All those sites are equally bad, plus more. Any site purporting to be "progressive" is 95% likely to fuck with your head as badly as your tv, and more, since you think the tubes is where you get real news, when they spend almost all their time and energy on parroting stories for food.
People are deludedly thinking they can change the world by making a living in it, that the psychopathic class will ever leave open a means for its own destruction.
I, and others, keep screaming for people to wake up because EVERYONE is conditioned to think they can buck a system without resorting to main force. That has been the GENIUS of the "progressive" contribution to society... and they never cease invoking Gandhi and Martin to convince us they're right.
Not to pick on Jon Stewart, particularly, but he's the easiest analogy to use. When you think of where he would be right now without Dubya, you start to understand how "the opposition" gets by in this world. I just tried my level best to keep a young man from falling into the Kevin Zeese glue pit along with a shitload of other "progressive" bloggers, reminding him BLUNTLY whenever his efforts were going to popularity over effectiveness, because he swore it was effectiveness he was after.
There's the rub.
People think they're telling the truth when they swear that stuff.
They are OUTRAGED when you put a light on what's actually motivating them. They turn themselves into human sleeping powder TO PUT FOOD ON THEIR TABLES.
NOTHING outranks food, and there is NO limit to the amount of delusion they will embrace AND crank out to get it.
You can huddle with any one of them and give them 50 other ways to head for effective action over the mere appearance of it, and they will shun every one of them to instead be MORE vivid with the appearance.
I get very little actual spam, because they mostly try to nuke the older posts and we can now set older posts to moderate before posting comments, and nearly everyone does, so they gave that up. They have turned to linking my blog on spam sites to see if they can get me to click in that way. They tried spamming my email, but it's set to just delete spam. The filter DID come in handy ONCE. It kept a shithead from ever appearing on my blog. Once. Other than that, it mostly picks on you and Phil, and I think that is because both of you come in off hinky servers. You look alternately like a heavily traveling man and like a government spy on my stats page, and Phil looks like no one at all on it. So the spam filter evidently is NOT going to learn to trust you.
"You look alternately like a heavily traveling man and like a government spy on my stats page" LMAO. That's exactly right. I'm a government spy for Anarchy.
I'm only an anarchist for everyone taking the most excellent care of each other possible... I actually want a government, just an actual meritocratic one. I don't think any Anarchists, even the most radically libertarian ones, would end up hating that. There's just too much that can only be done by ALL of us, for a world with no government.
I view it like church, when it's people it's usually fine. Once you institutionalize anything it's fucked. More like size of the group. I don't think we are really that far from tribal life, and that's why we have so many problems with GWOLife. If you had a tribe of 200 and Obummer was in it you could punch him in the mouth when he puts Corexit in your food supply.
No shit. I just got a public service announcement via a direct call to my cell phone from the Sheriff's department of the city I lived in a year ago to let me know when the new hospital will be openning. WOW.
Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable. —John F. Kennedy
The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, it's just that they know so much that isn't so. —Ronald Reagan
Some of us who have already begun to break the silence of the night have found that the calling to speak is often a vocation of agony, but we must speak. We must speak with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak. —Martin Luther King
We're all fucked. I'm fucked. You're fucked. The whole department is fucked. It's the biggest cock-up ever. We're all completely fucked. —not uttered by anyone in charge lately
Anyone calling Obama a leftist, liberal, or progressive needs to have the stupid beat out of them. —Old Uncle Dave
As for the Taliban ... their stated grievance is the same as Gen. Washington’s in our war with the British: If you want this war to end, get out of our country. —Pat Buchanan
Obama-era drone warfare ... in general looks like Bush-era drone warfare on steroids. —Scott Horton
There has to be altruism in the universe. —Frank Drake
The morons in Washington are pushing the envelope of nuclear war. The insane drive for American hegemony threatens life on earth. The American people, by accepting the lies and deceptions of “their” government, are facilitating this outcome. —Paul Craig Roberts
I am a child of the South. Janet Napolitano tells me I need to be afraid of people who are labeled white supremacists but I was raised around white supremacists. I am not afraid of white supremacists. I am concerned about my own government. The Patriot Act did not come from the white supremacists, it came from the White House and Congress. Citizens United did not come from white supremacists, it came from the Supreme Court. —Cynthia McKinney
No one has to "marry" anyone else politically; no one has to embrace every tenet or belief that an anti-imperialist ally might hold. You simply have to say: "All of us, regardless of our other views, believe this truth to be self-evident: dismantling the empire will bring immediate and enormous benefits to our nation and to the world." —Chris Floyd
The power of the people on top depends on the obedience of the people below. —Howard Zinn
...the government only starts listening to its voters once the more corrupt option turns out to be untenable. —Matt Taibbi
· One out of seven American homeowners will probably lose their homes by the end of 2010.
· Only 4.7 percent of distressed homeowners who enrolled in the modification plan have gotten any help.
· Out of Obama's $75 billion program, only $2.3 million has been spent—or 0.03 percent.
Obama's performance on the foreclosure crisis—along with unemployment, the biggest problem America faces—makes Bush's laissez faire approach to Hurricane Katrina look caring and loving in comparison. If ever there were a cause for impeachment, look no further. —Ted Rall
As self-appointed champions of civilisation against barbarism, they fail to see that a certain barbarism is the flipside of civilisation itself, inseparable from its smooth operation. For every cathedral, a pit of bones; for every artistic masterpiece, human wretchedness and back-breaking toil. —Terry Eagleton
Here at home and throughout the world people are fighting back against the forces of wealth, privilege, and militarism — some because they have no choice, others because they would choose no other course but the one that leads to peace and justice. —Michael Parenti
I've found that culture, however useful and important, is neither the foundation nor the ceiling of human experience, even if it is commonly used for walls. —Thomas Cleary
I really consider President and Mrs. Mubarak to be friends of my family. So I hope to see him often here in Egypt and in the United States. —Hillary Clinton
