Decades long activist cluster, Rastafarians for Mondale, is set to disband as of the end of the year. Known for its dogged, often reckless pursuit of its ill-defined sense of justice and magical feel for the absurd the RFM will be missed by many.
In utter disarray after the crushing defeat in the 1984 Presidential elections, the group reemerged stronger claiming a membership of at least 6.
Advocates herein say the demise of the RFM is linked to the constant attempts by the Right to discredit policies and goals expressed since the 70s.
“At this point our political focus will be to try to determine why middle class people vote against their interests,” said one former chief of the organization. “These frightened Americans are blaming liberals for their problems when they should be looking at the corporate feudalism that’s just around the corner. Throw in a little racism, sexism and xenophobia and you’ve got a neighborhood blockhead party shouting tiny, small ball solutions for social enigmas that they fail to understand.”
How the Rastafarians for Mondale will affect the 2016 elections is not clear since it has yet to forward an agenda on the issues.
“One thing’s for certain,” said the above source. “We won’t be voting for Hillary.” – Mickie Marvelous
