I remember when Tariq Ali was a leading voice on the left. He’s been inertial for a while; that can happen when you get guru status. But something happened on the road to Damascus.

Now he posts videos of Eva Bartlett & allows comments like this to stand on his wall unchallenged: “Assad has been vilified purely because he won’t play along with the Rothschild banksters?”

Life moves on. People change. The lesson is: no gurus, no masters, no groveling. Find teachers, learn to listen carefully, study & don’t be glib, keep your dignity & most of all learn to think for yourself.
