david robertsI've said this before but the most pathetic thing about current RW culture wars is that they are defending a lifestyle -- giant SUVs, highways, strip malls, fast food, suburbs, poisonous/deadly consumer products -- that is 100% a creation of late-20th century corporations.
It's not some authentic just-folks small-town Mayberry life. It's a life of shitty, dangerous, disposable junk, foisted on these people by multinational corporations, and they're out defending every bit of it with their lives, like f'ing chumps.
One universal truth about the forces of reaction -- at any time, in any country -- is that they are being relentlessly exploited, manipulated, and grifted from above by people who don't give a shit about them, and they never seem to care.
The Big Daddy tells them to get angry about light bulbs, they get angry about light bulbs.
