This blog is dedicated to taking global politics away from the military analysts and corporate boardrooms and back to the people. We need to wake up. Even though we live in a global community all politics is local. The fashion you wear, the films you watch, the music you dance to, and the drugs you smoke or snort, send ripples across the world. Intellectual property laws are not only trying to silence artists like Girltalk but also making it harder for Aids medication to reach people dying because they live on 2 dollars a day. Clothing donations to goodwill are at the same time helping poverty stricken Americans and retarding industrialization in places like Africa and South East Asia. Living in a free society means taking the responsibility to learn and seek out information. We hope this blog can be a light in a world that appears to get darker and darker due to ignorance. The name of this blog comes from a Nazi program to silence creativity and free thought because Hitler knew authoritarian governments cannot survive under the political weight of art and culture. What was degenerate was anything that forced people to view the world for themselves and reject the Nazis' view of the world. Our international political system is one sided working for the interests of industrialists, investment bankers, and military leaders. This blog is to help restore balance to this system. To offer a point of view to current events in the interests of freedom of thought and peaceful coexistence. This is a complex world that takes more than a .22 caliber News Media to explain magnum caliber issues. This is the analysis of the degenerate. We are pissed off at the failings of our world leaders and that makes us very, very dangerous people.
