  Don’t kid yourselves - the fight has always been between opposing elite groups posted by nano, 2013-10-26 22:57:38
Recorded history since ancient Egypt (where elites deified themselves) verifies that small groups and exceptional individuals have always been responsible for momentous social and technological change -- the masses have consistently behaved in the same manner throughout history, i.e. as mindless, moronic herd animals until explosive trigger-events spur them en masse into action, after which they return to their servile passive state as mindless herd animals! That is the undeniable social historical reality and types (there are many) like David McGraw, who I admire for his zeal and dedication (but not his blind and misplaced optimism) had better learn late never to flog dead horses.

 Effective counter-strategies against NSA spying posted by Martha Mendoza via sal, 2013-10-24 12:23:50
'Give them enough rope;' this popular adage applies particularly to the USA and its manic, indiscriminate policy of viewing the entire global population as an imaginary enemy -- remember McCarthyism? (full story)

 No Time/Space posted by rudi, 2013-10-23 10:00:07
Science falters on its initial premise i.e. that the universe began or started -- the big bang of idiocy -- infinity has no beginning or end! Of course, it follows, if something begins it MUST end, as its beginning marks a reference point and all reference points require by definition at least one other antithetical (related) comparative reference point, in this case an END! That is all you need know to overturn the most sacred beliefs of measurement-based science. (full story)

 Supermarkets Resume Discussions with Local Producers posted by sal, 2013-10-21 01:53:04
These talks seem to be missing a major point and that is that Tony Abbott, party leader and PM, is in the pocket of the plutocrats that installed him into office -- remember that (wish list) gala dinner for Abbott hosted by Rupert Murdoch and Gina Rinehart? Regardless of what ministers may wish or present to the public, Abbott is boss and will dictate policy according to the wish list he has been given by his masters, make no mistake! (full story)

Since the complete takeover (see attached video) of the western global news media by the plutocracy the world has been fed propaganda disguised as news -- the story below could be the best real news of the Century!
There is no doubt whatsoever that a REAL independent news outlet would be an overnight success and an extremely viable business in the world today -- people are fed up with transparent media propaganda, outright distortions/omissions and lies! (full story)

 Glenn Greenwald: poof journo to go it alone posted by stan, 2013-10-16 12:47:52
In the 70‘s and 80‘s gays and saphhics were radical; they hit the streets with a do-or-die attitude to demand their rights/recognition and to overcome decades of prejudice and persecution from social and religious conservatives. We (political radicals) gave them every support in their fight. Then after substantial social successes, radical gay leaders were displaced by conservative gays that began to emulate mainstream society, gay 'marriage' for instance! (full story)

 The U.S. Shutdown: Turning The Social Tide posted by liz, 2013-10-12 23:58:37
The global plutocracy is demonstrating -- though they have orchestrated events from the start -- that democracy doesn’t work. The U.S. shutdown flies in the face of representative democracy and highlights that ‘our’ reps do not really represent us, the MAJORITY, but serve minority interests and themselves instead. In fact, the U.S. shutdown has clearly demonstrated something unintended i.e. that western democracies are OWNED and are simply a means by which ruling UNREPRESENTATIVE minority elites are able to exert influence over nations while remaining in the shadows -- we should never forget that the global plutocracy, which has orchestrated this shutdown scenario, is (temporarily) the most powerful minority interest group on the planet!

A short question begs a short but accurate answer -- YES, it is no secret that the U.S. is the dumbest of all the developed nations; so how do we account for its criminal and other amazing successes -- short answer again, Americans are CAPABLE but extremely perverse. (full story)

A Criminal Farce of Monumental Proportions posted by judd, 2013-10-08 22:47:08
Today America is without peer as the leading law-breaking, criminal nation on the planet; its civilian killing record alone amounts to more than the rest of the world combined; it engages in extra-judicial assassinations; it commits war and other heinous crimes against humanity almost on a daily basis and has done so continually for over a decade and YET it has never been held accountable by the International community or courts. The reason is simple, the WORLD is temporarily under the control of criminal Plutocrats that are using the USA and its resources as a means to further their aims and evil ambitions, which are global hegemony, resource theft and enslavement/containment of the global population. Just take a good look at what its agencies strive to achieve on a GLOBAL level TODAY! (full story)

 The US/NATO Crime that is Libya Today posted by Stephen Lendman via stan, 2013-10-08 10:47:05
The most memorable event of the Libyan 'humanitarian' (pretext) intervention was the 26,000 bombing sorties conducted by US/NATO forces, which ruined the most progressive, completely debt-free nation in North Africa. Today Libya is a zone of perpetual conflict by design, thanks to the US and the fundamentalist, al-Qaeda-linked puppet government it installed. (full story)
