Organize Unite & Resist
OUR Country OUR Values NOT Theirs
Anti-Racist Anti-Sexist Anti-Homophobic Anti-Transphobic Anti-Xenophobic Anti-Fascist Anti-Corporatist
Pass this on and act on it
So ''They will blame James Comey and the FBI. They will blame voter suppression and racism. They will blame Bernie or bust and misogyny. They will blame third parties and independent candidates. They will blame the corporate media for giving him the platform, social media for being a bullhorn and - WikiLeaks for airing the laundry.
''But this leaves out the force most responsible for creating the nightmare in which we now find ourselves wide awake: Neoliberalism. That worldview – fully embodied by Hillary Clinton and her machine – is no match for Trump-style extremism. The decision to run one against the other is what sealed our fate. If we learn nothing else, can we please learn from that mistake?'' - from:
'It was the Democrats' embrace of Neoliberalism that won it for Trump'', by Naomi Klein: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/nov/09/rise-of-the-davos-class-sealed-americas-fate & for added context, please see this excellent piece ..

''THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY NEEDS TO CLEAN HOUSE'', by Robert Reich:
''The party reflects the goals of the moneyed interests. This must change.'' RR has been a warrior for The 99% but alas he is still attached to The Democratic Party & by extension - to USA's "Controlled Opposition" Duopoly! Maybe it's exactly that which needs to go!! Ergo time for a New Party: a Labor Party; a Peoples' Party; a Democratic Socialist Party .. as Democraps & Repugnants continue their march for Oligarchy's status quo!!!
dum spiro, spero ...
