I read that while not logged in and "from the store" was a cyan double-underlined clickable link and I read it as "from the stars", and I was all like 'right on', until I read on.

Yes, it makes my head spin. It's nice they've settled that lately, but I was there for the one-way-then-the-other part. There was a time when neither party existed. The Republicans, for one, were close to schismism not too far back.

Red states and blue states refer to those states of the United States whose residents predominantly vote for the Republican Party (red) or Democratic Party (blue) presidential candidates.
[exactly the paragraphs I had in mind when I typed that.]

Certainly not socialist. Social anarchist is as opposed to individualist or 'lifestyle' anarchist. Then are parsed out in exhastive detail
here. Think Occupy vs Black Block.
Quote:
There's foxes in the hen house
Cows out in the corn
The unions have been busted
Their proud red banners torn
To listen to the radio
You'd think that all was well
But you and me and Cisco know
It's going straight to hell
So come back, Emma Goldman
Rise up, old Joe Hill
The barracades are goin' up
They cannot break our will
Come back to us, Malcolm X
And Martin Luther King
We're marching into Selma
As the bells of freedom ring
[Chorus]
