Wonder why a guy came in sick to the anti-labor publication that publishes vile bullshit like a Kevin Williamson piece shitting on the poor people he evicted from a home he inherited: http://www.nationalreview.com/article/447292/underclass-character-eviction-court-native-born-americans-entrepreneurial-immigrants http://www.nationalreview.com/article/447292/underclass-char... What a self-serving narrative that an employee must have come in when terminally ill because he "didn't want to die alone" instead of that he was falling in line with the calvinist dogshit work culture this publication helped to sustain. Fuck the national review, I hope Alex finally got some peace.

  If you think politics is not the realm of intellectual curiosity and that there's nothing political about this article you're a fucking sickening human being.

    While yes, there probably is a political leaning to most things one reads... There is a time and place to promote such a discussion, especially when dealing with obituaries.. Perhaps this isn't either the time nor the place.
