The establishment and their media have been incredibly successful deceiving and deranging progressive people to the point that I could weep.  

To read comments here, it would seems that we who once hoped for better world are now determined and vocal defenders of the shadowy intelligence agencies who overthrew Allende. We are now solid supporters of the small handful of huge conglomerates that now control our cultural and information highways.  And we cheer and stamp our feet for the imperial NATO agenda.

What the hell??
