Leftists blame local struggles on capitalism (Old Left, New Left, Gay Left and the left-behind Left)

Monday, after all, was May Day.

The marchers sure did get the message about carrying US flags, I see, but they just couldn't resist their commie roots.

[MaineVoter2002]

Yes they are in USENET & GOOGLE POLITICAL NEWSGROUPS trying to blame republicans and capitalism

[backhoe]

I have been covering, ( Or, as Seamole calls it...-backhoe's pseudoblog--... ) psuedo-blogging, for years, a couple of the elements in WWIV ( III being the Cold War ), in which we find ourselves engaged.

The first element?

Islam, a Religion of Peace®? ( links, blogs, quips, quotes, aggravating pictures ) is located here- click the Pic, and scroll backwards:

The other, somewhat interlocking element is this one:

"Thunder on the Border," click the picture:

What is happening under the radar is that the alien lobby, certain elements of radical Islam, and some on the Left share common goals, tactics, and exploitations of our system and society.

See "ANSWER" in the poster?

Work backwards on my links to see all the shady left-wing and terrorist-enabling organizations backing this nonsense.

And since it began more than century ago to commemorate the police killings of protesting workers anarchists in Chicago in 1886

[Always Right]

We would be so much better off under a Communists style system and their gulags....

[Rte66]

Some illegal immigrant protest participation numbers on TV just now:

400,000 Los Angeles

400,000 Chicago

30,000 Florida

20,000 New York City

15,000 Houston

Effect on the economy: 0

These people should be beating a path to Bolivia. . .why not go where the politics are now being served up in true communist style.

Mexicans don't like Capitalism???

[Andy from Beaverton]

[groovejedi]

oh sure these are exactly the kind of immigrants that built America. /s

We are in big trouble if we don't build a border fence and stop this soon!

[MileHi]

You can add 75,000 in Denver.

[Thombo2]

Good point.Americans haven't seen anything yet,and we're already in big trouble.As far as a fence is concerned don't expect the feds to do it.We've been sold out:(

[groovejedi]

What is it going to take from us to get these things done, like get a fence built, and enforce immigration laws already on the books? I mean, what can we do.... actually? I wonder if there is anything that can be done to reverse this tidal wave.

[Turbopilot]

Arturo Guerrero, a 56-year-old educator, who said he has participated in leftist protests since 1968

38 years and still oppressed and downtrodden, huh? Looks like fighting the Man isn't quite working out for Arty here...maybe it's time to try something else.

"We are struggling for another Mexico, one that doesn't obligate its workers to migrate somewhere else to find a dignified life."

Fantastic. 'Cept all the protestors hate the big corporations who generate the jobs and economic growth that give the illegal immigrants a reason to come here in the first place. The fewer eeeeeeeeevil big businesses they have in Mexico, the more Mexicans they'll have in the U.S. I just don't understand how it's possible to agitate for two completely contradictory and mutually exclusive goals at the same time.

[Thombo2]

"What can we do...to reverse this tidal wave?"Realistically....nothing.Even if a tough no-amnesty law were passed(unlikely),it would simply not be enforced at the local/state level.Expect the illegal invasion to continue.As the illegal pop continues to grow(illegals and their dependants)local gov will not be able to function.Flight from these areas by the tax base(middle and upper middle classes)that finance services(police,fire,etc)will hasten the decline.Localities in the border states will be first.

[groovejedi]

I can't help feeling like there HAS to be somethign that can be done, that will be done. Obviously we cannot continue on this path and expect to remain a civilized nation for very much longer. There has to be an alternative to just allowing the nation to spiral into chaos

I just don't understand how it's possible to agitate for two completely contradictory and mutually exclusive goals at the same time.

Nuance. It takes nuance.
