Sir Christopher Lee: (1922-2015) a Knight, a member of the SAS in WWII, an acclaimed actor in over 280 films including “Star Wars” and “Lord of the Rings”, and yes a balloon in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. He truly was bigger than life.
If we’re going to make the Associated Press a target because they collaborated with the nazis during WW2, here’s a list of some other equally-guilty corporations that should be targeted:
-Hugo Boss -Fanta -Coca-Cola -IBM -VW -Mercedes -BMW -Adidas -Ford -GM -Barclays -ThyssenKrupp -Siemens -Beyer -BASF -Chase National Bank -Junkers -IG Farben -Porsche -Swarovski -Steyr Arms
That’s a lot of burning to do to a bunch of corporations that did horrible things 75 years ago. Might it be a better use of our time, energy, and resources to target those individuals, groups, and corporations that are cooperating with, enabling, and promoting fascists and fascism today in 2020 instead?
On this day, 26 November 1883, the formerly enslaved woman and pioneering feminist, Black emancipationist and poet Sojourner Truth died in Michigan aged 86. She was born into slavery in a Dutch-speaking community in New York, and later gave birth to five children. She escaped in 1827, and with the support of an abolitionist family, successfully sued for the return of one of her sons who had been illegally sold in Alabama. After moving to New York City she became a charismatic preacher, helping enslaved people escape and advocating for abolitionism, and for women’s rights, including women’s suffrage. During the civil war Truth assisted the Union side, and after the war she helped people formerly enslaved in the South build new lives, often as wage workers. Truth remained active until the end of her long life, spending time in her later years campaigning for land redistribution to formally enslaved people – which was famously promised as “40 acres and a mule”, but was never delivered. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1593347900850354/?type=3
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
