About US propaganda in USA


By Caitlin Johnston


“Literally” is one of the most misused words in the English language today, but that is not the case with the headline of this article. I am not claiming here that pro-establishment Democrats are figuratively neocons, and I do not mean to say that they are hecka-hella-kinda-sorta like neocons. I say literally because the Democratic party is now quite literally an overwhelmingly neoconservative party in every way that matters.
At the time of this writ...ing, the so-called “March for Truth” is currently underway, a demonstration in which establishment liberals attempt to leverage Trump’s unpopularity with the left to get true leftists and progressives onboard with their Russiagate conspiracy theory. The stated goal of these demonstrations is to draw attention to their demand for an investigation into the possibility of Trump’s collusion with Russia to win the 2016 election, but it’s unclear how they plan on bringing more attention to something which already gets unlimited ad nauseum coverage on all media every single day of the motherfucking week. I’ve heard it speculated that their demands include extending the Rachel Maddow Show to six hours in length and adding an eighth day of the week for more #TrumpRussia coverage.

As these brave warriors of the McResistance don their pussyhats and prepare to project their inner childhood wounds upon an icy potato patch on the other side of the planet that they never spent any percentage of their day thinking about until less than a year ago, I am reminded of an interesting article I read a while back by award-winning investigative journalist Robert Parry titled “The Kagans Are Back; Wars to Follow”. Parry details how most members of the “neocon royalty family” Kagans moved away from their traditional allies in the Republican party as Trump knocked them down one-by-one in the last election cycle, and began aligning with Hillary Clinton and the “liberal hawks”, whose agendas aligned beautifully with their own. These elites of the neocon think tanks were already pointing their omnicidal ideology at full-fledged collaboration with Clinton and plotting ways to bring the liberal base on board with neoconservative foreign policy once Clinton and Trump emerged as the clear presidential frontrunners.
