The subaltern speaks

Well, this is my (Mr. Trend's) first post, just to clear things up right away. I thank erik in his ongoing quest as an "organic intellectual" to help sublaterns speak. As we all know, the white, Protestant, male voice is criminially silenced in the United States these days, and, by joining forces with Erik, we will amend this situation. I also hope to combat the west-coast bias that dominates the world while adding to the "liberal" bias of the media and the blogosphere (take that, Ann Coulter - run and attack more 9/11 widows in defense of yourself).

So if you look to this page in the future and see bizarre personalities taking over, it's simply me - Erik hasn't developed some form of multiple personality disorder (yet).
