Jeez, I know exactly what you and Karl mean.
When I was a delegate to the Greens Gathering in the early '90's, it drove me nuts that no one knew, or wanted to know, about Rush Limbaugh.
"Like, I don't listen to talk radio or watch TV, man. Vegan, too."
I was only seriously involved with the Greens for about 15 min., but I saw a lot of alienateing behavior. We had a fund raiseing dance and I had to have a snit-fit to keep the recycling catagories down to four. Still, people were very confused by the refuse ensemble, and needlessly intimidated,IMO.
BTW, I've been surprised by the breadth of folk who know Domino's is reactionary, anti-abortion outfit. I bring it up at work sometimes.
Is it possible that adjuncts(whatever they are) and medical residents, and young corporate types,etc, are made to suffer crueling schedules, at low saleries, just so they will become arrogant elitists. Or is it some penocentric, no pain, no gain thing? They keep you jumping through hoops, till you're ready to make others jump.
I'm not saying capitalism is men's fault, but I can't imagine even yukky women coming up with this system. But I'm repeating myself. Myself. Myself.
Still climbing pms
