(PS: This doesn't in any way mean that I get things right, or that I quickly spot the critical issues. Sometimes I get it drastically wrong. I rely on the rest of you to correct me and alert me - as do we all. Our hope lies in the genius of crowds.)

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet. This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
