Re: <nettime> Wisconsin report |
The Wisconsin protest is ridiculous -- nary a face wizened by demanding toil, instead mirrors of the officials they jape and intimidate for greater largesse of divied-up tax loot. Typical of cosseted unions. "Fat slobs" -- a vacuous cliche beloved of fat-headed slobs -- most of them, with pretentious courage emblazoned by maudlin repetition of slogans earned by hard laborers in days long past hard labor. Contentious only when their sick days, snow days, days off, training days, preggie -- real and false -- days, child sick and grandparent funeral days, famous people days, blood drive days, religious and atheist holidays, continuing education days, extended vacation days, sabbaticals and research for the government log-rolling temporary weeks, days to attend back-scratching conferences and predations on aspirng union members, days to arrange union-busting protests, gee-gaw perqs tailored to fit a union's multiple and vagaried personas, not to mention insurance and pensions and disability benefits, and stuff non-unionists would not believe existed outside montaries and nunneries of the rich, are threatened. Salaries of union officials are criminal as with quite a few NGOs -- for the latter gander tax reports of ACLU and Open Society and many more. Unions and NGOs are dirty dealers with those they ostensibly oppose to screw those not able to get in on it. Protests are fund-raisers and publicity for recruiting. Sol Alinsky rolls in his grave. Followers of Sol are unionized and avidly promoting the vile practice or rigged protests and unionizing as empowering, which it is for unions, NGOs and their cohorts across the table, institutions the facilitators. Organized anything is perniciously exclusive. You see a organized union protestor watch your wallet as if being panhandled by organized religion or defense thugs. These sacred cows support the most villainous organizations on earth by shutting out infidels. Next, a word about bribery of socialism for soft-soap sophistries about capitalism. There are no seeds of dissent, much less wild plant growth, merely well-tended gardens of learned simulacra labelled and branded for dimwits. # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: http://mail.kein.org/mailman/listinfo/nettime-l # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@kein.org
