*by Noah* Mutiny isn't just a metaphor, it's a calling. Saving The United States Of America can't wait until election day. We need mass mutinies across every sector of American life. Who's to know that this country and what's left of its democracy can even survive five more excruciating long months until some alleged election day? Everybody is being way to nice. Trump is an absolute madman but people think nothing really bad will happen. When it does, the same idiots will say "Who knew? Who could have known?" Fucking idiots.

REUTERS/Jonathan Ernst] “This is the worst time ever to raise energy prices.” While many Virginia residents are still reeling from the effects of COVID-19, their elected officials from Gov.

Why are White Supremacists Involved in the Black Lives Matter Protests?
*Matthew Valasik, Shannon Reid* *Politics, America* These groups are attempting to instigate violence between the police, protesters and the public. As protests about police violence among black people continue and become more widespread across the U.S., certain individuals and groups have begun to stand out – including anarchists, agitators and members of a variety of far-right groups. With the country’s long history of racist killings, it may be confusing to think that racists and white supremacists are among those objecting to the killing of people of color. But people affil... more »
Why America Can't Stop Its Allies From Buying Advanced Russian Weapons
*Nikolay Pakhomov* *Security, Middle East* Turkey and the S-400 is the perfect case study. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *One can conclude that at the moment Washington lacks means to stop the Turkish purchase of Russian air defense systems S-400. If other Middle Eastern countries follow Turkey as S-400 buyers, it will be obvious that the United States is far from an undefiable force in the region.

Why the Ghost of Slavery Still Haunts America
*Alma Carten* *Society, Americas* America simply won't face up to its own history. Several years back, in announcing the federal indictment of Charleston killer Dylann Roof, then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch commented that the expression of forgiveness offered by the victims’ families is “an incredible lesson and message for us all.” Forgiveness and grace are, indeed, hallmarks of the Black Church. Since slavery, the church has been a formidable force for the survival of blacks in an America still grappling with the residual effects of white supremacy. This was eloquently il... more »
FACT: Russia And China Could Have Started a Nuclear War in 1969
*Robert Farley* *Security, * A decade before, Dwight Eisenhower had outlined the Soviet Union’s biggest obstacle in a war with China: what to do after you win. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The most likely outcome of war would have been short Chinese success, followed by a sharp, destructive Soviet rebuke. Such an outcome would have served to drive Beijing even more fully into the arms of the United States, which is likely one reason that the Soviets decided not to risk it.

Tearing Down Confederate Statues Won’t End Racism in America
*Anne C. Bailey* *Society, Americas* The monuments may be gone, but structural racism is still intact. When protesters tore down the “Silent Sam” Confederate statue at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill on Aug. 20, it wasn’t just destruction of state property - a crime for which the protesters are now being investigated. Rather, the protesters knocked a powerful symbol of white supremacy from its pedestal - both literally and figuratively. Silent Sam, after all, was meant to pay tribute to those who wanted to maintain slavery. With the backing of the state, Silent Sam ... more »

Reality Is Gradually Catching Up To Green Energy
* If you dutifully read your U.S. mainstream media, you undoubtedly have the impression that “clean” and “green” energy is rapidly sweeping all before it, and soon will supplant fossil fuels in powering our economy. * After all, many major states, including California and New York, have mandated some form of “net zero” carbon emissions by 2050, or in some cases even earlier.

More Voters Are Catching On-- Trump's Overall Job Approval: 38%

No Teachers Teach Average Students
The average height of the staff here at the Curmudgucation Institute is about 4.5 feet (the Board of Directors really pulls the average down).
