New Humans Just Like The Old Ones

Young writers and activists lack historical perspective and are clueless about human nature. People have not changed for 5,000 years. But the progressive Boston Phoenix says "It's inherently fascinating that a movement spawned from outrage over greed was tainted by thievery." The 99 percent are just as human and greedy as the one percent. Get used to it.

The second outrage regularly appearing in the progressive Boston Phoenix is its negative stereotyping of persons with disabilities. The use of negative terms like "bipolar" and "nut job" as in this article are disgusting but normal usage at this "alternative" paper. How is the Phoenix different from lame stream media insulting persons with disabilities? The Phoenix is shameless just like the greedy politicians who oppress the Occupant movement while they attack greedy corporate leaders who are no different than themselves.

He also grew active in his local LGBT community, and that year was named the southeast coordinator for the equal-rights group Equality Alabama. A skilled fundraiser, Carnes helped Birmingham state representative Patricia Todd become the first ever openly gay pol to win office in Alabama.
