LET'S GET BACK TO THE REVOLUTION


"Volunteers of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade arrive in Barcelona 17th January 1937." I guess that was when a revolution looked like a revolution, socialism was a virtue, sacrifice was willingly made, and no one was in love with their cell phone. (Pic from Valerie.)

CRYPTIQUEHow does one explain to a white or latino, working-class, middle-American racist that the sharp black dude might just be smart enough to save the country, but the doddering old white fool is a bought-and-paid-for hack, and the implausible broad with him is such a nightmare that, if locked up in room with her for an hour, our boy would be begging to be let out in just 17 minutes?
