How "enabling of genocide and full-on fascism so many commentators on the left are."

This is because there is no such thing as "the left" anymore. There are only fascists and anti-fascists. Americans have got to learn that there never was any "choice" between Team Blue and Team Red. It was always just Team Fascism sponsored by the various Big Oil, Big Pharma, Big Ag, etc., corporations, the MIC and AIPAC. If a commentator sympathizes with any politicians or party that works for Team Fascism, they have fallen into that dark deep pit of evil where genocide for profit isn't only inevitable, it's desirable. It gets rid of the "surplus population" to quote Ebenezer Scrooge.

That's why the only way out of this mess is to dump the duopoly fascists and support/vote for only socialist/eco-socialist candidates. We must choose "people, planet and peace" (to quote Jill Stein) and end the endless wars for oils and genocide of the DNC/RNC variety.

Wonderfully spot-on. We do not live in a democracy. We haven't lived in anything remotely resembling a democracy since at least 2000 when the Democrats let George W. Bush steal the election from that year's incarnation of the Lesser Evil.

Every time some Democrat apologist says "democracy," substitute "oligarchy" and then they at least make rational sense. Otherwise, it's just their cult's version of the Nicene Creed.

Thanks. It is one of the most cringe -- and dangerous -- platitudes of the day. It truly is "...their cult's version of the Nicene Creed."

Mark, thank you for another wonderful article. You must be a mind reader - since everything you say resonates so strongly with how I think and feel.

Thanks, Chang. I think this sick, twisted genocide has just ripped away the mask from the ghoul and it is so obvious what that nation is at it's core. I don't think they're going to be able to find enough red, white n' blue to paint over the truth.
