A lot of people are probably unaware that it used to very hard to get a conceal carry permit in most places because law enforcement was firmly against having a lot of dumb sons of bitches running around with guns. This piece of wisdom is similar to the situation surrounding methamphetamine use/abuse, each generation, it [...]

I don’t think that’s even close to what this post is about.

Could also be a technique for indoctrinating out-state police departments about either Occupy participants, or urban poor street people? It does seem that there has been a rather concerted effort, ever since the beginning of the occupy movement to label occupiers as DFH or worse. … Does anyone remember our GWOT people bragging about the [...]

So we’re surprised?

How do you think that makes the average person — the person we are trying to reach — feel about the Occupy movement?

Send more cops in riot gear with lots of mace? I’ll be generous and chalk it up to sophomoric understanding of the struggle, but leave plenty of room for your explanation too. I’ve [...]

In our case, the co-opting might be stronger from the insurrectionists.

It’s the saddest thing IMHO.

They so obviously achieve nothing other than ego-gratification, and do so much damage in the process.

So soon old, so late wise.

Thank you Wendy. I hope this knowledge you are offering is spread thoroughly enough to make a difference. It’s frustrating to witness the various vectors that threaten to dilute/pollute/refute the OWS movement, police aggression, government agent provocateurs, young ego-trippers, and now attacks by co-opters disguised as collaborators. I’m amazed at the ‘progress’ that seems to [...]

See this excerpt from an article originally in Rolling Stone Magazine 2006.

Boss Hog.

It’s an extensive expose of factory hog farming.

The pigs raised on industrial hog farms are notoriously vulnerable to disease, so much so that all visitors to these hog farms must sanitize their shoes, and wear face masks before entering barns. I’ve been speculating for years that we will someday see a mass die-off at one of these farms resulting in 500,000 dead [...]

I’m sorry, but I to have to point out that cloud-based computing has next to nothing to do with the subject we’re discussing, so no, it’s not a better question. What is being discussed is the trend toward appliances and away from true computers. While appliances provide some of the functionality of a computer, they [...]

What’s the solution?

I don’t know. It would seem too late I think. What’s truly frightening is the extreme speed with which the MOTU can put their schemes in place. People forget that the internet hasn’t always existed, and the evolution of the internet has happened so rapidly that it causes one’s head to spin. It [...]

Meetings like the one you describe are going to terrify the PTB like nothing else I can think of. I would expect that they have been working feverishly ever since, to develop a counter strategy to put an end to this sort of communication. It sounds as if the ‘lesser of two evils’ meme is [...]

Actually, it would be relatively easy for the PTB to render ‘free’ computers useless on the internet by allowing communication only via narrowly defined protocols designed to support ‘trusted’ apps. Transport protocols can, and probably will be redesigned in such a way as to restrict access to the internet by anything except the new appliances. [...]

We’re not enjoying it, but I think you knew that. And you’re right, we’re a racist settler state; Before We had Asymetrical Warfare… But this does not change the fact that our shallow understanding of politics and our racism has been carefully nurtured by our masters,to their benefit, and to the whole world’s detriment. This is [...]

There is no difference none whatsoever between the people of the USA and the people of the Zionist state there is no difference between their governments.

I can’t really argue with your observation, but would like to elaborate just a bit. Both the people of the USA, and the people of the Zionist state are at [...]

I wish that there was some awareness here of the fact that what we are talking about is the ways that northern Europeans treat each other. Gott Mit Uns and all that … What we’re discussing is how badly white people treat other white people. It goes without saying that they treat non-white people even [...]

This is why we have jury trials. As an aside, this is why our president should not have the power to unilaterally decide to kill someone just because he believes that person is a terrorist./blockquote> Exactly! It is a mistaken idea among a disappointingly large number of people, that the ‘Law’ can, and should somehow ‘allow’ [...]

However much “The Clash of Civilizations.” may resonate in our imaginations, it strikes me as a very convenient distraction from the class struggle that has now reached a fever pitch if you ask me.

IOW, if the 1% who rule the west weren’t so rapacious, there would be very little clash.
