Temer escapes corruption charges

lundi 12 juin 2017 à 02:00

Brazil's corrupt President Temer escaped from corruption charges.

This is a bad blow to all hopes for Brazil. Temer and his corrupt allies seek to cut down the Amazon rain forest and crush the poor.

More suspicion about Sessions' actions in relation to Flynn and Russia.

Too ignorant to be President

lundi 12 juin 2017 à 02:00

If Trump is too ignorant to be guilty, he's too ignorant to be President.

Winning on a progressive platform

lundi 12 juin 2017 à 02:00

Corbyn's huge advance shows that progressives can win on a progressive platform. Democrats must stop aiming for "centrist" right-wing positions.

Those that do so are not simply choosing the position they think people will vote for. It's also a question of getting funds from various businesses and rich people: corruption, in other words. Even when they see that progressives can win, they may continue to oppose the progressives for the sake of their paymasters. We will have to push them out.

Censoring artwork in NJ

lundi 12 juin 2017 à 02:00

A high school in New Jersey censored student artwork that mocked the troll.

The student who appreciates the publicity this got him is not mistaken about its useful consequences, but if he wants to build resistance to the troll, he's making a mistake about how to go about it.

What these students should do is publicly denounce the school and its principal, and demand to confront those who operated behind the scenes to pressure for their work to be censored.

It might also be effective to replace their art works with big "This piece was censored" signs.
