Well, it’s over.\u00c2\u00a0 All this time the nation has been infiltrated and encroached and controlled by a massive Fascist Movement — weaving into the fabrif of this nation and this world from all directions.\u00c2\u00a0 But so long as we’ve had a single effecitve bullwark — one Alex Constantine <\/a>— posting various news article to his blog — we have had a single sliver of hope that a small mite might be compounded into a giant log that will jam up the Great Cylindar of Fascism.<\/p>\n

So it is that Alex Constantine has thrown in the towel for a year, and will cease to fight Fascism.\u00c2\u00a0 This means, of course, that Fascism now has a full year to advance, unmolested by Constantine’s impediments.\u00c2\u00a0 This last week, he posted:<\/p>\n

the fascists have little opposition – and time and again the proles take the next step in fascist imposition grinning like brain-damaged Presbytarians, joyously repeating the latest programmed, self-aggrandizing lies. Reality is driven underground.<\/em><\/p>\n

It’s all over.\u00c2\u00a0 The only possible hope comes in the fact that this message was deleted, and is no longer on his blog, suggesting that maybe the Anti-Fascist Crusader will continue to stave off Fascism.\u00c2\u00a0 Because if he doesn’t… it’s all over.\u00c2\u00a0 Because no body is posting stories from his vantage point… no body… no body.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
