"Trump is the president that contemporary white America deserves: he is an amalgamation of some of the worst racism, ableism, misogyny, and anti-poor attitudes that collectively comprise ‘American values’"

About this blog

This blog does not pretend to be even handed. It has an often dark and depressing theme -- Capitalism run amok is at the root of most of the world's seemingly intractable problems. I recognize human behavior and our capacity to do bad things as individuals. I am not an apologist or a bleeding heart but rather postulate that history is driven by the powerful. Prejudices are manipulated, flames of hatred fanned and the masses enlisted in the service of the capitalist lords and masters. Our history is that of conquest, control and consolidation of wealth at any cost, including the entire planet.

Sound a bit like a crusade? It is this blog's singular purpose to smash holes in the dominant paradigm -- a service to critical thought in a "newspeak" world. Readers will not find strategy for a new world or a general theory of history, Marxist or otherwise. We all live under a barrage of "free market" propaganda and viewed from inside this asylum, understanding news and current events in historical context always requires deep decoding. Otherwise you are just being played. Trust nothing you read, see on the nightly news or social media.
