Our house is on fire. Join the resistance: Do no harm/take no shit. My idiosyncratic and confluent bricolage of progressive politics, the collaborative commons, next generation cognitive neuroscience, American pragmatism, de/reconstruction, dynamic systems, embodied realism, postmetaphysics, psychodynamics, aesthetics. It ain't much but it's not nothing.

Democrats favor socialism over capitalism
Continuing this post, maybe not so fast. This new Gallup poll shows that 57% of Democrats favor socialism while only 47% favor capitalism. It's the first time in Gallup polling over the last decade that socialism has surpassed capitalism in the polling. This is largely due to Millennials, whose entire short lives have been hampered by the rampant income inequality and lack of employment opportunities from the dominant yet declining system. Unfortunately 71% of Repugnantans still favor capitalism while only 16% favor socialism, so to win over at least a few of those votes we'll still have to frame socialism differently.
