Right-Wing Media: All the Bullshit That’s Fit to Print   By David Starr   For decades, right-wing media has peddled more lies than anything else. In recent history, the right-wing media has  become a caricature  out of George Orwell’s novel “1984.”  A lot of doublespeak.    The media sure got off on the  landslide victory  of friendly fascist Ronald Reagan over the lukewarm Walter Mondale in the real year, 1984. Orwell’s title of his novel couldn’t be more appropriate. The  media, and Reagan’s followers , verbally masturbated enthusiastically over his victory.   While the right-wing media has been a cheerleader for right-wingers and conservatives over the years, it’s really gotten down to the absurd…and the insane. The “news” coverage has been  especially slavish  to the whims of Donald Trump, albeit, with subtle criticism. Very subtle.    There have been quite a number conservative/right-wing media outlets ...

  Israel May Become Nonexistent for Its Aggression, and It’s Israel That is to Blame By David Starr   Critics opposing Israel say that its military actions have as a  result created  one of the worst wars in the 21 st century. It’s just as bad as WWII because of Israel’s own Holocaust against Palestinians, committing war crimes such as attempted genocide and ethnic cleansing. And Israel’s fascist leaders, and their supporters, remain unapologetic, still continuing its barbaric actions against not only Palestinians, but also neighboring countries.   A  major factor  imposed for Israel’s objectives is oppressing others for not succumbing to Israel’s myths of religious supremacy. Believing unproven stories in the Bible, many Israelis want to impose a “Greater Israel” in the Middle East. This, obviously, is a dangerous idea and will only cause more tensions and hardships in the region.   But  behind Israel’s actions  is the United States emp...

  The Moral Bankruptcy of the Anti-Defamation League     By David Starr   On March 03, 2025 Anti-Defamation League (ADL) CEO Jonathan Greenblatt made a  speech  for the State of Hate / Never Is Now 2025 campaign. It was specifically a press release. In it, Greenblatt conjures up the same old stereotypes about how pro-Palestinian supporters are agents of Hamas, as well as terrorists. And he, like always with hardline Israeli supporters, whipped out the anti-Semitic card for practically any criticism made by people who oppose Israel’s attempted genocide and ethnic cleansing military campaigns.   Greenblatt said that “after months of allowing the harassment, intimidation, and even violence against Jewish students and faculty, many university presidents, certainly not all, but many have discovered the virtues of actually enforcing their policies on encampments and harassment.”   True, there is a reemergence of anti-Semitism but it’s not from Pale...

  Israel, Iran and the United States: Who Are the Real Terrorists?   By David Starr   For decades there has been  an imperial policy  that the USA, as an empire, operates in the Middle East. Many of the countries have been on the defensive in the Middle East mainly because of this policy. The  one country that has been on the offensive is Israel , considering how Uncle Sam spoils it with massive military aid, among other things. And Israel has been immune to criticism and condemnation with the help of U.S. leaders who have been complicit in the “Holy Land’s” actions against other countries in the region.   Now, most of the  world sees Israel as a rogue state , with its continuing war crimes and genocide in Gaza, the West Bank, and its military targeting of neighboring countries. But, the USA monetary empire still will not take Israel to task and stop the weapons flow. Many U.S politicians are essentially in the “pockets” of the Israeli lobby in th...

  Fascism – American Style   By David Starr   “The great strength of the totalitarian state is that it forces those who fear it to imitate it.” –Adolph Hitler   Hitler’s remark wouldn’t be possible in the United States years ago, where the U.S. citizenry would rebel against such a state.    But considering the words and actions of the Trump regime, it’s more and more clear that Trump wants to try and impose a totalitarian state, like fascism which is corporate private monopolies aligned with government in a heavily centralized state. It can occur when there is a crisis in capitalism and leading to outright fascism.   More and more it’s being proven that Trump is employing similar words and actions Adolph Hitler used. The comparison is becoming more evident.   Los Angeles is a shocking example of ICE and LAPD thugs attacking peaceful protesters who are justifiably angered by the fascist actions, spurred on by Trump, of said thugs abducting immigran...

  Neoliberals – The Selling Out of the Democratic Party By David Starr   Historically, the Democratic Party has been known or reputed to support the interests of the working class and the poor. This is true to some degree but it is contradicted by a powerful tendency within the party that has controlled the leadership, and are currently entrenched in power: Corporate/neoliberal/Third Way Democrats.    With the election of Bill Clinton in 1992 especially, the  Democratic Party establishment  has referred to itself as “New” Democrats, where they created a “Third Way” as an attempt to put forth an “alternative” to the party’s degree of working-class roots. That is, to become more business-friendly. The result was that the party leaned to the right. The establishment became very corporatized, putting a focus on the private monopolies of capitalists.    This change in policy became  antithetical to prioritizing working class interests . While the ...
