 The Fall of the Neoliberal Order is Drastically Accelerating posted by Rainer Shea via lex, 2019-11-05 20:09:37
With the anti-colonial and anti-capitalist protests in Chile, Ecuador, Haiti, and other parts of the Third World, just such a revolution is now happening. Technically, the revolution that imperialism provoked began long ago; during what can be considered the first wave of anti-capitalist revolutions, which spanned from the French revolution of 1789 to the Paris Commune of 1871, major reactions began to happen in response to the contradictions of capitalism. The second wave, which spanned from the Russian revolution of 1917 to the Sandinista revolution of 1979, numerous countries and regions were successfully turned socialist or decolonized. (full story)

The Imperial Propaganda Machine posted by Caitlin Johnstone via jaxie, 2019-11-05 18:49:26
Any attempt to understand the world which fails to take into account the fact that extremely powerful people are pouring massive amounts of money and resources into manipulating your understanding of the world will necessarily result in a distorted worldview. (full story)

The Enemy Within posted by Chris Hedges via gus, 2019-11-04 18:34:36
We do not live in a democracy, however, the charade of our democracy is in peril. The deep state—the generals, bankers, corporatists, lobbyists, intelligence chiefs, government bureaucrats and technocrats—is intent on salvaging the brand. It is hard to trumpet yourself as the world’s guardian of freedom and liberty with Donald Trump blathering on incoherently about himself, inciting racist violence, insulting our traditional allies along with the courts, the press and Congress, tweeting misspelled inanities and impulsively denouncing or sabotaging bipartisan domestic and foreign policy. But Trump’s most unforgivable sin in the eyes of the deep state is his criticism of the empire’s endless wars, even though he lacks the intellectual and organizational skills to oversee a disengagement.

  Climate Boycotts Banned by Nazi Oz PM Scott Morrison posted by staff report CommonDreams via jaxie, 2019-11-03 20:49:28
It is important to first note that PM Morrison is an arch, religious and political conservative, so we must first try to understand what conservatism actually is and whether it fits into the natural world's (cosmos) scheme of things as the cosmos/nature is a direct representation of creation's power and wisdom proven by its infinite characteristic, that is, if any system or movement is multiplied by infinity, forever, and it fails to persist then it is clearly perverse, as infinity proves itself daily by the sheer fact of continuous existence. Or put another way, if infinity had the smallest flaw it would have ceased to exist over an infinite period of time as that flaw would have extinguished it, do you see the reason/logic in this? Probably not, as few are able to understand the workings of existence/cosmos which we are clearly part of. But it's better to try and explain than avoid the issue due to lack of comprehension.

 Tulsi Gabbard's WSJ Op-Ed posted by Stephen Lendman via claire, 2019-11-02 22:44:10
The Rupert Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal surprisingly gave anti-war/pro-social justice presidential aspirant, Tulsi Gabbard, op-ed space on October 29 to express her views freely. (full story)

The Evil Enemy Within posted by John W. Whitehead via darcy, 2019-11-02 20:44:35
We’re living in two worlds, you and I. There’s the world we see (or are made to see) and then there’s the one we sense (and occasionally catch a glimpse of), the latter of which is a far cry from the propaganda-driven reality manufactured by the government and its corporate sponsors, including the mass media, or more accurately, the State's deceitful propaganda apparatus.

'Deep State' Operatives Publicly Admit and Laud Existence of Unelected, Undemocratic Body posted by staff report RT via stacey, 2019-11-01 20:37:42
Indeed, uninformed deluded fools that doubted the existence of an unrepresentative body within the USA that governs behind the scenes irrespective of the will of the president and the people, known as the "Deep State," have learned after Deep State operatives brazenly went public that a cabal indeed does exist, which also confirms numerous reports of investigative journalists over time that the United States is ruled by a cabal of unelected bureaucrats and intel operatives that imagine themselves to be above the President, Congress and the Constitution. In other words the PEOPLE and democratic elections in the USA count for nothing. (full story)

Alt-news site Gray Zone editor, Max Blumenthal, arrested: ‘The charge is 100% false’ posted by Ben Norton via gayle, 2019-10-29 23:30:39
And with ease was Mr Blumenthal arrested, as almost no reaction to Assange's arrest and court railroading has been evident though the Assange trial is the critical test case. Clearly, many more arrests are to come of the many editors and journos that prefer to broadcast TRUTH rather than the CFR scripted news (propaganda) from criminal elites. As Orwell said, to paraphrase, 'in thoroughly corrupt societies telling the truth becomes a subversive act.' (full story)

The Universal Failure of Law Today posted by lex, 2019-10-26 23:17:02
Regardless of which society one views, traditional, theocratic or technologically developed, Law is common to all, which highlights the necessity of Law, rules, regulations and observances to which the group must adhere in order for that group to survive as harmoniously as possible and provide for the punishment of offences against the majority, which MAJORITY the Law is meant to serve. And it is the last point that is most critical, the LAW is meant to serve and safeguard the majority. (full story)

No Syria Withdrawal -- Operation Rolling Plunder posted by Daniel Larison via dee, 2019-10-25 19:57:18
America's presence in Syria is and has always been an illegal occupation. America has flagrantly breached a multitude of international laws invading and occupying Syria, yet the corrupt international courts at the Hague remain mute as does the UN and the international community. If any sane person/nation hopes to see justice done in Syria then the first move should be to prosecute and hold America accountable for its war crimes and brazen theft of another sovereign nation's resources. Failure to act appropriately in this regard would green-light every despotic criminal leader in the world to do whatever they want. (full story)

A very astute observation and inferred implementation from Mr Thoreau, so let's give it a go rather than whinge, whine and blame others for not reforming our totally corrupt and stolen societies! (full story)
