A virtual unknown to most Americans, Dr Margaret Flowers, who is also a peace activist, and one of the most capable advocates of single payer, Medicare for All, continues to be safely “ghettoized” by the corporate media. On social media she does not fare much better. Most of her YouTube videos gather measly numbers of visitors. The below had a total of 441 views, now 442, thanks to our visit. Is that disgraceful or what? Meanwhile any trending idiocy or the latest gossip about some stupid celebrity garners hundreds of thousands of views or even millions. How can such a dumb republic ever be saved?
