Which side wins—Democrat or Republican, East or West, elite or bourgeois or proletariat, Herodian or Zealot—may be considered news within the system, but until someone brings into the system resources from outside it, unless someone kicks a hole in the wall of the system so we aren’t trapped within it, there is no real good [...]
