Setting differences aside

This like hurricane Katrina have led hipster around the world to set aside their differences and get along. Yeah, this means that I'll go on record to say that even Franz Ferdinand fans and any pitchforkmedia music critics stranded in New Orleans should all get disaster relief assistance.

What I don't understand is why mainstream media sources have sonsistently quoted victims as saying that it has been "every man for himself". Clearly, that hasn't been working. What has worked, is people cooperating. Hmmmm.

What I also haven't liked is the statment that "anarchy" has reigned for storm refugee at the New Orleans Superdome. That is like calling winning the lottery "fortuitous", when it is more precicely "serendipitous". It's hasn't been anarchy in New Orleans; anarchy is something different; hurricane Katrina has merely exposed the disgusting underbelly of a hopelessly corrupt imperialist society that has been exceedingly dependent on a number of things that can vanish quickly.

Yeah, Cat, you did an excellent job. You definitely deserve some fortuitous broadband phone service from an asshole who obviously didn't read your post. Hence the addition of "word verification" on our comments page. Can I get a "Hell yeah!"?
