A short note on the ruling class as revealed by the Epstein files:
open.substack.com/pub/luciddia...

On the Emails Between Jeffrey Epstein and Noam Chomsky I am heartsick. As a young boy, I experienced horrific sexual violence, which I have written about before and which continues to mark me even decades

My friendship with Noam Chomsky goes back decades. But, reading his friendly correspondence with Jeffery Epstein made me shudder. I know that Noam cannot defend himself. But in many ways, the emails speak for themselves. See my note: www.counterpunch.org/2026/02/03/o...

"Limitations to the republic’s transformative social agenda were present as it tolerated sections of the old elite, allowing them to hold their property, and therefore allowing the formation of a stratified class system that benefited sections of these property owners and an emergent middle class."

"Solidarity with Iranians" isn't solidarity unless it demands an end to sanctions against Iran. The aim and impacts of US/Israel military attacks on Iran will not be the welfare of the Iranian people.
