Expediency: the Death of Ideology
28-05-2006 16:29
While the forces of the traditional ‘left’ argue and analyse themselves into irrelevance (out of existence) the expedient right rumbles forward like a juggernaut. The left has been overwhelmed by simple expediency, the ‘whatever it takes’ (just get the job done) mentality is winning the day. Political correctness has all but destroyed the left whereas the right streaks ahead unburdened by any ethical issues. Ideology has been completely abandoned in favour of strategy. Any semblance to ideology is merely coincidental or a ruse/distraction.Activists arrested as gays defy Moscow Pride ban..

This June marks Jeff Free Luers' 6th year in prison. For the last three years, June 11th has been celebrated as an international day of solidarity with political prisoner Jeff Free Luers. This year has seen an increase in state repression against activists and radicals alike. It is truly a scary time, and in response we need to make June 11th a day of solidarity with all prisoners who stand up for the Earth and animal nations and resistance against those who stand against them.PHILIPPINES: NPA carnage in Bukidnon bared
