DARK AGES AMERICA -- Blog for Morris Berman: the guy pulls no punches. Here he summarizes his blog entries in recent years ...
"-When we declared the US was going down the tubes, everyone laughed.
-When we argued that Obama wasn’t any different from Bush Jr., except that he could speak English, they laughed even harder.
-When we pointed out that America was, and always had been, about hustling, and therefore had no moral center and thus no future, they spluttered and raged.
-When we predicted that Occupy Wall Street had no coherent ideology or organization, no staying power, and that “the 99%” really just wanted to get into “the 1%”; and (to make matters worse) that the American population literally didn’t have the gray matter to pull off any kind of positive social change, they raged even further. Many rolled around on the floor, foaming at the mouth.
-When we scored technology as the hidden religion of the United States, and thus a bogus form of progress, they became apoplectic, and massaged their cell phones just to calm down.
-And yet, all of these things, in addition to additional arguments put forward on this blog by myself and other Wafers, proved, in the fullness of time, to be true."
