67. It's a party of sexist, racist, homophobic "rude, dickheads" . . .!!!
There's no "overt evidence" that Wilson is racist?
Or that the party is racist?

Evidently you're not familiar with the RNC and their racism, sexism and homophobia

on videos? Given that, who would be joining that party after such videos were exposed?

:eyes:


Most people who are not actively liberal (i.e., the majority of the US citizenry)

Rather, this is a liberal nation. While the parties have moved to the right -- many of
us would say to fascism -- there is every evidence that the public is liberal/progressive.

Noam Chomsky is a good source for that and he makes clear that the elites do have to know
where things REALLY stand. And, evidently, polls that we don't see indicate that the public
when faced with questions about Mexican immigrants, for instance, will cite that Mexicans
are pretty much returning to land they once occupied and which we took in war.


ALSO . . . further proof of the liberal nature of our citizenry can be found in the reality
that the elites have to BUY government, have to BUY elected officials because the public
won't knowingly vote for their "values."

The right-wing elites are forced to control every facet of communications -- and I presume
the internet is next. That's why their control depends upon a corporate-press.

2000 is yet another example of this -- a Jon Ellis/Fox News partnership in the opening steal
by "recalling" Florida and "calling" it for Bush -- followed by a GOP-sponsored fascist rally
to stop the vote counting mandated by the Florida State Supreme Court -- and finally pressing
the right-wing Supremes into service.

Needless to say, the computers themselves which came into play in the mid-and-late 1960's ...
coincidentally, just about the time America was passing The Voting Rights Act!

This also includes controlling news gathering agencies, monopoly newspaper chains --
and needless to say knocking out PBS and NPR. Publishing houses have been knocked out and
monopolies formed. If you're not familiar with Carl Bernstein's report on our CIA press,
you'll find details on the internet.

Control of our federal agencies and reversing their goals -- from education to environment.
Again, over and again, it is clear that the public rejects right-wing positions when they
are clearly put to them.

Just as a majority of Americans support MEDICARE FOR ALL -- but don't always understand
single payer or public option.

It is only because this is a liberal nation that there is a necessity for total control of
information by the elites/right wing. The need for control of all of this is proof of that.

Lies and myths are like mirrors which are easily shattered when a tiny pebble of truth are
tossed at them. They have to be very careful about that -- all truth is a threat to them.
