Should the Left initiate a boycott of Time Magazine and its advertisers?

For the last two or three years, I have tried to make the point that direct action against the war on democracy should target oligarchs, not their political stooges. I don't give a rat's ass about Mrs. Clinton's role, if any, in this matter. She has made herself irrelevant with her "No we can't" campaign platform; even if she becomes president, she won't be any more relevant. She's taken the oligarchs' money and pledges to them to do nothing that needs to be done that will hurt them. Hers is guaranteed to be another failed neoliberal administration.

The story asserting that the man in the photos is not Bernie Sanders was floated by Time in November and doubts about the story were raised almost immediately. A discussion thread appeared on DU in which your most humble hare contributed a post with additional photos in an effort to debunk Time's assertion that the man in the photo is not Bernie Sanders.

As far as I am concerned, the story has been debunked and the matter is closed. Time reporter Jonathan Capehart has again raised the matter this week. By doing so, he has crossed the line from journalist to political hack. The editors of Time, in publishing his reassertion of a debunked story, are complicit in a political smear.

We should organize a boycott of Time Magazine and its advertisers demanding that the story be retracted and that Mr. Copehart and the editors for running this swift boat smear be disciplined.

It is time for us to let the oligarchs know that we are serious about restoring a people's government in the United States, that corporations are not hut human beings entitled to human rights and that generous campaign contributions are bribes, not free speech. The one percent need a middle class more than we need them. If they can't agree to meekly be regulated and taxed, then we can organize economic production without them. We, the People, are threatened by corporate greed and power and need to be protected from the likes of Legs Dimon and Pretty Boy Lloyd.

The Gilded Age that followed the Civil War ended in the Great Depression. The Gilded Age that followed the Cold War is over as of now.

Power to the People and feel the Bern.
