Why America’s revolution won’t be televised — Pepe Escobar

Summary:
As usual, Pepe Escobar has an interesting take, but I don't think he is finely attuned to the American situation. This is quite different from the Vietnam antiwar protests and Occupy, for example. Moreover, this is not only an American phenomenon. There are mass demonstrations in other countries, too. If I had to sum it up succinctly, it would be, "enough is enough." And I don't think this is solely about racism, either. It's a visceral reaction that carries many labels, but none of them capture the essence of it.
