COMPARE COMMUNISM AND CAPITALISM
One has shared stories from RT recently, and believes this is considered offensive from some quarters. The presumption would be that said sharing represents affinity toward communism. FACTually speaking the intention is more nearly as a comparison between communism and capitalism, which use tactics and seem to have hierarchical motivation that are alarmingly similar. In other words, the purported fear of communism isn’t so much that people would jump on the communistic bandwagon but that currently-indoctrinated people on the capitalistic bandwagon would recognize themselves in the communist targets.
GLOBAL REALITY SHOW
Quoted From Martin Luther King, Jr:
“For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver.”
DEFINE LIBERTY
Is it a dictatorship, when transparency to the public is challenged and laws are enacted to benefit the elite while the majority of the public are used to that end?
NATURAL CAPITAL
We need to remember reality, especially on the meaning of capital. Here are a few topics toward that end.
QUESTION DECEPTION
On a MSM Team Red/Blue “show” last night, one heard a “reporter” announce that among “democracies”, the USA was a baby. Not having verified but remembering info from years ago, it seems the USA has the oldest continuous government in the world. This is to the benefit of the USA, if only politicians and bureaucrats could act accordingly.
FRESH VIEW
While monopolies are ignored and price gouging has become a way of life under capitalism, workers are subjected to restraint, scrutiny, and exploitation compatible with hierarchical predatory behavior of big business and corporations. Non-compete agreements are only one example.
ENTITLEMENT vs EARNED BENEFIT
How many workers wonder when their Social Security Earned Benefit for which they pay, turned into a media-defined Social Security Entitlement. Actually the transformation was over a much shorter time frame than was, for example, the transfer of the wealth of the nation from the 100% to the 1%.
DE-GROWTH AND REALITY
Unless we can speak FACTually rather than according to Establishment talking points, reality will allude us.
PEACE AND WAR
One believes the following book by Tolstoy was banned in Russia. Oligarchs (those who steer public opinion for personal promotion) are similar.
IS THE STANDARD THE SICKNESS?
Most of us are informed, largely byway of media, of the standard to be followed. What if the standard is questionable?
TREEHUGGER AND HISTORY
That the phrase treehugger originated byway of followers of Hindu and possibly again byway of followers of Buddhism come as no surprise.
RIGGED NATION
On involvement in Ukraine, US leaders have warned the US public that pain could be felt at home. How is this supportive of the USA and We The People?…..And to what end?–
DEFENSIVE RATIONALIZATION
Bait-and-switch may be a reason some people have labeled as war crimes (remembering that war crime is an oxymoron) Russian targeting of civilian infrastructure in Ukraine that denies to local community members the civil and human right of the dignity of a functional energy grid while accepting a dysfunctional US energy grid by labeling this as free enterprise.
WE’LL HOLD YOUR COAT
A reason some people trust the Green Party is the ability and willingness to discuss differences of opinion on topics crucial to our political system and our foreign affairs.
