REASON


As one who, like the majority of people went along to get along, the ego-busting reality of Climate Change was the catalyst to speak up regardless of consequences.  When fracking came to town in Upstate NY and local bureaucrats and politicians bought and paid for by big-money interests began to run so-called news reports over local news channels that were more nearly sales seminars and said individuals shouted their battle cry of “drill baby drill”, the consequences seemed so dire as to eliminate reticence. read more

A special celebration of our home occurs on April 22; but who doesn’t love their home each day? read more

UTOPIA OR DYSTOPIAN?

An incident of brainwashing is evident in bureaucratic contempt for Utopian ideas.  That to reach perfection is ostensibly impossible and the requirement to do so may be unhealthy, to attempt toward as nearly as possible that which is ideal surely isn’t wrong.  Yet when ideas are introduced that to support a more equitable life for We The People, along with liberty and justice, you will hear a majority of politicians reject these notions.  Yet the personal status of politicians seem to tend to heights of quality of life that are legislatively unavailable to the general public.
In other nations this could be described as dictatorship.

IT’S CALLED INDOCTRINATION BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT IT DOES


America woke up this morning to this important news
FACTually speaking, only most Americans care about somebody hitting somebody over American imperialism

AMNESIA AS PUBLIC POLICY

Corporate-owned-state-run MSM has an easy job in broadcasting news when the public has the focus and memory capacity of a gnat.  A different view can be spewed each day with little to no comment from consumers.   read more

WHEN TECHNOLOGY WORKS

C-Span isn’t coming in this weekend, as it often reacts when there is a heavy cloud cover.  The less technologically-touchy NPR, however, is coming in just fine.  All the technology required is to plug the radio into the wall, if our local grid is still functioning.  Advertising has ignored the FACT that the more complicated the technology, the less dependable it is.  And so do our industry-purchased politicians so ignore.  But the money is nice. read more

AFFECTATION NATION

It’s not like there aren’t alternatives to war and Climate Change.   Denial and obfuscation aren’t working so well.  Let’s try reality. read more

CLIMATE CHANGE OR WAR?

THESE ARE NOT OUR ONLY CHOICES.
We have more serious topics to consider than interests of individual nations and the ideology of each.  The public of the world need to challenge using local communities for the exploitation for the elite.  So far local communities aren’t doing so well, but seem to follow the lead from their tormentors.

IMAGINE LIFESTYLE THAT DOES LITTLE HARM

Some corporate-owned-state-run MSM views are heard to call lifestyle with consideration of inflicting as little harm on the environment and each other is “Pollyanna-ish”.  This is an extraordinarily violent perspective.  Yet we seem sufficiently indoctrinated with hierarchical violence to submit to this mindset.  A thoughtful person simply cannot accept this aggression and violence as being normal.  This view is surely a choice, but a very bad choice. read more

DEFINE AMERICAN INTERESTS


First define American interests.  So far, oligarchs seem to have defined American interests for a silenced American public. read more

INSTABILITY

To use the jargon of “The West”, one refers to masculine and feminine.  This is most emphatically not to imply it is about men and women, it is only colloquial to speak to the audience.  One can as easily refer to yin and yang or cause and effect.  And so, fewer people would be able to relate.  Balance is hopeful and would benefit everyone. read more

BLINKEN ‘SPLAINS RUSSIA…’NUFF SAID…

Revolting is the idea of Blinken ‘splaining the views of Russia; especially since the USA and “Western concerns” have been instrumental in actions within the Ukraine when the USA has described Ukrainian government as the most corrupt in the world.  Equally revolting has been the habit of corporate-owned-state-run MSM talking heads with little understanding of recent history, equate Russia with fascism when Russia was instrumental though brutal in challenging Hitler and Nazis during WWII.  To understand other people is essential to be intellectually honest.  This isn’t about the level of governmental corruption peculiar to any one government; but more about the corruption of oligarchy. read more

THE OTHER RUSSIA….LIKE THE OTHER USA

Patriarchy lives in world oligarchs.  The aggression and violence are endemic with most of these people, to gain supremacy and power. read more

TERRORISTS AND MADMEN

A nation with a military squatting in the Middle East over decades, bombing at their pleasure, suddenly have found moral clarity as it jumps at the chance to position their political opposition as quasi terrorists and madmen.  How soon we forget the inanity after 9/11 when W. attacked not the nation of origin of most of the terrorists, but Iraq and the Saddam Hussein who had offended Poppy Bush.  The actual effect of that is the deaths of millions of Iraqi’s.  The leadership was also changed; and by the way, who is leading that nation now?  Who knows? read more

WHEN OLIGARCHS FIGHT

First oligarchs can be defined as such, rather than in the gently pandering Western phraseology.  Crack down on the general public along with indulgence of hierarchy is embarrassingly Western. read more
