>It is almost criminal
to fuck up a discussion of racial oppression by dragging in such vicious nonsense about the cause of AIDS.

(((((((((((((((


>CB: Weren't these sort of two different threads ? The white race and
another thread, the cause of AIDS .

Aw, as Susan Sontag said in "Styles of Radical Will, " (I think), "The White Race Is The Cancer of Human History."

And here is a neo-Nazi website that peddles AIDS conspiracy theories. The Strecker Memorandum webcast is a must see for the creepiness co-factor. http://www.thule.org/strecker.html

P.S. On water flouridation, I have read of the Atomic Energy Commission origins of it. But that was in Nexus, a New Age/Conspiracy Theory rag out of New Zealand, commonly found at your local natural/organic food co-op.

Michael Parenti having a piece there recently recently raised even these jaded eyebrows. The City Lights staff had a chuckle. Why is Verso gonna be publishing his new screed? Makes me embarrasssed that his Democracy For The Few rad poli sci textbook was one of those books I read avidly some 20+ yrs. ago. In retrospect, a text like Doug Dowd's The Twisted Dream: Capitalist Development In the US was a better read.
