Michelle Obama's Mirror ^ | 7-18-2013 | MOTUS

Why is everyone upset with Rolling Stone? They’re just doing what they do: celebrifying the base elements of society in order to make a buck. And let’s face it, it’s not as if Rolling Stone invented  “Très terror Chic” fashion.

Che Guevara t-shirts have been popular since the 60’s

Zapatista gear seemingly forever:

Keffiyehs since the 80’s

Mujahaddin scarves since the 90’s,

PKK guerilla

and "shemaghs"  since the ought’s. Of course, these all serve a very practical military purpose for both sides when you’re engaged in desert warfare.

Rolling Stone is simply giving their substantial audience what they want. The allure of the low life has seduced a near majority of Americans. Illicit drug use, fornication, adultery, homosexuality, widespread abortion,pornography loss of the work ethic, expectation of endless entitlements, decline of religion but a belief in neo pagan rituals are now the norm in America. There should be no suprise that a significant number of people are enamored by thugs and murdering terrorists. Sadly Ronald Reagan could not be elected today. Clinton and Obama were not elected and reelected by accident.
