Tell me what you see.
Can you see the hunger there
Strikes without a sound?
Can you see the food you burn
As you circle round?"

here's why they're still terrified of chavez, from his famous "devil speech" at the UN in 2006. remember, this was at the height of the bush regime's power, and chavez just went in there and humiliated him. listen to the delegates laughing
here's the full hour of buckley showing himself to be an incompetent hack pathetically flailing about to defend the genocidal slaughter in vietnam. and as ever chomsky stayed as cool as a cucumber as he meticulously took him apart

if you haven't seen the movie "Dark Waters" you definitely should: it's about how Dupont knowingly poisoned the world with carcinogens in products like teflon and regulatory agencies let them do it. 99% of all living creatures now have it in their blood. Biden just rewarded them:
there is no doubt that Biden (or rather, those controlling him) is going to put Dupont people in the EPA and other parts of his administration, as is already done with the transition team. That's also exactly what Obama did after explicitly pledging he wouldn't:

first listened to this about a week or so ago and it's now one of my favorite albums. every song on it is a classic
goddamn it really is every single song that's a banger. the only other albums I've come across that have this level of quality consistently throughout are dylan's streak in the 1960s

"Packed up my tools for my raw power move
Glock 19 for casket and flower moves"
