Something Odd
You know whats really pathetic? Go here. and then go over to any blogs of the scions of the "left" (or whatever's left of it). And you'd notice that not only there is NO interest, no comments and no activity on these blogs, but also the fact that most (at least the ones I checked) have not been updated since may/june 2004.
What I find really pathetic is that the left these days would like to make the last fulching dime off of its potential readers before it would offer anything of substance.
The reason lefties don't reach the people is NOT that they don't have access to media outlets, but the fact that they would rather get their freaking "donations" before they would allow anyone to post a comment. How freeking pathetic is that?
I mean, not a single person was willing to be loyal enough to the "cause" to purchase a 10 dollar membership so they could post a comment? It really pisses me off. Is Noam Chomsky really hurting for money? or this GIANT on the left is so far left behind that he can't figure out how to start blogging on typepad.chomsky.com ??
When you put barriers between you and the people, then how the fuck will you counter the nit-wits who invoke the "liberal-elitist attitudes" in their cultural war against you?
P.S. to Noam: Not only are they winning the war, they've got your collective pants down and are shafting the left doggie-style.
drop it like its hot.
Same thing with adbusters. These self-proclaimed, defeatest individuals think that a futile exercise in design is somehow related to the struggle for the soul of humanity. How the fuck does a magazine that proclaims (or at least pretends) to stand for the poor, the downtrodden and the opressed, manage to find the BALLS to print a 10 dollar magazine?
Do these fuckers know that most poor people don't have more than 4-5 dollars a day to spend. That is of course assuming that they won't be kicked out of the high-end stores that these fuckers send theiry glossy ass magazine to? That magazine is for the we're so oppressed cuz "we didn't have a 50 foot pool while we was growin up" types.
I guess I will exhale now.
