Some have asked, “Do race issues take precedence over class issues?” J. Sakai, author of Settlers: The Mythology of the White Proletariat, answers: This liberal intellectual polarity that “race issues” and “class issues” are opposites, are completely separate from each other, and that one or the other must be the main thing, is utterly useless! We have to get it that race issues aren’t the opposite of class issues. That race is always so electrically charged, so filled with mass power, is precisely because it’s about raw class. That’s why revolutionaries and demagogues can both potentially tap so much power using it. Or get burned. You can’t steer yourself in real politics, not in amerikkka, and not in this [system of] global imperialism, without understanding race. “Class” without race in “North America” is an abstraction. And vice-versa. Those who do not get this are always just led around by the nose, the manipulated without a clue—and it is true that many don’t want any more from life than this. But, wising up on race only means seeing all the class issues that define race & charge it with meaning. Why should it be so hard to understand that capitalism, which practically wants to barcode our asses, has always found it convenient to colourcode its classes?

Start your biodiesel saliva hyrbrid art car engines and beat it, shitwigs. Yes fellow haters, the oppressive and rancid fog of patchouli, grass-fed grass, and self-satisfaction has begun to lift over the greater Bay Area and elsewhere as exodus begins. Haight Street has hushed, Dolores Park is...

"Passengers, this is not a shoe. This is disorder. This is size ten chaos. This. See this? This is death."

Given that the train is a metaphor for our entire world, our societies, and capitalism in general, and that Bong is not anti-American per se, but prone to criticizing the aspects of US politics he doesn’t appreciate (see also his references to Vietnam war, CDC and Agent Orange in The Host), especially their influence worldwide… … do you think the shoe incident is a direct reference to the day Muntadhar al-Zaidi threw a shoe at Georges W. Bush? As if he saw in this event a way for Middle-East to invite the Bush government to fuck off? Oh, and by the way, Bush said later that al-Zaidi threw a size 10 shoe, and with Bong I don’t really believe in coincidences. Yes/no? Explain?
