The fundamental idea,
that people should reap the fruits of their labor and exercise power in their society, is eternal. Every nazi nutcase opining about “civilization” tries to obfuscate this, replacing racial categories for material reality

Oklahoma will require applicants for teacher jobs coming from California and New York to pass an exam the Republican-dominated state's top education official says is designed to safeguard against “radical leftist ideology.” nbcbay.com/axR5ZYX

Folks are terrified of the NYC subway, think DC is a gang ridden hellscape and have other often irrational fears, but here's the truth, other than disease or an abusive partner with a gun, you're most likely to be killed by a reckless driver, and we barely acknowledge it's a problem.

As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.

1. If you want hope in this dark moment, listen to chant of "no more war" that broke out in the very large crowd that came out to hear Bernie Sanders in Tulsa, Oklahoma. There is only one off-ramp from Trump's mad rush to war: the quick mobilization of an anti-war opposition. The people are ready.
