Listen to a reading of this article:<\/em><\/a><\/p>

When receiving information about the world it’s necessary to scrutinize not just the information, but also the means by which the information was brought to your attention and<\/em> who could benefit from its circulation. Few bother doing all of these things, which is why most people are confused about the world.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

The fact that Biden is continuing all of Trump’s policies means those who believed Trump was fighting the establishment must now admit that either (A) they were wrong or (B) Biden is also fighting the establishment.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

The only people promoting the idea that Joe Biden has dementia are right wingers, left wingers, and Joe Biden.<\/p>

People tell me I should criticize Biden’s policies and not his obvious mental decline, but a very clear sign that the most powerful government on earth is not being run by its elected officials is actually an extremely noteworthy fact that everyone should be talking about.<\/p>

The only face more suitable for the US empire than a sociopathic billionaire is a decrepit warmongering corporate whore with dementia.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

When imperialists say an issue is “complicated” what they really mean is that a very simple matter has been covered over by a lot of complicated spin and propaganda narratives.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

I tried to infiltrate MSNBC and CNN but they won’t hire me because I have no CIA experience.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

Jimmy Dore lives so rent-free in Cenk Uygur’s head that BlackRock is trying to buy it.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

The best way to get rich as an intelligence agent is to run media influence operations posing as a “former” intelligence agent.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

The main difficulty with socialism is that when a nation tries to move away from the most toxic aspects of capitalism, the most toxic aspects of capitalism immediately begin arming local proxy militias and working to cut it off from the world economy.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

Any evil deeds you suspect the US empire might be perpetrating in secret are probably not as bad as what it is doing openly in Yemen as you read this sentence.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

A society which supports the butchery in Yemen is not going to abandon factory farming and animal cruelty. We are very, very far from treating our animal cousins properly if we can’t even stop slaughtering our own.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

The difference between a centrist Democrat and a progressive Democrat is that one favors slow incremental changes which never actually happen, whereas the other favors slow incremental changes which never actually happen.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>

The shrinking audiences for The Intercept<\/em> and TYT shows there’s not actually much demand for the area between (A) real criticism of capitalist imperialism and (B) MSNBC. Once your eyes begin to open you tend to move quickly from mainstream to radical without hovering in between.<\/p>\u2756<\/p>My American husband with his Australian healthcare card and his US healthcare card. pic.twitter.com\/vLh666c4ac<\/a><\/p>
