Viva Zapata! Er, zapatos. Er. Zapatoistas?
I still disagree that this person should be praised. As I stated in my blog, as horrible a president as W. Bush has been, he is still the President. Of course I am speaking within the United States. He should be lampooned, he should be cursed, he should be held accountable in an international court for his imperialist actions, etc. We are all frustrated with the last eight years of his hegemony. But, what do such actions accomplish? They relieve some stress and anger. And where does it end. Do we accept rocks thrown at him? How about a Molotov cocktail?
If journalist’s questions are screened, the news simply repeats the lies that come out of politicians mouths, and the media itself is treated as and thinks that it is a servant of the Holy President than any act of resistance becomes revolutionary.
Sorry, but “respectability” and “dignity” are bourgeois concepts to keep people from being anything more than servants.
genius.
