[Dont Mention the War]

I grieve for the place with all the sadness, anger and self-reproach you feel when a loved one dies unnecessarily. I grieve for Antioch the way I grieve for the hope of 1968 washed away in a tide of self-inflated rhetoric, self-righteousness and self-indulgence.

Ha ha ha hee hee, ha ha haaa!

The ideals of social justice and economic fairness we embraced then are still right and deeply American. The discipline to turn those ideals into realities was what Antioch, its community and the generation it led was lacking. I fear it still is.

Bwa-ha-haaaaa!

“The ideals of social justice and economic fairness we embraced then are still right and deeply American.”

Goldfarb has some of his American history right, but he is blinded by his Liberalism.

America tried socialism at the Plymouth Colony. It killed about 40 percent of them in less than 18 months.

For the Goldfarbs and others who like socialism, communism, ad nauseam - consider Governor Bradford’s words regarding the starving winter at Plymouth Colony.

In 1623 he wrote, “This communism was nearly our undoing”.

Note to Goldfarb: Social justice and socialism are different.
