WAIT - I misread the AllMusic review: "The record opens up with a declaration that America is 'Already Great,'*and by the end, Young and Promise of the Real are chanting 'Lock Him Up' in an echo of the chant Michael Flynn led at the Republican National Convention in the summer of 2016". So, fake news, I guess! ![]()

After reading your piece a few times, Robert, I can't help thinking the question should really be is if revolution can take place without war, specifically, without violent destructive war. Power does not usually give up its power, it needs to be taken. Governments fight each other through currency wars and propaganda wars The Spectacle crows about cultural and technological "revolutions", and trivializes the real meaning with neverending revolutions in fashion and makeup! |

Tax plan seems like it’s a-happenin’
I’m beyond furious. Been trying to stay sane which is why I’ve been avoiding this thread. But yeah... hostile corporate takeover of United States, now underway. So long Medicare! Fare thee well, Medicaid! Buh-bye social security! Better luck next time, elderly people with cancer! This was a hail Mary for a dying administration. Elections will simply be purchased outright from now on. I’m gonna watch some fucking Seinfeld. |

Well I wrote that post after taking my evening klonipin, so I’d argue those are the only conditions under which one should engage at this point. (Klonipin also reason for now-corrected typos, I’d imagine) |

anyway robert, as the contradictions of the system exacerbate (as the maoists would put it), you’ll have a better chance of your socialist revolution happening, and you’ll live happily ever after, under some tyrant, for decades to come. someone like... supreme leader ivanka, maybe? or little barron as pol-pot redux.

The tax bill passed, but it’s not reform......it’s not a huge tax cut.
It’s altering the edges, a little smoke and mirrors. It will help some, possibly many......others will be hurt, but neither worthy of celebration nor weeping and gnashing of teeth. |

I disagree very strongly. This is a huge deal. This is a knife-twist. This is going to feed poverty (not people in poverty, but poverty itself), and widen the income gap. This is tailor-made to kept the rich rich and keep the poor poor. $500 in tax cuts for someone making $35,000 a year isn’t going to mean shit when their health care is gone. This is a pestilential, malicious fucking corporate coup. Not business as usual. Not that anything has been business as usual for some time now. |

You take away the right to live a life simply because you don't have enough to pay a medical bill or even the ability to get a medical procedure this is just the kind of thing American citizens should be in an uproar about. No American in the modern age should die cause they couldn't afford a life saving medical procedure. Our four fathers revolted against the British for less. Sadly, the idea of a true second American revolution is probably unlikely, but again, we revolted for less.

I think my issue is language, in that I think how we would define a revolution differs. I would argue our political system is working perfectly as it was designed - to implement the will of the people. But the Will of the People is blunted and crushed, you can pick and choose why, I'd say its the result of 50 years of CIA disinformation replacing the national consciousness (I don't think we can understate the importance of billions of dollars being spent over generations to implement the policy then-CIA DIrector William Casey told Ronald Reagan: "We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false" |

I know. It’s not paranoia anymore. They’re goddamn terrorists, the whole brood. Sex scandals are being used to unseat Democrats, and but when the scandal revolves around a pedo like Roy Moore, it’s no big thang. Shouldn’t it logically follow that Trump calls for his own resignation? I mean, all things being fair and equal (which of course they are not). |

just hold on until 18, Damn, it is awful. One thing we're doing in casa duclo, besides staying involved in our usual leftie groups is we are stepping up the charity. So far, I've given to local med clinic to fix some homeless people's teeth, a local group that makes and hands out free veggie burritos to whoever needs one at the local homeless hangout areas, a PNW abortion funding group and a contribution thru an Indian tribe to a female college students education funds.
