There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind.
Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
And the dark street winds and bends.
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
To the place where the sidewalk ends.
Yes we’ll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And we’ll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends.
by Shel Silverstein
The steel mill sky is alive.
The fire breaks white and zigzag
shot on a gun-metal gloaming.
Man is a long time coming.
Man will yet win.
Brother may yet line up with brother:
This old anvil laughs at many broken hammers.
There are men who can’t be bought.
The fireborn are at home in fire.
The stars make no noise,
You can’t hinder the wind from blowing.
Time is a great teacher.
Who can live without hope?
In the darkness with a great bundle of grief
the people march.
In the night, and overhead a shovel of stars for keeps, the people
march:
“Where to? what next?”
— Carl Sandberg

I wanted that to be funny, but it is the sad truth of stupid.
I wonder, how much carbon monoxide and how long would it take?
The Uber-correct nature of these people will be troweled into the cement if their true party leadership ever gets to real power in our nation. Socialism is a tool to reduce all citizens to the lowest common denominator and not one to elevate them in status.
This convention is a joke only because we have seen in our history too many times that movements with the word ‘Socialist’ bulldoze the class system of an entire nation leaving starvation and human rights abuses as its trademark.
It is my fervent hope that America is never overrun by people who claim that they are socialist. It is the political equivalent of Ebola.
That phrase “comrades”… where have I heard that before?
Severian at Rotten Chestnuts reminds us of a figure from history, and how he’s relevant to the DSA:
Speaking Of Stalin
“If these…organisms… are “The Revolution,” then what could we possibly have to worry about?
Lots.”
Oh, damn it. Sorry, Gerard.
Thanks for the fixing, Gerard.
