Alright, US Left, time for a little history lesson – and a cautionary tale. Can any of you out there name a single popular democratic people’s movement for peace, liberty or social/economic justice which wasn’t finally at some point infiltrated, co-opted and bled to death by the Democratic Party? Anybody?

Bueller?

Umbrella Revolution

By mike flugennockFriday - October 3rd, 2014Categories: Occupy, media

Ever notice how the “Occupy Central” protests in Hong Kong are getting so much positive coverage in the US Media? It’s no wonder, when you consider how much funding and training their “leaders” have gotten from US State Department front groups like the NED and USAID.

If your revolution has its own color or a cute nickname, then you just might be in a co-opted, stage-managed, NED-funded fake “revolution”.

Detroit Everywhere

Here’s one in solidarity with the nearly 150,000 residents of Detroit whose water is being shut off as part of a water system privatization scheme.

FIFA Gets The Red Card

By mike flugennockThursday - June 12th, 2014Categories: Globalization, Occupy

Fifteen thousand families have been forcibly relocated to make room for stadiums and infrastructure for the World Cup in Brazil.

A thousand military-backed police and 200,000 soldiers have been deployed for “security” and the suppression of popular protests against the eviction and displacement of poor families to make room for the World Cup. Police have raided the homes of activists and pre-emptively arrested at least 8 on the eve of the tournament.

Enjoy the football, everybody.
