The fucking pundit class is acting like a bunch of chattering ninnies. The rich folks have let their money and positions of power reduce them to egotistical little babies who think the world owes them everything.
The radical stance, one I am firmly committed to: cool, calm, careful, common-sensical. Wielding clarity & clear-headed-ness like weapons against ignorance, and their weirdly hollow-silliness. I turn to minds and voices that have a sense of decency, history, a nuanced perception of reality. There are a few of these folks floating out there in a sea of idiocy and madness.
I used to think of myself as a bit of rebel, on the margins, oh yeah, now that stance pushes me to a strangely moderate island, surrounded by a crazy-making culture of madness. WTF.
