CORPORATE FASCISM

PAUL EDWARDS—Of course, neither of these Sturmbahnfuhrers can claim parity with the past master of venomous race hatred, that brazen liar, shameless provocateur, and criminal fabulist, Netanyahu, regent of the Fascist State of Israel.  This clinical embodiment of the abused become abuser, in exacerbating the worst elements of Israeli character–bone deep racism and paranoia; the arrogant claim to superiority that’s the warp and weft of its religion; the babaric cruelty urged by its gruesome, twisted, medieval rabbinical voices–has goaded Israel to embrace and celebrate its most hideous attributes and flaunt them in the face of an increasingly appalled world.

DAVID WALSH—The grave danger for the ruling class is that wide layers of the population no longer trust the officially sponsored “gatekeepers” in the major newspapers and television networks. They have begun to see through the highly paid toadies who fill up the Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal and the television news programs. And that is an entirely healthy development.

CAITLIN JOHNSTONE—The word “conspire” is defined by Merriam-Webster as “to join in a secret agreement to do an unlawful or wrongful act or an act which becomes unlawful as a result of the secret agreement”. No sane person would deny that this is a thing that happens, nor that this is likely a thing that happens to some extent among the powerful in their own nation. This by itself is a theory about conspiracy per definition, and it accurately applies to pretty much everyone. Since it applies to pretty much everyone, the label is essentially meaningless, either as a pejorative or as anything else.

PHILIP A. FARRUGGIO—Sadly, anyone who still resides under the Trump/ Republican tent, ignoring the Charlottesville truth , and of course now the El Paso shooter truth is walking down a dangerous road. The white supremacist march , to this writer, most likely gave manna to  Robert Bowers in Pittsburgh, before he decided to go into that synagogue and kill Jews. Trump’s references to those coming to our southern border as rapists, drug dealers and of course ‘ invaders ‘ may have just influenced that 21 year old to drive all the way from Dallas to do his deed against hispanics in El Paso. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist once you have seen that young man’s writings and postings etc.

RICK STERLING—The Tulsi Gabbard presidential campaign has filed a major law suit against Google. This article outlines the main points of the law suit and evidence the social media giant Google has quietly acquired enormous influence on public perceptions and has been actively censoring alternative viewpoints.
