Its like that other one "Cultural Revolution" - doesn't that sound lovely.

Ok. I always found Affirmative to be a bit too robot like. Kind of like you would expect to hear from a blind scared old white muthafucka for instance. They shoulda stuck with "positive discrimination". Makes it sound like discrimination is actually ok and therefore much more easy on the brain.

NOW I do like that second one. I sounds exquisite.

The last paragraph makes you wonder just how long before the message
gets through. And start to trigger a change in behaviour. How many more
hurricanes and tropical storms, and how much more economic damage is
needed ?

Or is the US government so strongly within the grip of financial donors
and lobby groups (be they military or political), and the general population
and their vote have been rendered powerless ?

Apparently the whole world is in debt - stifling debt - Begs the question - To whom is this debt owed and who actually benefits?

Tim Pool on US political demographics and why "Get woke go broke" works. Turns out pandering to progressives alienates about 90% of the population.

As the link says, "Intelligence Squared" recently hosted a debate on three topics :
The first was on the role of NATO (“NATO is no longer fit for purpose”), the second
was about Russia (“The Russian threat is overblown”), and the third was on Iran
(“It's time to take a hard line on Iran”).

A summary of the debate is contained within the article.

The video of the debate can be viewed by clicking on the "Intelligence Squared" link
in the first line of the article. the video is just over 1.5 hours long.

Taking the anti neo-liberal side are John Mearsheimer and Stephen Cohen.
Mearsheimer is the co-author of the 2006 book "The Israel Lobby and US
Foreign Policy", while Stephen Cohen is a professor in Russian Studies at
Princeton university.
