How long ago did they cap the leak? And how many legitimate claims are still “pending” from damages they suffered back in the beginning of the summer? I happen to know three people that were affected directly by BP’s shady PR tactics and manipulation of our laws, one of whom was a journalist who was almost arrested and charged with felonies for taking pictures of oil covered animals near the coast. Not only is it bad enough that thousands of fishers’ lively hoods are ruined for god knows how many years to come, they were paid a pathetic amount of money to clean up BP’s own mess. To add even more insult to injury, BP used Corexit 9527, which contains mainly 2-butoxyethanol, which is very toxic. You wouldn’t have to be a scientist to know that, since in the first week of using it over 70 fisherman ended up at the hospital. Of course if you even inquired about this, I’m sure the govt (which is pretty much owned by oil companies) would deal with you quite quickly, let alone taking pictures of it in an attempt to run a story on it. If you didn’t know already, the govt is doing what they do best… crapping on the 1st amendment: <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/029130_Gulf_of_Mexico_censorship.html" rel="nofollow"> naturalnews.com/029130_Gulf_of_Mexico_censorship.html</a>. My friend who almost got arrested on felony charges simply went out on a boat into about 30 feet of water and used a water proof cam to photograph one of the many oil plumes forming at the bottom of the surface (which BP vehemently denies). Now here comes the hilarious part. He switched the film in his camera with a blank one in the event they were stopped by police, which they were as soon as they got back to shore. They let him go but still took his name down, and what do you know... later that night, 2 guys wearing black hoodies attempted to break into his house. He caught pics of them on his home security system (he saved the pics… <a href="http://www.homesecuritysystems.com/adt-wireless-home-security" rel="nofollow">adt wireless alarm system</a> break in photos). Hmm, I wonder who paid these guys to break in and what they were after? Definitely not BP or our govt, that’s for sure!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10169669872104989062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587692956982824008.post-36731442082655766212010-08-23T19:21:09.086-07:002010-08-23T19:21:09.086-07:00Thanks a ton, Immortal Mountain!

Re...thenecromancer-- thank you for your kind words! Reich was such a multifaceted and interesting guy. His system of psychology went where no one wanted to go at the time, not to mention being a harsh, incisive critic of the Third Reich all the way back in 1933.

In a free society, or viewed by someone who is in touch with and free with their sexuality,porn serves as a complement to it. However, in a deeply puritanical and sexually repressed society, porn serves as a tool in pumping up the fascist impulse, as violence, sadism, and authoritarian control are a sublimation of the sexual energy. Porn one might say,or more to the point, sexual stimulation, is the fuel of fascist aggression. Hence the term "wargasm."<br />Great stuff!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587692956982824008.post-7057959583403313292010-04-21T12:01:29.703-07:002010-04-21T12:01:29.703-07:00I only listened to tidbits of the podcast, but the...I only listened to tidbits of the podcast, but the overall link between Reich and anarchism is an interesting one. I've been doing work on Reich through the lens of vitalism, which naturally tends towards the metaphysical, but he had other influences. The whole <i>sex-pol</i> period in the 1920s in Vienna where he helped sex workers, the poor, street people and teenagers with birth control and psychiatric advice was well ahead of its time and definitely in line with anarchism...<br /><br />Good stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
