"
Critical support " is NOT an endorsement. Honest socialists don't
endorse TOTALITARIAN socialists . There are many " socialist " parties
that call themselves " Marxist " and they are run by permanent GREAT
LEADERS with UNCRITICAL followers much like the " Clears " in the daffy
Church of Scientology. They should be labeled POISON for young
idealists.
WAR PREPARATION involves so much of the
social surplus product of American capitalism that Lincoln Chafee's
opposition to more wars makes him a FRIEND of DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS
everywhere.
To be a " plutocrat " is not the
equivalent of being a moral monster . The individual of the privileged
class is caught up in a social-economic system that cannot function
collectively in the general interest of humanity.
I gave
critical support to Bernie Sanders until he endorsed " Corrupt Hillary "
. Both Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren will just hustle the MAD AS
HELL AT TRUMP crowd into VOTE DEMOCRAT camp .
Ultimately WE THE PEOPLE need a mass AMERICAN LABOR PARTY.
" Vanguard socialist parties " - self proclaimed - are
almost ALL crackpot jokes. And their implacable hostility to
Christianity, to Catholicism , indeed to religious faith in general,
guarantees that they will never lead any mass movement for DEMOCRATIC
socialism . They could create the New Stalinism - being hostile to the
FREE SPEECH and FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization.
It would be a very significant development if " progressive
" Democrats Sanders and Warren decided to break with the Democrat
Party . Now and then Bernie still describes himself as an INDEPENDENT .
But no Democrat is INDEPENDENT of the American ruling class , of
the shadow government of the United States , the FBI , the CIA , of the
Pentagon War Crimes Machine.
