Sometimes when I add a cool link, I want to make it funnier, or more prescient.  Sometimes the weird vibe of a writer straining for edgy legitimacy just stands on its own.  So, Science 2.0 audience, I present to you a sample of a site you may never need to bother with again, OpEdNews - because even its name is in conflict with itself and insecure, kind of like calling a site Belt And Suspenders:

"The two big multinational corporations have found the way to ruin the earth. They care about nothing but their own coffers -- profit, profit and more profit, and step by step they will move us to the brink. Hopefully they will be the first to fall over the cliff. They will have ruined the earth, water, plants, forests, insects, mammals (the chief mammals being the leaders of this absurd system that rules the world) and all that is comprised in the concept of ecosystems. 

"There goes the earth. So what? Their coffers are full. Well, now let them eat their money. 

"The chief monster that sits above the multinational corporations that are the only ones that have any power at all today is of course the monster bank Goldman Sachs. They hold all the strings. They run the entire show of destruction."

That is a featured article on their site. It is also an example of why no one trusts French academia. It doesn't stand up to its own anti-biology dingbats, so it sure won't stand up for science. Instead, we will get rationalizations about how they are 'anti-corporation' and then some Proust references. 

Friends don't let friends write amateur political activism on the Internet. 

Total gibberish.
