BOURGEOIS LEFT

EDITORS—The team demonstrates that far too many Democrats have become members of a cult inured to facts or reason, and which in this case will happily and stubbornly go down with the Biden ship. Apparently, not even Biden stalwarts like Rob Reiner can inject a measure of common sense. Their attitude almost guarantees another Russiagate—and worse than that as the country descends into a terrain that not even the ruling class managers are sure to control.

ERIC ZUESSE—His answer was duplicitous. At 1:03:52 he had condemned “the neocon ideology, which is bankrupting our country” (which is true), then said, “That money is not being used for self-defense. That money is used for world domination and to make America the policeman of the world. NATO is the instrument of that. I am not going to abolish NATO.” So: he won’t abolish the instrument of America’s being the policeman of the world. Clearly, then, he’s not really against neoconservatism. But he continued there as-if it’s not so: “I’m going to change the function of NATO so that it becomes an instrument of peace.”

BRUCE LERRO—If any of you think that some hodgepodge of long discredited socialist party, communist party and raging anarchists are going to help move France forward, we don’t agree.

Had Le Pen’s party won there probably would have been no more arms to Ukraine, and a death knell for the EU and another nail in the coffin of NATO. They also would have reversed Macron’s austerity measures. Russia would have been invited into Europe to provide cheap gas.

CALEB MAUPIN—A magnificent informal lecture on the historical origins of the “social democracy” treachery, the watering down and misleading of revolutionary movements in every land they happen to arise, from antiquity—as exemplified by the defanging of a radical Christianity by the Romans—to the betrayals and defeats of contemporary revolutionary leaders and movements in our own world. The most recent example, notes, Caleb, just took place in Britain, and is symbolised in the victory of Keir Starmer, a fake leftist and shameless Zionist that will do nothing to improve the lot of Britons in the years to come. 

GARLAND NIXON—Using their immense media/cultural power, the liberal establishment in the US, Britain and other “developed countries” in the West, have redefined the meaning of “the Left”. The upshot is a huge cultural and political theft. The “left” nowadays does not resemble the real, historical, Marxist or even liberal left at all. Today’s fake left is packed with zealous warmongers, compulsive free speech witch-hunters, it hates socialism, despises trade unions, can’t tell what a man or a woman is, and embraces all the core tenets of libertarianism, a form of latter-day Calvinism on steroids. The upshot is the disaster we witness today: society is disintegrating, war—including nuclear war—looms in every corner, the culture is desiccated and mostly uncreative, controlled by Wall Street bean-counters; artists, instead of rebels are cowards, sellouts, and conformists; and the political class is rotten to the core.
