We start with comic absurdity--a funny satire on the Obamacare rollout.
Then we move to scary absurdity--the NYPD shoots some more innocent bystanders, then blames the unarmed man they were shooting at for the bystanders' bullet wounds.
We end with global calamity, with a fine talk (from 2011) by radical ecology activist DERRICK JENSEN.
Something for everybody!
Obamacare article from SatireWire.com. NYPD Story from the NY Times, December 4, 2013. (Both articles edited for clarity and condensed by me.) Probably I found the link to Derrick Jensens speech on unwelcomeguests.net.
