A place with good food

The Yellow Vests in France: what I could have said here yesterday is that they represent what leaders of every democracy now fear: that a potent blend of progressive and populist forces, motivated by both ambition and rejection, would come together in some form of virulent political opposition to the corporate state. We just might see be seeing in France that epochal moment when the bourgeoisie join the proletariat to create a situation where anything might happen.

Leadership doesn't know what to do, how could it? Everything Marx predicted appears to be coming true: capitalism is exhausted, so hungry it's eating its own tail, though I can't imagine anyone in service to political and social justice now who would be willing to have their head cut off or their throat slit, as they might have been in the salad days of democracy, can you?
