Keeping Tabs On The Bastards
Morning Comrades! I trust you all had a good enough weekend and are ready for another week of this. I know I am. To get us all in the mood, here is the new playlist for this week. Fuck knows what was happening last week but this playlist is all over the place, in a good way mind you but do not attempt to make reason out of this one. There are a couple of stellar new tracks, covers and mixes in here as well as some deep cuts from around the globe. You know what to do.
There are a few articles i dug into over the weekend that I am going to be sharing with you. These should cover you until Wednesday when this returns. First off, the ever brilliant Carole Cadwalladr has started writing on this platform under the guise of “Keeping the Receipts” and if you are into proper, investigative journalism that keeps tabs on government and big tech corruption this is your place. The most recent article made my skin crawl and whilst it pertains mostly to the UK’s NHS and big data, the implications are global and relevant for all of us.
The second piece is relevant to my own story and constant surprise, disgust and rage. After 9/11 a series of writers, professors and philosophers got together and kick started a new resurgence of atheism, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins to name the famous ones and their work at the time certainly had a significant impact on me. This article deals with these and other people and how they dropped off the deep dickhead end and it essentially is a great case study of how power and structures can and mostly do corrupt.
Following up is the brilliant and insightful Sarah Kendzior from Gaslight Nation with a series of tweets based on a podcast she did on what the ex-Trump goons were and still are up to, this time in regards to Israel. I cannot stress how important it is to keep tabs on these fascist pigs, Sarah does so.
With that, here is your healthy dose of hot shots and the fuckening for you to share, get pissed off about and you know.
