Quote:I dispute his and anyone else' notions of a so called "Atlantacist" cabal.
Where exactly is the "Atlantac Ocean" again?
Once is a typo, twice is just ridiculous.
Quote:That's right in there with the "bankster" smear.
Who exactly are these banksters?
Presumably people who work at banks. Although I believe the correct nomenclature is "bankers".
Considering the financial industry has more than doubled in size as a share of the economy since 1980, money is apparently speech, and the Gini ratio for the US has soared, I don't believe it unreasonable to refer to the owners of large agglomerations of financial capital as a distinct class.
Quote:Anything that creates an artificial boundary between "the salt of the Earth" and so called "elites" is highly suspect. Things don't really work that way.
Yeah, I am going to have to disagree on that one. Hierarchy, social stratification, and inequalities in wealth and access to power/resources are pretty standard in human societies. The Pareto rule is a thing. So, I am going to stick with Pareto, Mosca, Quigley, Weber, Burnham, Dye, et al. and the evidence from, you know, all of human history versus random guy on the Internet.
