	10:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Not Knowing What You're Doing" by "Sterling Hayden" wfmu.org...
	10:15pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Scott_Oz @10:01 Our little corner of the world is present & accounted for eh!
	🎙 10:16pm Jherweg: P wits is music from your own backyard Chris c
	10:18pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Jherweg @10:16 Cool! Not familiar with them but we've only been here 2.5 years.
	🎙 10:18pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Chris Crisco @10:15 Indeed Chris! I'm a bit dozy the Monday public holiday though mate. Massive weekend of muckups! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	10:19pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Scott_Oz @10:18 April Fool's day too! Do they have that down here?
	🎙 10:22pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Chris Crisco @10:19 Yeah mate, but I don't go for it myself.
	10:29pm Bob in DC: I dg that 1/2 and 1/2. Thank you
	10:30pm Enflod: Jonathan, where did you go to high school?
	10:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ' The History we are taught was incapable of getting us to where we are. '
	10:32pm evancuts: I read Sterling Hayden's memoir. He hated acting but did it just to pay for his sailing.
	10:32pm Carmichael: Purity of essence
	10:32pm Enflod: Sterling Hayden—born in Montclair, NJ.
	10:32pm SegFish: Yes! My brother is only 2yrs youger than me and we went to the same schools. I read Fahrenheit 451, 1984, Animal Farm and Brave New World as required reading, and yet he never read any of them
	10:32pm thesecoronalives: I've always felt same about Tom Snyder; seems like such an empty-head, but then so many people I respect seemed to enjoy talking to him (thinking of his John Lennon interview(s))
	🎙 10:33pm Ike: I've also gotta thank my parents for dragging me to museums when I was a kid. And also taking me to weird art flicks when I was a teen, like The Double Life of Veronique (no, despite the title, that's not a porno) and the incredibly creepy original version of The Vanishing.
	10:34pm thesecoronalives: <-- ..I think Snyder was maybe just earnest in his empty-headed-ness..? : - D
	10:34pm Enflod: Hayden was drunk and stoned the entire time he was on camera for Long Goodbye. He hadn't read the script; all of his scenes were ad-libbed.
	10:35pm evancuts: ↳ Enflod @10:32 Wikipedia says Upper Montclair. I've lived in Upper Monclair for twenty years and there's no hospital here. Unless he was born at home -- which is totally possible. I'm going to look into this. Thx for the idea!
	10:35pm Billybob: I was in high school in the early 70s, but in my years taking American history, we never seemed to get past WWII. Maybe there's just too much American history to get through it all. And 50 years later, there's even more.
	10:40pm Enflod: Letterman idolized Tom Snyder
	10:43pm Chris Crisco: Blood Sweat & Tears You Made Me So Very Happy probably the most pretentious lyrics ever I always say sounds like it was written by Tom Snyder.
	🎙 10:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: Dan Aykroyd did a pretty good Tom Snyder impersonatoin.
	10:48pm Enflod: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:47 👍
	10:48pm Billybob: ↳ Chris Crisco @10:43 I kinda liked it. Never thought much about the lyrics. I see Berry Gordy and Brenda Holloway wrote it and Holloway was the first to record it
	10:54pm Carmichael: Huh? Eh? Know what I?
	10:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'History' is written by the winners. I don't think we can ever stop learning about the breadths, the depths & the details of how true this is. The USA was founded upon Manifest Destiny - part of the Colonialism that took the entire Western Hemisphere from First Nations Peoples. It's wealth was established by Slavery. Our coasts were joined by a railroad built on the exploited labor of Asian immigrants... The Founding Fathers were rich white male landowning slaverapers - who didn't want to pay tax. Out Police were established to enforce segregation of the classes & the races ...& that was just the USA getting started. No - this is not the focus of our Education.
	10:57pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:56 if you have an hour, i can expand on that....
	10:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:56 ...all that Howard Zinn & Noam Chomsky type stuff - 'A Peoples' History of the USA'...
	10:58pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:56 Wow, you really hate this country, don't you? 😆
	10:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @10:58 Does this country love you ?
	11:02pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:58 i don't care for chomsky's non-linguistic work, but zinn is alright (that's me as a historian)
	🎙 11:04pm Ike: We can love the country despite all the flaws of its history -- love it for what it can aspire to, for its amazing potential. But you have to acknowledge all that ugly history too, otherwise it's all for nothing.
	11:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @10:58 'Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.' - Einstein It seems to have Nationalism - you have to have some powerful control of the Myths. The USA is large & complicated enuff - it's obviously reductive & false to make it a binary of Love it or Hate it. A lie - obvsly a useful one.
	11:04pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Kiss My Dust" by "Turner Williams Jr." davey williams is was also from montgomery, al, also a great guitarist....
	11:06pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Billybob @10:48 "You've always shown me that loving you is where it's at" said to their significant other by no one ever. I was surprised that David Clayton Thomas didn't write it. I actually like everything else on that BS&T album.
	11:06pm northguineahills: ↳ Ike @11:04 i like the us, doesn't mean i agree w/ the government's decision, current or historical. but i could say the same about any nation (to one degree or another)
	11:06pm Billybob: I'm sure any one of a number of Communist, Islamic or third world nations would love you. Whatever faults our country has, you can't deny the greatness of Western ideology---democracy, women's rights, freedom of speech, freedom of religion---this is all Western and American stuff.
	11:07pm Carmichael: Is Spinning Wheel on that album?
	🎙 11:07pm Jherweg: I don’t hate America , I love it , hence the dissent and the fight American injustice !
	11:08pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @11:06 i mean, i'm a huge supporter of america in sports, no matter the sport, and have a usa footie jersey to boot...
	11:08pm Carmichael: Women’s rights? Like abortion? Religious freedom, like “one nation under”God”?
	11:08pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Carmichael @11:07 It is. And that was written by David Clayton Thomas.
	11:09pm northguineahills: it's the people i love, not the government.
	11:10pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:04 I dunno...everything you posted points to a singular hatred of it.
	11:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The USA is the prime offender for Craptialist exploitation of Human Beings & Natural Resources - & for Wealth Inequity on the planet - the prime Polluter - the prime Militant Imperialist Bully. The prime creator & seller of Weaponry. Do you love these things ? Are they manifestations of this Nation's love ?
	11:12pm Billybob: ↳ Carmichael @11:08 I just hope you don't support the Palestinians in the current war...a people with no women's rights, no religious freedom.
	11:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:10 See your reaction to a plain statement of Factual History of the USA.
	11:13pm chresti: They're all on the take
	🎙 11:16pm Ike: ↳ Billybob @11:12 Hoo boy, do we really need to start in on the Middle East? Sigh.
	11:16pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 I dunno, sure seems like a lotta people want to come to this horrible, hateful, imperialist country.
	11:17pm Carmichael: The Palestinian people are the victims of war. Don’t confuse them with Hamas, the enemy. They’re getting steamrolled. Their religious beliefs are their beliefs. Don’t criticize what you can’t understand, a guy once sang. America is a laughingstock in many parts of the civilized world recently, and for good reason.
	11:17pm StringOFperils: The residents of the Gaza strip are being exterminated like rats. whatever can be said about either 'side', THAT fact is pretty much being broadcast as official policy. If I were there, or anywhere like it, I'd beg to move to the USA, or pretty much anywhere that wasn't the end of the world.
	11:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:12 So their genocide is something we should get behind. In fact - 'we' - meaning the USA - are behind it to the tune of Billions of tax dollars & unending quantities of weapons of mass destruction. 'Israel' is occupied Palestine - unilaterally established by the British after the War. Netanyahu is a RightWing militant criminal - already deeply enmeshed in AntiDemocratic scandal & fraud before Oct. 6th - & he has to perpetrate this horrific mass slaughter to sustain his support from the Far Right.
	🎙 11:19pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Commie Heros" by "Sterling Hayden" Loving the Stirling, recently re-watched Strangelove
	🎙 11:19pm Jherweg: The contradiction of idolizing commie dictators and wanting to stay at the Plaza aren’t lost on me
	11:20pm Billybob: There was a ceasefire prior to 10/7. Who broke it?
	11:23pm Carmichael: Hamas, not Palestine. Again, your patriotic zeal has you taking sides in a war on the other side of the globe. You’re yelling at headlines and bumper stickers.
	11:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:20 Again : Modern PostWar 'Israel' is occupied Palestine. The conflict has always been asymmetrical & unjust. If you were Palestinian - you'd be just as outraged about the apartheid & inequity.
	11:24pm StringOFperils: ↳ Billybob @11:20 If the Unites States were occupied by an infinitely mightier military forced, brimming with conviction that their mission was sanctioned by a mythological being, and you decided to fight back, would you be evil itself?
	11:25pm Billybob: ↳ Carmichael @11:23 And you? I think we all got involved on that horrible day in October. I saw the footage. As far as Hamas, play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The idea of a ceasefire is ridiculous.
	11:26pm Billybob: ↳ StringOFperils @11:24 Gaza hadn't been occupied since 2005, except by Hamas
	11:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bernie Sanders noted - this is not the Israel of Golda Meir of 20 or 30 years ago. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Shumer - the highest ranking Jewish person in the USA - stated Israel has lost its way.
	11:27pm Carmichael: I have my hands full fending off unthinking knee jerk patriots.
	11:29pm Stevel: Doctors Without Borders is an effective operation. I give them money.
	11:30pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Billybob @10:35 October 7th. did more to make people sympathetic to Israel than ever before, and look what happened. From this remove it's a hopeless mess with no end insight.
	11:30pm StringOFperils: This is why it's a zero-sum game. Now one will be left there but Israel, and Israel will be a pariah-state as far into the future as I can see. But business will be booming. Jared Kushner's already making noise about lining up investors to turn it into a resort. Built on skulls.
	11:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:25 You reckon Israeli Intelligence is so weak & poor - they can't tell Hamas from all of Palestine ? From hospitals, women & children, maternity wards being bombed ? From the entire Nation & People either being decimated or forced into relocation (to not established place) ?
	11:31pm Glistener MW: I loved that Fred&Luna track! Thanks, JH!
	11:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:30 no* established place...
	11:32pm Frank Talk About Humans: Ah man, politics on a holiday???
	11:32pm Sensisio: Just said Hey to Jane Goodall, very cool! at EWR she'll be in town a few! Good show
	11:33pm Frank Talk About Humans: Like it or not, we are getting Trump again
	11:33pm StringOFperils: ↳ Frank Talk About Humans @11:32 Easter holiday. My God why have you forsaken me? And all that.
	11:33pm Franco Twinkie: Fights were breaking out all over the world before dessert was served tonight.
	11:33pm Carmichael: Franco, how was The Kid?
	11:33pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:30 Hamas is mingled with the Gazan people. That's their doing.
	11:34pm spodiodi: greetings, Jonathan and all
	11:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & it's the 'Holy Land' of three major religions that throws the whole world into conflict over who gets the lease.
	11:35pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:06 Well no one other than maybe Tom Snyder anyway.
	11:35pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Carmichael @11:33 Fantastic. We continued the conversation we're been having for more that fifty years without missing a beat.
	11:35pm Carmichael: Nice critical analysis, billybob. Your response is, “It’s hard to tell the difference”?
	11:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:33 & the RightWing fascists & Occupiers are mingled with the Israeli people. & the CIA conspirators in the Middle East justify killing people in the World Trade Centers. Is that right ?
	🎙 11:36pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:35 Sounds great Franco! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	11:37pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Carmichael @11:35 How do you tell the difference? They don't exactly wear team jerseys.
	11:39pm Enflod: Why is it that, for a few weeks now, when the next show starts at midnight, the wrong show is always listed?
	11:40pm Chris Crisco: Let's keep in mind that Hamas is not just Palestinian resistance but Islamic resistance as well. As such they are at war with not just occupiers (if you want to use that loaded term) but infidels as well. That is to say pretty much the entire world. Jews of course being cursed on both scores. Anyone who wants Hamas to gain control of Israel's nukes needs to have their head examined. That said Bibi is rotten to the core as well and needs to go.
	11:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:37 Israeli Intelligence is known worldwide for its effectiveness & power. Five figures of people dead - half women & children - everyone displaced ...all Hamas. Right ? Its genocide - they lie about it - & Bibi is doing it to deflect from his other crimes & to keep support from the Right in Israel.
	🎙 11:41pm Aitch: ↳ Enflod @11:39 Interference by foreign operatives
	11:41pm spodiodi: ↳ Aitch @11:41 LOLOL
	11:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'Israel' being occupied Palestine in the first place.
	11:41pm spodiodi: oops, sorry, the caps were an accident
	11:42pm StringOFperils: Bibi's pretty up-front about it I'd say. His 'realpolitik' is like Kissinger's. The numbers add up to everyone has to die.
	11:42pm Carmichael: &Franco, I don’t because I don’t take sides. I feel for the innocent victims. Unfortunately, some people think it’s a just and righteous killing, and jump in refereeing to everyone else.
	11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: One is not a fan of either Imperialism or Terrorism. But one came first. One is asymmetrically greater by far. One the USA has always supported with vast tax expenditure & great weaponry. & the other not so much.
	11:44pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:41 So...get rid of the Israelis? Is that what you want to happen? 'Cuz you know that's what would happen
	11:44pm Frank Talk About Humans: The station has really gone downhill since COVID. There were never politics on a Sunday evening, and subsequent heated exchanges in the chat before.
	11:44pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:41 Everyone likes throwing that loaded term around. No doubt there is some truth in it but if you are living on land stolen from Native Americans or here in New Zealand from Maoris aren't we occupiers as well?
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:44 Yes - we ARE.
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:45 ...it's called Colonialism. That the thing exactly.
	11:46pm spodiodi: we are pigs
	11:46pm StringOFperils: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:44 When they come for you and yours, will you be as complacent about it?
	11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:44 The difference being the Jewish people do have a history in the region. As do the Palestinians.
	11:49pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:45 Ok so then unless we are prepared to turn over whatever property we own to those who was stolen from then it is hypocritical to single out Israel don't you think.
	11:49pm Franco Twinkie: The United States will continue supporting Israel until the end of time. It guarantees we have a powerful allie in a part of the world where everyone hates us. A million dead Palestinians, oh well.
	11:49pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:49 Exactly.
	11:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:49 Conversely - the Israeli argument would be - you got to commit genocide & seize your Land - we have the same Right in the Present. Nice argument.
	11:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:49 & ...that's who the USA is.
	11:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:49 Also ...Oil.
	11:51pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:47 It cannot be denied that Zionist terrorism played a significant role in the formation of Israel and Palestinians were displaced as a result.
	11:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:51 - which was my point to begin with.
	11:52pm javakid: ↳ Song: "The Excuse of Fiction" by "C. Diab" really like this. channels vini reilly
	11:52pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:50 The IDF does not recognize nice as concept for winning.
	🎙 11:53pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Jonathan. The human condition remains, as always, blurred.
	11:53pm Enflod: Love Bronson Pinchot in After Hours
	11:53pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:50 The present being 75 years ago as opposed to 250? Where exactly do you draw the line?
	11:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:51 If the Oil weren't in the region - the USA would not have screwed around there. Oil - that thing that's poisoning the World. & - that's who the USA is.
	11:54pm northguineahills: danks, jonathan!
	11:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:53 In that sentence the Present means Today & Tomorrow in Gaza.
	11:55pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 there are much worst offenders.
	11:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ JH ~
	11:55pm spodiodi: thanks, Jonathan
	11:56pm StringOFperils: Thomas Hobbes described 'the war of all against all." And 'the social contract' was a proposal that any parties involved must forfeit some of their insistent desires in order to replace ultimate chaos, which would be the alternative. Reluctant consensus is the only thing standing between very difficult stasis and 'safety' and the world of The Walking Dead.
	11:56pm Franco Twinkie: Happy Eater everyone...whatever that's worth.
	11:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ northguineahills @11:55 No. We're the Worst for all those things.
	🎙 11:56pm Scott_Oz: Thanks JH! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	11:56pm chresti: Thanks Jonathan!
	11:57pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:54 Sharon withdrew from Gaza in 2005. Palestinians reciprocated by electing the known terrorist group whose claim to fame is introducing the suicide bomber to the world. Hamas then proceeded to spend all its resources on weapons and tunnels.
	🎙 11:57pm Ïke: Cheers!
	11:57pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:56 i beg to disagree. we just have resources to do on a large scale. but there are others that do worse w/ less.
	11:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ northguineahills @11:57 We are the Largest. If not the most people.
	11:59pm StringOFperils: Thank you, JH! Work for love everybody.
	11:59pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:58 largest gdp, third largest pop.
	11:59pm spodiodi: ↳ StringOFperils @11:59 hear, hear
	12:09am Corey: Glad kendraplex is dropping sick music right now

An underground journey through the history of psychedelic rock, modern music, shimmering noise, free jazz, punk, funk, children's records played at the wrong speed, tape cut-up, static, the composition of decomposition, and subversive spoken word.

Listener comments!

	🎙 10:03pm Ïke: I also shouldn’t be taken seriously because I’m so ridiculous. …ridiculously handsome that is!
	🎙 10:06pm Aitch: Blurred

	10:08pm Carmichael: Heya Jonathan and noise enthusiasts
	10:09pm 🖤 d a r c y 🌈: Who was that guy talking about ridiculous
	10:13pm Chris Crisco: Kia Ora Peace & Love from New Zealand! Where men are men and sheep are sheep!
	10:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Not Knowing What You're Doing" by "Sterling Hayden" wfmu.org...
	10:15pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Scott_Oz @10:01 Our little corner of the world is present & accounted for eh!
	🎙 10:16pm Jherweg: P wits is music from your own backyard Chris c
	10:18pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Jherweg @10:16 Cool! Not familiar with them but we've only been here 2.5 years.
	🎙 10:18pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Chris Crisco @10:15 Indeed Chris! I'm a bit dozy the Monday public holiday though mate. Massive weekend of muckups! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	10:19pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Scott_Oz @10:18 April Fool's day too! Do they have that down here?
	🎙 10:22pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Chris Crisco @10:19 Yeah mate, but I don't go for it myself.
	10:29pm Bob in DC: I dg that 1/2 and 1/2. Thank you
	10:30pm Enflod: Jonathan, where did you go to high school?
	10:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ' The History we are taught was incapable of getting us to where we are. '
	10:32pm evancuts: I read Sterling Hayden's memoir. He hated acting but did it just to pay for his sailing.
	10:32pm Carmichael: Purity of essence
	10:32pm Enflod: Sterling Hayden—born in Montclair, NJ.
	10:32pm SegFish: Yes! My brother is only 2yrs youger than me and we went to the same schools. I read Fahrenheit 451, 1984, Animal Farm and Brave New World as required reading, and yet he never read any of them
	10:32pm thesecoronalives: I've always felt same about Tom Snyder; seems like such an empty-head, but then so many people I respect seemed to enjoy talking to him (thinking of his John Lennon interview(s))
	🎙 10:33pm Ike: I've also gotta thank my parents for dragging me to museums when I was a kid. And also taking me to weird art flicks when I was a teen, like The Double Life of Veronique (no, despite the title, that's not a porno) and the incredibly creepy original version of The Vanishing.
	10:34pm thesecoronalives: <-- ..I think Snyder was maybe just earnest in his empty-headed-ness..? : - D
	10:34pm Enflod: Hayden was drunk and stoned the entire time he was on camera for Long Goodbye. He hadn't read the script; all of his scenes were ad-libbed.
	10:35pm evancuts: ↳ Enflod @10:32 Wikipedia says Upper Montclair. I've lived in Upper Monclair for twenty years and there's no hospital here. Unless he was born at home -- which is totally possible. I'm going to look into this. Thx for the idea!
	10:35pm Billybob: I was in high school in the early 70s, but in my years taking American history, we never seemed to get past WWII. Maybe there's just too much American history to get through it all. And 50 years later, there's even more.
	10:40pm Enflod: Letterman idolized Tom Snyder
	10:43pm Chris Crisco: Blood Sweat & Tears You Made Me So Very Happy probably the most pretentious lyrics ever I always say sounds like it was written by Tom Snyder.
	🎙 10:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: Dan Aykroyd did a pretty good Tom Snyder impersonatoin.
	10:48pm Enflod: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:47 👍
	10:48pm Billybob: ↳ Chris Crisco @10:43 I kinda liked it. Never thought much about the lyrics. I see Berry Gordy and Brenda Holloway wrote it and Holloway was the first to record it
	10:54pm Carmichael: Huh? Eh? Know what I?
	10:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'History' is written by the winners. I don't think we can ever stop learning about the breadths, the depths & the details of how true this is. The USA was founded upon Manifest Destiny - part of the Colonialism that took the entire Western Hemisphere from First Nations Peoples. It's wealth was established by Slavery. Our coasts were joined by a railroad built on the exploited labor of Asian immigrants... The Founding Fathers were rich white male landowning slaverapers - who didn't want to pay tax. Out Police were established to enforce segregation of the classes & the races ...& that was just the USA getting started. No - this is not the focus of our Education.
	10:57pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:56 if you have an hour, i can expand on that....
	10:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:56 ...all that Howard Zinn & Noam Chomsky type stuff - 'A Peoples' History of the USA'...
	10:58pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:56 Wow, you really hate this country, don't you? 😆
	10:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @10:58 Does this country love you ?
	11:02pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:58 i don't care for chomsky's non-linguistic work, but zinn is alright (that's me as a historian)
	🎙 11:04pm Ike: We can love the country despite all the flaws of its history -- love it for what it can aspire to, for its amazing potential. But you have to acknowledge all that ugly history too, otherwise it's all for nothing.
	11:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @10:58 'Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.' - Einstein It seems to have Nationalism - you have to have some powerful control of the Myths. The USA is large & complicated enuff - it's obviously reductive & false to make it a binary of Love it or Hate it. A lie - obvsly a useful one.
	11:04pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Kiss My Dust" by "Turner Williams Jr." davey williams is was also from montgomery, al, also a great guitarist....
	11:06pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Billybob @10:48 "You've always shown me that loving you is where it's at" said to their significant other by no one ever. I was surprised that David Clayton Thomas didn't write it. I actually like everything else on that BS&T album.
	11:06pm northguineahills: ↳ Ike @11:04 i like the us, doesn't mean i agree w/ the government's decision, current or historical. but i could say the same about any nation (to one degree or another)
	11:06pm Billybob: I'm sure any one of a number of Communist, Islamic or third world nations would love you. Whatever faults our country has, you can't deny the greatness of Western ideology---democracy, women's rights, freedom of speech, freedom of religion---this is all Western and American stuff.
	11:07pm Carmichael: Is Spinning Wheel on that album?
	🎙 11:07pm Jherweg: I don’t hate America , I love it , hence the dissent and the fight American injustice !
	11:08pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @11:06 i mean, i'm a huge supporter of america in sports, no matter the sport, and have a usa footie jersey to boot...
	11:08pm Carmichael: Women’s rights? Like abortion? Religious freedom, like “one nation under”God”?
	11:08pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Carmichael @11:07 It is. And that was written by David Clayton Thomas.
	11:09pm northguineahills: it's the people i love, not the government.
	11:10pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:04 I dunno...everything you posted points to a singular hatred of it.
	11:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The USA is the prime offender for Craptialist exploitation of Human Beings & Natural Resources - & for Wealth Inequity on the planet - the prime Polluter - the prime Militant Imperialist Bully. The prime creator & seller of Weaponry. Do you love these things ? Are they manifestations of this Nation's love ?
	11:12pm Billybob: ↳ Carmichael @11:08 I just hope you don't support the Palestinians in the current war...a people with no women's rights, no religious freedom.
	11:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:10 See your reaction to a plain statement of Factual History of the USA.
	11:13pm chresti: They're all on the take
	🎙 11:16pm Ike: ↳ Billybob @11:12 Hoo boy, do we really need to start in on the Middle East? Sigh.
	11:16pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 I dunno, sure seems like a lotta people want to come to this horrible, hateful, imperialist country.
	11:17pm Carmichael: The Palestinian people are the victims of war. Don’t confuse them with Hamas, the enemy. They’re getting steamrolled. Their religious beliefs are their beliefs. Don’t criticize what you can’t understand, a guy once sang. America is a laughingstock in many parts of the civilized world recently, and for good reason.
	11:17pm StringOFperils: The residents of the Gaza strip are being exterminated like rats. whatever can be said about either 'side', THAT fact is pretty much being broadcast as official policy. If I were there, or anywhere like it, I'd beg to move to the USA, or pretty much anywhere that wasn't the end of the world.
	11:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:12 So their genocide is something we should get behind. In fact - 'we' - meaning the USA - are behind it to the tune of Billions of tax dollars & unending quantities of weapons of mass destruction. 'Israel' is occupied Palestine - unilaterally established by the British after the War. Netanyahu is a RightWing militant criminal - already deeply enmeshed in AntiDemocratic scandal & fraud before Oct. 6th - & he has to perpetrate this horrific mass slaughter to sustain his support from the Far Right.
	🎙 11:19pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Commie Heros" by "Sterling Hayden" Loving the Stirling, recently re-watched Strangelove
	🎙 11:19pm Jherweg: The contradiction of idolizing commie dictators and wanting to stay at the Plaza aren’t lost on me
	11:20pm Billybob: There was a ceasefire prior to 10/7. Who broke it?
	11:23pm Carmichael: Hamas, not Palestine. Again, your patriotic zeal has you taking sides in a war on the other side of the globe. You’re yelling at headlines and bumper stickers.
	11:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:20 Again : Modern PostWar 'Israel' is occupied Palestine. The conflict has always been asymmetrical & unjust. If you were Palestinian - you'd be just as outraged about the apartheid & inequity.
	11:24pm StringOFperils: ↳ Billybob @11:20 If the Unites States were occupied by an infinitely mightier military forced, brimming with conviction that their mission was sanctioned by a mythological being, and you decided to fight back, would you be evil itself?
	11:25pm Billybob: ↳ Carmichael @11:23 And you? I think we all got involved on that horrible day in October. I saw the footage. As far as Hamas, play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The idea of a ceasefire is ridiculous.
	11:26pm Billybob: ↳ StringOFperils @11:24 Gaza hadn't been occupied since 2005, except by Hamas
	11:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bernie Sanders noted - this is not the Israel of Golda Meir of 20 or 30 years ago. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Shumer - the highest ranking Jewish person in the USA - stated Israel has lost its way.
	11:27pm Carmichael: I have my hands full fending off unthinking knee jerk patriots.
	11:29pm Stevel: Doctors Without Borders is an effective operation. I give them money.
	11:30pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Billybob @10:35 October 7th. did more to make people sympathetic to Israel than ever before, and look what happened. From this remove it's a hopeless mess with no end insight.
	11:30pm StringOFperils: This is why it's a zero-sum game. Now one will be left there but Israel, and Israel will be a pariah-state as far into the future as I can see. But business will be booming. Jared Kushner's already making noise about lining up investors to turn it into a resort. Built on skulls.
	11:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:25 You reckon Israeli Intelligence is so weak & poor - they can't tell Hamas from all of Palestine ? From hospitals, women & children, maternity wards being bombed ? From the entire Nation & People either being decimated or forced into relocation (to not established place) ?
	11:31pm Glistener MW: I loved that Fred&Luna track! Thanks, JH!
	11:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:30 no* established place...
	11:32pm Frank Talk About Humans: Ah man, politics on a holiday???
	11:32pm Sensisio: Just said Hey to Jane Goodall, very cool! at EWR she'll be in town a few! Good show
	11:33pm Frank Talk About Humans: Like it or not, we are getting Trump again
	11:33pm StringOFperils: ↳ Frank Talk About Humans @11:32 Easter holiday. My God why have you forsaken me? And all that.
	11:33pm Franco Twinkie: Fights were breaking out all over the world before dessert was served tonight.
	11:33pm Carmichael: Franco, how was The Kid?
	11:33pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:30 Hamas is mingled with the Gazan people. That's their doing.
	11:34pm spodiodi: greetings, Jonathan and all
	11:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & it's the 'Holy Land' of three major religions that throws the whole world into conflict over who gets the lease.
	11:35pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:06 Well no one other than maybe Tom Snyder anyway.
	11:35pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Carmichael @11:33 Fantastic. We continued the conversation we're been having for more that fifty years without missing a beat.
	11:35pm Carmichael: Nice critical analysis, billybob. Your response is, “It’s hard to tell the difference”?
	11:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Billybob @11:33 & the RightWing fascists & Occupiers are mingled with the Israeli people. & the CIA conspirators in the Middle East justify killing people in the World Trade Centers. Is that right ?
	🎙 11:36pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:35 Sounds great Franco! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	11:37pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Carmichael @11:35 How do you tell the difference? They don't exactly wear team jerseys.
	11:39pm Enflod: Why is it that, for a few weeks now, when the next show starts at midnight, the wrong show is always listed?
	11:40pm Chris Crisco: Let's keep in mind that Hamas is not just Palestinian resistance but Islamic resistance as well. As such they are at war with not just occupiers (if you want to use that loaded term) but infidels as well. That is to say pretty much the entire world. Jews of course being cursed on both scores. Anyone who wants Hamas to gain control of Israel's nukes needs to have their head examined. That said Bibi is rotten to the core as well and needs to go.
	11:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:37 Israeli Intelligence is known worldwide for its effectiveness & power. Five figures of people dead - half women & children - everyone displaced ...all Hamas. Right ? Its genocide - they lie about it - & Bibi is doing it to deflect from his other crimes & to keep support from the Right in Israel.
	🎙 11:41pm Aitch: ↳ Enflod @11:39 Interference by foreign operatives
	11:41pm spodiodi: ↳ Aitch @11:41 LOLOL
	11:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'Israel' being occupied Palestine in the first place.
	11:41pm spodiodi: oops, sorry, the caps were an accident
	11:42pm StringOFperils: Bibi's pretty up-front about it I'd say. His 'realpolitik' is like Kissinger's. The numbers add up to everyone has to die.
	11:42pm Carmichael: &Franco, I don’t because I don’t take sides. I feel for the innocent victims. Unfortunately, some people think it’s a just and righteous killing, and jump in refereeing to everyone else.
	11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: One is not a fan of either Imperialism or Terrorism. But one came first. One is asymmetrically greater by far. One the USA has always supported with vast tax expenditure & great weaponry. & the other not so much.
	11:44pm Billybob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:41 So...get rid of the Israelis? Is that what you want to happen? 'Cuz you know that's what would happen
	11:44pm Frank Talk About Humans: The station has really gone downhill since COVID. There were never politics on a Sunday evening, and subsequent heated exchanges in the chat before.
	11:44pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:41 Everyone likes throwing that loaded term around. No doubt there is some truth in it but if you are living on land stolen from Native Americans or here in New Zealand from Maoris aren't we occupiers as well?
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:44 Yes - we ARE.
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:45 ...it's called Colonialism. That the thing exactly.
	11:46pm spodiodi: we are pigs
	11:46pm StringOFperils: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:44 When they come for you and yours, will you be as complacent about it?
	11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:44 The difference being the Jewish people do have a history in the region. As do the Palestinians.
	11:49pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:45 Ok so then unless we are prepared to turn over whatever property we own to those who was stolen from then it is hypocritical to single out Israel don't you think.
	11:49pm Franco Twinkie: The United States will continue supporting Israel until the end of time. It guarantees we have a powerful allie in a part of the world where everyone hates us. A million dead Palestinians, oh well.
	11:49pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:49 Exactly.
	11:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:49 Conversely - the Israeli argument would be - you got to commit genocide & seize your Land - we have the same Right in the Present. Nice argument.
	11:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:49 & ...that's who the USA is.
	11:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:49 Also ...Oil.
	11:51pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:47 It cannot be denied that Zionist terrorism played a significant role in the formation of Israel and Palestinians were displaced as a result.
	11:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:51 - which was my point to begin with.
	11:52pm javakid: ↳ Song: "The Excuse of Fiction" by "C. Diab" really like this. channels vini reilly
	11:52pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:50 The IDF does not recognize nice as concept for winning.
	🎙 11:53pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Jonathan. The human condition remains, as always, blurred.
	11:53pm Enflod: Love Bronson Pinchot in After Hours
	11:53pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:50 The present being 75 years ago as opposed to 250? Where exactly do you draw the line?
	11:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:51 If the Oil weren't in the region - the USA would not have screwed around there. Oil - that thing that's poisoning the World. & - that's who the USA is.
	11:54pm northguineahills: danks, jonathan!
	11:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Crisco @11:53 In that sentence the Present means Today & Tomorrow in Gaza.
	11:55pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 there are much worst offenders.
	11:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ JH ~
	11:55pm spodiodi: thanks, Jonathan
	11:56pm StringOFperils: Thomas Hobbes described 'the war of all against all." And 'the social contract' was a proposal that any parties involved must forfeit some of their insistent desires in order to replace ultimate chaos, which would be the alternative. Reluctant consensus is the only thing standing between very difficult stasis and 'safety' and the world of The Walking Dead.
	11:56pm Franco Twinkie: Happy Eater everyone...whatever that's worth.
	11:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ northguineahills @11:55 No. We're the Worst for all those things.
	🎙 11:56pm Scott_Oz: Thanks JH! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	11:56pm chresti: Thanks Jonathan!
	11:57pm Chris Crisco: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:54 Sharon withdrew from Gaza in 2005. Palestinians reciprocated by electing the known terrorist group whose claim to fame is introducing the suicide bomber to the world. Hamas then proceeded to spend all its resources on weapons and tunnels.
	🎙 11:57pm Ïke: Cheers!
	11:57pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:56 i beg to disagree. we just have resources to do on a large scale. but there are others that do worse w/ less.
	11:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ northguineahills @11:57 We are the Largest. If not the most people.
	11:59pm StringOFperils: Thank you, JH! Work for love everybody.
	11:59pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:58 largest gdp, third largest pop.
	11:59pm spodiodi: ↳ StringOFperils @11:59 hear, hear
	12:09am Corey: Glad kendraplex is dropping sick music right now
