Inspired from youth by Albert Camus' sense of the Absurd, I try to be a voice for REASON in the growing darkness and moral insanity of global capitalism .

11 inmates escape New Orleans jail, 10 still on the run
To what degree is the relentless racially oriented , obsessive " identity politics " of the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party a major contribution to the now obvious " Black Crime Wave " in the United States ? Democratic socialists have argued for years that poverty , capitalist super-exploitation of the HAVE-NOTS, and brutal political repression of the Black Community breeds just this horror: just what Charles Dickens described in " A Tale of Two Cities ", a novel centered on the Great French Revolution of 1789 .
More than fatuous talk about " reparations " the Black Community in " OUR democracy " needs to break away from the treacherous WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party and sharpen its " CLASS consciousness ".
[ " A powerful quote from "A Tale of Two Cities" that illustrates the horrors of the French Revolution is: 'Crush humanity out of shape once more, under similar hammers, and it will twist itself into the same tortured forms.'] This quote highlights the cyclical nature of violence and tyranny, suggesting that oppression can breed brutality, turning victims into oppressors. Dickens uses this quote to express his ambivalent view of the revolution, acknowledging the injustices that fueled the uprising while also condemning the violence and brutality that followed. He sees the revolution as a consequence of the aristocracy's oppression, which "sow[s] the same seed of rapacious license" and compels the people to lash out with equal cruelty. The quote emphasizes that such brutality can be inflicted by anyone, not just those in power, making it a warning about the dangers of revolution and its potential to create its own kind of destruction.
