USA: More Repressive Than North Korea (was Re: RES: a trip to

[Max B. Sawicky]

> There is something completely insane about the proposition that bourgeeois
democracy is such a total fraud that even a cruel and repressive
dictatorship like NK, or Cuba (a far freer society than NK), with its scary
block warden thought police, is more free. There is no hint of dialectics
here, no sense of how the precious freedoms of bourgeois democracy represent
literally centuries of struggle from below against arbitrary power. The
attitude seems to be a simple mirror image reversal of the flatheaded right
wing reflex that this society is perfect because of freedoms the right
disapproves of. . . .

You must be new around here.
