At a meeting of public high school English teachers last fall, I was astonished when one of my female African-American colleagues announced that she was proudly supporting every right-wing reactionary Republican candidate in the state of Florida.&...

I't's not even a "movement" really.. not to any degree that any progressive activist would recognize. (DiMaggio and I explain this judgment at some length in the book Crashing the Tea Party) The TP folks we met through ...

First, I fear class is an empty signifier at this moment. Could we concentrate on democracy and a return to politics?   Pluralism and equality?  Citizenship? As for the Tea Party, I think Paul a bit condescending. This movement is not a...

Forum Post Waters: The Left Must Focus On Class

Forum Post, August, 12 2011 Joseph Waters

The Left must focus on Class in order to reach the masses. Class is THE issue. As long as Leftists are equated with middle-class liberals, the Working Class will largely reject their message. http://prolecenter.wordpress.com/

What do you think Obama's new campaign/slogan/branding will be for the 2012 elections? I am imagining it will play along the lines of now I'm going to stick it to them. I imagine that Obama will switch tactics for the next election and ta...

A sad indictment of the Guardian and Monbiot, much diminished now in my eyes.

Forum Post Alexander: Objection to Using Violence Against Women Terminology

I see no way to achieve helpful progressive intellectual production when referring to enslaved women in jesting criticality -- "Whore of Babylon". Better to write literally.

In the popular/media parlance of most states, a "conservative" is anyone who supports the foreign policy, and in particular, the violence, of his state with fanatical zeal.  A "liberal" is anyone who supports the foreign p...

Forum Post, July, 08 2011 Joseph Waters

The Left / Right paradigm is alive and well. Meanings don't change. 1+1 still equals 2. There is a Left and there is a right. By their ideology and policies, liberals are clearly part of the right-wing. They are moderate conservatives or cente...

The silence of liberals on this instance of undeniable censorship should be condemned for the self-serving and poltroonish submission to power that it is. But it is nothing new. Liberals are generally those who support the warmongering of THEIR ...

My Dad was the ultimate banker and gentleman in the 50's.  He wasn't home much because he was doing the banker thing of the time performing his civic duties for free.  I think he really enjoyed it.  Not much pay but he got s...

I am not surprised by this at all. The empire is apparently quite threatened by this film. In a way this is good news. Regardless of what one thinks of Mao overall, he was correct when he observed: "It is good and not bad that our enemy shoul...

Mr Kamm seems a very strange lad.  I wonder how much time he spends on this sort of thing.  It's not just Noam Chomsky, though Chomsky seems to be the Anti-Christ to the Eustonista, humanitarian-interventionist, far-right racist zion...
