Mainstream media has largely ignored two recent events that would have attracted sustained media attention in the past. Half a million Hispanics and other protesters flooded the streets of LA while in France a staggering three million protesters confronted the authorities. These protests occurred in quick succession but barely rated a mention in the popular press. Activists and analysts have been aware for some time that the independence and impartiality of the mass media has been compromised. Regardless of the magnitude and impact of a specific event, if it is considered to be incompatible with certain interests, it is disregarded.

revealing observation on your part, Ron, the separation of individuals and forces are bourgeois notions. The common denominator is of course minority government against majority will or how about vested interests against public welfare - there are actually so many connections I would tire of listing them all.

Where did you learn to divide and separate? Ask yourself who taught you to think in isolated modes - alienation is a tool of the ruling elites.

This type of divisionism is not confined to 'fascists', imperialists and other obvious offenders. The black hand of censorship (divisionism) is evident on UK indy; consider the action against this article comparative to others that have been published:

The (r)Evolution must begin in the mind (personal then social struggle) . Expression in the world is then only a matter of course.

Divisionism is a the basis of all conflict!

Are you suggesting that the protests in France and America are linked?
I don't think the Mexicans in LA or the Muslims in France have common cause or even care if eachother exist. Mentioning the two is like comparing the victims Katrina and the Tsunami - two completely unconnceted events and groups of people
