INSTITUTIONALIZED HUMANITY

On 5/26/2022 and aired on The PBS NewsHour was an interview about the shooting in Texas, between a PBS host and a mental health “professional”.  The question from the host related to a query as to the reason that predominantly the shooters are young males.  The professional answered in typical psycho babble but without touching on an answer to the question.   read more

ANTI-SOCIAL LEADERSHIP

The following news stories encourage the opinion that greed may be at the bottom of many of the troubles of society, including poverty and war.  These are topics that should be aired openly and discussed from the view of different people.  As one with an overriding concern for the environment and opposition to Climate Change, the health of people and nature are the subject. read more

WHEN POLITICIAN PRIORITIES AREN’T THE PUBLIC


Misinformation on social media is conceivably displaced by misinformation reported on state-influenced/corporate-owned media.  This is a reason the responsibility of each person is to investigate information personally rather than to take ideas of others as FACTual.

COALESCENCE OF NATURE AND PEOPLE

Bureaucracy requires winners and losers in order to stay in control of the public.  The majority of local-community members want to live their personal lives according to their own wishes, in peace and dignity.  Wars are perpetrated for the promotion of hierarchy and generally for the interests and profits of the wealthy.  The obscenely wealthy generally didn’t gain their positions according to principles of restraint and self-awareness.  Anyone must acknowledge the work that goes into becoming wealthy as defined by oligarchy, but at that level a line often has been crossed.  Use of said wealth to pass laws favorable to what has come to be called “the economy” exacerbates the corruption. read more

SUPREMACY OVER AGELESS WISDOM

This must be a national security risk far beyond any risk from a foreign nation, and it is current, intense, ubiquitous, and nasty—- read more

DO DEMOCRACY AS WE SAY, NOT AS WE DO

Each of the Russian-Ukrainian military action and the Supreme Court confirmation hearing raises important questions about US policy.  As we “spread democracy around the world”, how is democracy playing out in the USA?

BEYOND INDOCTRINATION

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

REFUGEES OF MOTHER EARTH

Is it a wonder that some of the elite are planning for a future away from Mother Earth? read more

GLOBALISM

Oligarchs are the winner in war, local communities are not and neither is nature.  The winners write the narrative to promote their interests for history.  War is on the side of Climate Change.  Industry profits exceptionally.  Economic globalism without communal globalism is a travesty. read more

NATURE AND HUMANITY STILL MATTER

Collaboration between politicians, commercial interests, and corporate-owned-state-run MSM crowd out the reality of the majority of humanity and of nature.  This is a good time to stop such travesty by hearing diverse voices. read more

EVOLUTION OF BIRD BRAINS

Wonder never ceases as nature unfolds, and people pay attention.  This raises questions about the evolution of human brains, that may be developing contrary to the wisdom of nature, and more through the chauvinism of technology.  Ability to indoctrinate human beings raises a few questions. read more

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

Remembering that the Haudenosaunee are said to be the origin of principles included in the US Constitution that don’t appear to rest on a foundation of capitalism but rather on a foundation of free enterprise as pertains to but are not limited to financial matters, hope continues that culture as lived pre-colonization can triumph.  Time will tell.  Meanwhile, Upstate NY is benefiting, so far, from said leadership.  The hope builds that we remember nature and the wilderness. read more

IT’S LIKE THEY’RE ABOVE THE LAW

Legalized corruption in elections byway of Citizens United seems to have produced the culture in which politicians don’t think they are above the law, they are above the law. 
Big-money campaign donors have highly questionable influence over local politicians.  One doesn’t suggest money was an influence in the following scenario.  But what happened to the governmental suggestion that politicians should avoid the appearance of corruption? read more
