Rema...Gooberdämmerung: Twilight Of The Douchebags.<br /><br />Remarkable that so many could despise & dread globalism - all the while having their lives massively enriched & kept safe by the rise of globalism. <br /><br />If war is a failure of diplomacy, fascism is a failure of society.<br /><br />Lasting immunity from such failures is now a live issue. Neither goal has been feasible prior to a period within living memory. <br /><br />For fascists, Trump's not a mighty messiah - he's a Hail Mary play.<br />jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06840719620959481121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-12207485201563281732016-11-07T10:11:06.680-06:002016-11-07T10:11:06.680-06:00Here in Oregon through the beautification of mail-...Here in Oregon through the beautification of mail-in voting, a wonderment of ease and efficiency, I cast my vote more than three weeks ago.

Probably my favorite album from the last quarter of the 20th Century was the "Mermaid Avenue" project with Billy Bragg and Wilco bringing to life some of Woody's writing that never made it to music. Incredible stuff.<br /><br />Not sure if you've caught this yet, Drifty - but Jay Rosen at PressThink.org just posted a great article a few days ago: "Speaking truth to audience power".
