Class solidarity is exactly what we need, and if billionaires and multimillionaires break rank to join us, we most certainly can welcome them, with caution of course.
gave up on the whole "Democracy will repair itself" thing after the election.
Comparing to russian opposition, it surprises me that "democracy will repair itself" is popular. It was understood somewhere in 2013 by nationalists, "right" and "left". "Democracy is a muscle, that needs to be excercised regularly" as Ekaterina Shulman (recently) said.
Absolutely. I feel empathy for the United CEOs family, while also recognizing they are going to be financially fine. They also have a chance to reflect on any grief and how affected families may not be sympathetic for valid reasons. Whether they do or not depends on whether they value healing, or greed/retribution.
Why does it need defending? I'm not saying they are deserving of the same fate as Brian, but I don't feel bad for them for no longer having such a vile man around. If they are good people as you say, they would rejoice as well.
"They are nearly as demented as him." That's why. I don't know any of those people, but this whole "sins of the father" bullshit doesn't fly in the modern world. They aren't responsible for what a douchebag he was, or anything he did a UHC. In fact it looks like at least his wife figured out he was a douchebag since she left him. So I'm just wondering what your source for the claim was.
