes of corrupt , senile , creepy , " Sleepy Joe " Biden , the Conqueror of Afghanistan ; the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in APARTHHEID Israel ; the warmonger embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine.
Stale Wilsonian blather that was false more than a century ago will not succeed now in arousing jackass war fever in a more and more cynical American population .
Risk nuclear World War III to " fix " POST-COMMUNIST Russia ? Nuts !
" Anti-Semitic incidents " as defined and reported by a very pro-ZIONIST Israel news media are less than highly credible. I witnessed that PRO-PALESTINE demonstration in downtown Providence , Monday April 15 and made a brief video of it. The THEME of the protest circle in front of the Textron building was" STOP THE GENOCIDE IN GAZA". I heard no " antisemitic refrains". But headline in GO-LOCAL , PROVIDENCE ( Wednesday , April 17) : " Is Smiley Administration Adding to Anti-Semitism in Providence ". Rather biased , don't you think ? In general , the mainstream news media in " OUR democracy " virtually defines anti-Zionism as anti-Semitism ". Humane people who think that yes, Israel should cease to exist AS AN APARTHEID STATE do not have demented visions of a Neo-Nazi fate for " THE JEWS " in our time. Way back in 1970 I recall SOCIALIST organizations, with a record of opposition to FASCISM, protesting Zionist APARTHEID Israel.

[Among Tesla’s quirks was his fondness for pigeons. When living in New York, he spent hours each week feeding pigeons in the park and routinely took home any that were injured so he could nurse them back to health. He often kept the windows open in the hotel suite in which he lived so pigeons could visit when they wished, resulting in a horrible mess. He once even asked a hotel chef to prepare a special mix of seeds for his feathered friends. Tesla’s acquaintances found his passion for pigeons puzzling because the inventor was a well-known germophobe.
Tesla never married, but he admitted to falling in love with a very special white pigeon that visited him regularly. He reportedly said, “I loved that pigeon as a man loves a woman, and she loved me. As long as I had her, there was a purpose to my life.”]
Hi Ron,
[ " Another excellent moment of "photojournalism"! I understand that many forms of animal life are 'drawn' to "spiritual-type" humans who possess a deep reverence for nature. This woman has that gift. So did St. Francis. And so did this woman (see attached photo) whom I photographed on the steps of St. Peter's Basilica back in the winter of 1999.
"Feed the Birds", sung by Julie Andrews in Mary Poppins comes to mind. "]
I have an amusing footnote to this video , Steve :
Has not nearly every prominent Black WOKE WARRIOR Democrat been sponsored mentored, patronized, promoted, and CONTROLLED by an inner circle of WOKE WARRIOR Democrat ZIONIST Jews ? Way back in 1965 Black Muslim Malcolm X warned his Harlem audiences to be cynical of the " friendship " of affluent " liberal " Jews. This is detailed in any number of Malcolm X biographies. Malcolm said : " Let them call me anti-Semitic but the truth is the truth ". Today anti-war public opinion in " OUR democracy " encounters this irony : belligerent ZIONIST Jews set themselves up as judges and censors of " hate speech " ( really meaning any ideas and opinions that rub them the wrong way ) .
By the way , Malcom X made a connection between racism and capitalism, between racism and American imperialism . My favorite Malcolm X quote : " Show me a capitalist and I will show you a blood-sucker ! "
200 million working class Catholic- Christians on the brink of a moral - political epiphany: they are fed up with a decades long reign of ideological terror afflicted on them by WOKE WARRIOR Democrat secular, anti-Christian ZIONIST Jews.
Who else do you think are the pillars of WOKE ideology in " OUR democracy " ? In our prestigious Ivy League universities saying that boys are boys and girls are girls is like George Orwell's character Winston Smith in the " 1984 " nightmare saying as a THOUGHT CRIME that 2+2 =4 when Big Brother knows better. The WOKE WARRIOR Democrats are much more like STALINISTS ( without the " socialism ) . For decades now they have turned away from the working class and even the fundamental principle of ANY democracy : MAJORITY RULE. Today they scorn the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization. They would censor as deplorable " hate speech " CHRISTIAN teaching that is 2000 years old.
Oddly enough, the WOKE WARRIOR Democrats are coming into conflict with SCIENCE as much as FAITH . Both SCIENCE and Catholic theology share a common belief in OBJECTIVE REALITY.
Even as a socialist pacifist I can only wonder how believing in NOTHING but the MONEY GOD can inspire combat troops in any future war . In the past brave men would sacrifice their lives for their GOD , their FAMILY , their WOMEN and CHILDREN , their WAY OF LIFE , and THEIR land. . Today in " OUR democracy " they are asked to sacrifice their lives for HOLY WOKE ideals - like the Trans-Gender, LGBTQ Enlightenment . Under this banner they can certainly conquer Islam for the glory of " Greater Israel " !
200 million working class Christians on the brink of a moral - political epiphany: they are fed up with a decades long reign of ideological terror afflicted on them by WOKE WARRIOR Democrat secular, anti-Christian ZIONIST Jews.

NPR is a virtual social club for WOKE WARRIOR " liberal " Democrat ZIONIST Jews. National Public Radio has never ceased to be a pillar of American imperialism and Israeli Zionism. It is utterly out of touch with working class CHRISTIAN America -and utterly hostile to it. Anti-war public opinion in " OUR democracy " encounters this irony : belligerent ZIONIST Jews set themselves up as judges and censors of " hate speech " . My own experience of this suggests that " hate speech " for them is this : any ideas and opinions that rub them the wrong way. So " OUR democracy " really does need National Public Radio, don't we ? Any listeners who imagine that NPR promotes " socialism " is curiously deluded . There may be a few former socialists who betrayed the ideas and ideals of socialism a long, long time ago. They are now even tone deaf to the FREE SPEECH, FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization . TURN NPR OFF !
200 MILLION working class CHRISTIANS in " OUR democracy " are ready to collectively say NO to Zionist APARTHEID Israel , NO to its genocide agenda Gaza , Palestine. Soon ONLY the ZIONIST " community " in the United States will celebrate ZIONISM and genocide in Gaza ! Long ago the United Nations condemned Zionism as a form of racism .
Thinking not as a Trump fan or a Biden fan but as a longtime independent democratic socialist , I do see former president Donald Trump being PERSECUTED not PROSECUTED by bourgeois judges subservient to the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party which for years now has scorned the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization. There is an ideological brawl going on within the American plutocracy. Its ZIONIST Jew wing- backed by the mainstream news media led by the New York Times- is plainly out to " Get Trump ". Just ask celebrity lawyer Alan Dershowitz . There is a deadly serious crisis of the TWO PARTY SYSTEM which could wreck the 2024 presidential election.
The Cult of Celebrity in American capitalist society serves this lofty purpose : to help sell mostly dubious good and services; to reinforce the propaganda of always sanctimonious American militarism together forever with Israeli Zionism. The local radio talk show celebrities all daily slobber over program sponsors while promoting ideas & opinions not out of line with Pentagon war plans.
How many Hollywood film scripts show any really creative INDEPENDENT thinking , any serious social criticism that does not resonate with the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party ?

World War III between China and American imperialism will never happen. Although our nation's incurable militarism daily WARNS numerous designated enemies of " OUR democracy " , the plutocracy cannot now amass enough ground combat troops to decide the outcome of World War III - certainly not nuclear World War III. No puzzle why there is a serious military recruiting problem in " The Land of the Free and Home of the Brave ". I suspect young people just have more sense in the USA of 2024. They do not offer themselves up as cannon fodder for likes of war criminal Netanyahu in Zionist APARTHEID Israel or for warmonger embezzler V. Zelensky in his " Greater Israel " Ukraine. Just try drafting them !
And just picture corrupt , senile , creepy , " SleepyJoe " Biden , the Conqueror of Afghanistan , as our next great wartime leader ! What a joke !
All that stale Wilsonian blather that was false more than a century ago still plays an indispensable role in making the world safe for " OUR democracy " . Will it still succeed in sending LIFE inexperienced young men to their death , sending them home as mental and physical cripples ? If only they had read , so I reflect , Dalton Trumbo's " Johnny Got His Gun " ! Or a few works of Karl Marx ?
[The inscriptions on the base of the monument strike a balance
between expressing a desire for peace and a feeling of responsibility
for protecting democratic ideals. They were suggested oy former Brown
University President William H.P. Faunce (Samson 1930:12). The
inscription on the southeast face is as follows:
[ "By this memorial the City of Providence commemorates the
loyal courage and fidelity of all her citizens who served
in the World War whose high example still suirmons us to
love and serve our country."
On the northeast side is inscribed:
"So nigh is grandeur to our dust,
So near is God to man.
When duty whispers low, "Thou must*
The youth replies, 'I can'." - Emerson.]
I view this trial of Donald Trump not as a Trump fan nor as a WOKE WARRIOR " liberal " Democrat. I view it as a longtime independent democratic socialist. For me it only confirms the cynical Marxist view of THE LAW in capitalist society. Neither THE LAW nor the JUST JUDGES are ever above the politics of a plutocracy with its bitter internal conflict often enough .
There is a crisis of the capitalist TWO PARTY SYSTEM . There is an ideological BRAWL ( sometimes physical as on the Jan.6 " day of infamy " . The actual CONTENT of this " brawl " is outside the interests of the American working class and most of an increasingly " ruined " middle class.
For me right now INDEPENDENT presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is at least the lesser of all " lesser evils ". But he has been smeared ( " crackpot " ? " anti-Semitic " ? ) and blackballed by the mainstream news media which arrogantly sets itself up as a judge and censor of both TRUTH and " hate speech " while fomenting nuclear World War III with POST-COMMUNIST Russia and Iran . Add China and North Korea . The leaders of the UNFREE WORLD do not live up to the high moral standards of " OUR democracy ", of Joe Biden & Son, of Donald Trump & Son in Law, , of Bill and Hillary Clinton, of Senate leader Chuck Schumer ( who said he wants to be " guardian angel " of APARTHEID Israel ) of the CIA , FBI, DEEP STATE, Pentagon War Crimes Machine ?
So VOTE YES for nuclear World War III ? Either Trump or Biden will do !
American imperialism is nervous about a war escalation in the Middle East and in Europe. They know that our military just cannot amass enough ground combat troops to decide the outcome of World War III. Too many negative views of the American military ( which has sabotaged recruiting ) on the home front. Also , Zionist APARTHEID Israel, not Iran, has made itself the most hated country on the planet . Israel as a nation state is quite ridiculous even by the standards of bourgeois democracy : what other " democracy " has an ethno-centric foundation ? Try fitting this into a " democratic " constitution ! By divine decree a particular people claim the real estate of a whole country ?

We democratic socialists know where the charlatan " celebrity "psychiatrist, Dr. Phil , is coming from : Whatever social system smacks of Marxism has been anathema to the American ruling class for more than a century , since the " Ten Days That Shook The World " Russian Revolution of 1917. The profession of psychiatry in the United States has been ideologically corrupted by its entrenched belief that CONFORMITY , adjustment to capitalism constitutes MENTAL HEALTH. How many professional American psychiatrists ever read socialist humanist psychiatrist Erich Fromm's book " The Sane Society " ?
With very few exceptions PRIVILEGED people in " OUR democracy " think that a world in which THEY feel comfortable and secure - the world of most " Culture of Narcissism " celebrities, like Dr. Phil - is the best of all possible worlds .
In no way was a mere beginning of " socialism " in the old Soviet Union just an " experiment " that failed miserably . The bourgeoisie of the " Free World " were determined to overthrow it or sabotage it or smother it in its infancy. By 1921 Leon Trotsky's Red Army had defeated them -at least temporarily . Trotsky later explained how the revolution was betrayed. He was assassinated by a Stalinist agent in Mexico in 1940 just when the conflagration of World War II was spreading over all of Old Europe.
The German philosopher Hegel wrote before Karl Marx that everything that exists ( which must include the economic order of capitalism ) is worthy of perishing .
With almost mathematical logic and cogency Karl Marx proved that capitalist wage slavery was much like ancient slavery . It is based on the EXPLOITATION of human labor and on the political oppression of the working class. Without lies and brutality this system could not survive another day.
Even 19th century physics made it clear that you cannot get something ( like the lion's share of the world's wealth ) for nothing . This idea is also formally named the " principle of conservation of energy ".

The American Socialist Workers Party 's position on Israel today is a betrayal of its " Trotskyist " position circa 1972 . From its archived LETTERS :
Anti-Semitism?
" I have just received a copy of the
Nov. 3 Militant and was talking
with the man who was selling the
paper. I had to question the seemingly anti-Israeli stance taken by
some writers. While looking into your
paper it may seem that there is antiSemitism for this very reason.
The stances you take are against
aggression; in domestic issues I cite
Puerto Rico, Black and Chicano
problems. However, in oppression of
people in other countries, examples
are cited in West Germany, Ceylon,
and South Vietnam, but how about
the oppression of Jews in the USSR?
Do you fight against that oppression? You have attacked Israel but
do not cite examples that Jews are
suffering under oppression, as are
other groups. Is this anti-Semitism? "
P.E.
Geneva, N. Y.
In reply- { The Militant is opposed
to the oppression of the Jewish minority in the Soviet Union, just as
we are against all forms of antiSemitism.
We are also unalterably opposed
to Israel's oppression of the Palestinian people. The Israeli settlerstate had no right whatsoever to
drive the Palestinians from their
homeland. Nor does it have any
right to terrorize the Palestinian
minority within its borders or to
attack refugee settlements ... "]

How ironic that belligerent ZIONIST Jews in " OUR democracy " set themselves up as monitors of " hate speech " that " violates community standards ". They daily censor not hate speech but anti-war , anti-ZIONISM American public opinion. My just REMOVED post can be read on my Facebook page and on Radical Ron's Blog Spot . ( 5000 FRIENDS on Facebook , 670, 000 view on my blog ) . The CENSORS can contact me at my email address .
Could the ZIONIST Jew controlled mainstream news media in " OUR democracy " ever persuade a critical mass of young Americans( mostly from a CHRISTIAN background ) potential cannon fodder, to risk and sacrifice their precious young lives to make the world safe for the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in APARTHEID Israel and the warmonger , embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine ?
The stale Wilsonian blather of " OUR democracy " was false more than a century ago. It will never arouse sick " patriotic " war fever for nuclear World War III with POST-COMMUNIST Russia.
It takes more than bombing air raids and off shore naval warships to defeat any enemy. The MANPOWER for World War III is just not there anymore. Not for another " American Century ". Indeed, the sun is setting on American imperialism and Israeli Zionism.
Oppressed and miserable and economically stressed on the home front of " OUR democracy ", working class and more and more " ruined " middle class Americans will never vote APPROVE for nuclear World War III . Unlike Britain in 1930s England ,Zionist APARTHEID Israel is not dear to the vast majority of the American people. Presently Israel is afflicting genocide on the Palestinian people in Gaza. THAT is not the American Way, is it ?
Human mortality is the universal condition. As a longtime independent democratic socialist I asked myself for years why sentimentalized and revered " Marriage & Family " can arouse such murderous emotions when romantic 'love " fades or is cruelly betrayed.
While the human mating game ,with all its tricks and surprises, must be a million years old , modern bourgeois marriage -the product of capitalist culture based on sacrosanct PRIVATE PROPERTY - has been more effective in warping the human soul. The fact is Marriage & Family in THIS economic order is more and more destructive of human relationships . Just browse through whole shelves full of books in any public library offering " wise " advice to divorced people. And gay marriage inevitably falls into the same trap ( not often very tender as goes the Frank Sinatra song ) .
Depressed divorced persons can benefit little from predatory marriage counselors and psychiatrists.. Sooner or later Marriage & Family must cease to conform to the OWNERSHIP society.
Perhaps OJ was always a perfect NICE GUY whose mind was poisoned by values and impulses all too conventional - values celebrated in cheering, noisy , crowded football stadiums ? Did not Freud teach that THE BEAST lurks in all of us ? Especially when it comes to COMPETITION FOR MATES in the sexual jungle ?
RIP OJ and all your victims .
[Note the scratched over lines courtesy of the ZIONIST Jew censors !]
As a longtime independent democratic socialist I can understand Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib's frustration at trying to get her point out about morally UNACCEPTABLE Israeli genocide in Gaza, Palestine . She is blocked by the implacably hostile ZIONIST Jew controlled mainstream news media in " OUR democracy ". In general , the media ( including social media ) daily blocks anti-war , anti-ZIONISM American public opinion. The WOKE WARRIOR Zionists packed in Joe Biden's administration and in his WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party never apply their " Critical Race Theory " - dubious as it is - to APARTHEID Israel.
But ordinary Americans of all races , ethnic groups , and religions have no difficulty distinguishing the OPPRESSOR ( Israeli Zionism together forever with American imperialism ) from the OPPRESSED ( here the dispossessed , oppressed Palestinians ) . No puzzle why BLACK LIVES MATTER rallies feature Palestine flag waving .
The mainstream news media in " OUR democracy " will fail miserably to arouse toxic war fever here with stale Wilsonian blather that was false more than a century ago.
Risk nuclear World War III with POST COMMUNIST Russia in defense of " FREE WORLD " friends : war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel ; warmonger , embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine ? CIA think tank war propaganda tries to convince millions of ordinary Americans that there is something exceptionally wicked about the leaders and even the people of countries on our DEEP STATE"S designated enemies list . In this 21st century ruling elites are equally rotten in ALL nation states. Briefly, after the Russian Revolution of 1917 the workers of the world had a vision of a saner, more just social order. The collective HOPE aroused back then will never be completely lost. There will not be another " American Century " of self-confident capitalism and " progressive " imperialism. A new Dark Age collapse of civilization is more probable.
