Abolitionism in the North has leagued itself with Radical Democracy, and so the Slave Power was forced to ally itself with the Money Power; that is the great fact of the age.




The triumph of the Democracy is essential to the struggle of popular liberty

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Would each state get an entry, or an "America's " competition?

I'm thinking of WandaVision when I'm reading this. I'm blaming my Marvel-obsessed friend :p

On another note, I have yet to watch Eurovision this year. I may turn to youtube to look if there is (if any) song that has been uploaded there.

Pizza tonight, grilled flank steak, potatoes, salad tomorrow.

Last night it was grilled sirloin with Thai(-themed) dressing and salad.

Tonight, it's Thai roast chicken (a nice sauce, with lemongrass), served on a bed of rice.

Thats grim.

Not shocking but a bit unfortunate for the entrant. The UK one was at least decent this year. The UK has sent plenty of dire entries where we thoroughly deserved nil poi (many a year, I've adopted another country for the night, just to feel less embarrassed).

Your probably right, but I hope not, all Cuban artists belong to the government and the revolution which is the same thing, they are all Pro Castros or they cant be artists, they all belong to ministry of Culture, everything in Cuba is Political and Pro the eternal Revolution, everything is considered another triumph of the eternal revolution. Even Cuban Family Remittances $ and Care Packages of Medicines and Toilet Paper.
