Michael Parenti died today. I don't think I can credit anyone else with teaching me as much about Marxism as he did. If you're mad at the current state of things you have an *obligation* to cut through all the lies and learn how the world actually works, and his books and lectures will teach you.

i just looked it up & the US was still doing Gladio shit against Italy well into the 80’s.

These books are pretty good but Perlstein desperately avoids the glaringly obvious fact that every us president was constantly doing things just as insane as Nixon, it's just that Nixon was stupid enough to get caught.
