BETTER LATE THAN NEVER
Judging from calls to C-Span recently, it would seem a growing number of Americans are noticing that any presumption about US democracy or freedom is instead a dictatorship by the Republican/Democratic duopoly.
LISTEN TO YOUR GRIFTER
Apparently grifters will say it as often as possible, hoping it will begin to sound true.
MAY DAY
May Day is an American holiday. Who knew?
https://www.rbth.com/lifestyle/330314-may-first-in-russia –May 1 became International Labor Day after the tragedy at Haymarket Square in Chicago, Illinois, USA. In early May 1886, demonstrations were held in Chicago and other US cities demanding an eight-hour working day. It might seem a no-brainer today, but in the late 19th century many tycoons did not believe that workers had the right to sleep.
JUST BY TELLING THE TRUTH
Is Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. choosing a new Presidential-candidate campaign message?
RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION OR EGO TRIP?
C-Span is a resource that is as good as it gets on the topic of transparency. Without information a democracy doesn’t function. And by the way, as heard on a Bill Moyers Show, government don’t do democracy, people do.
DEFINE PATRIARCHY
Anyone ready to rethink the excuse that “boys will be boys” long enough to consider it simple psychosis?
OLIGARCHY OR MERITOCRACY?
Either work well in capitalism.
They say time is money. It’s also your life.
LIVE IN DIGNITY
Dignity too often has been lost in the rush toward a progress defined in terms of privilege, greed, and exploitation.
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?
FREEDOM ISN’T FREE
Too often freedom for one person comes at the liability of another. Socialism could be a label to suggest balancing away from exploitation of this type, if it must be labeled. Another phrase could be respect for natural, human, and civil rights. Either way, everyone should have a voice in defining freedom, not only the hierarchy.
QUESTION DICTATORSHIP
The US public has been hearing endless descriptions of life in our nation, and the exceptional supremacy over lives of other people around the globe. In FACT, the rest of the globe is often so informed of US exceptionalism. MSM that represents the D&R duopoly are the mouthpiece for this information. But more and more we begin to hear alternative views that seem legitimate when we consider there must be more than one view. Consider a few other perspectives…
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR FREEDOM
Inculcation of the public into Capitalist Party/Communist Party hierarchical systems has limited democracy and local-community autonomy, and the inevitable failure of this top-down governance is being exposed. Hierarchy continues to mouth incorrect information in last-ditch efforts to retain power.
INFLATION = PRICE GOUGING
The worry of inflation would feel more easily handled if it was addressed as price gouging or monopoly, for which laws are in place. When it is labeled as inflation, the predatory behavior can be hidden behind the curtain of the wizard. This is one reason one is charmed by the adorable presumption as discussed on C-Span this week, that ubiquitous monitoring of the US public for anxiety should become commonplace. A better policy would be for competent governance that doesn’t undermine Americans and contribute to anxiety.
NATURAL CULTURE RIGHTS
Direction and control by hierarchy are supported by homogenizing culture into a malleable and sterile unit.
STORIES THEY TELL US
Questions can be as important as answers to establish reality about topics that most of us haven’t absorbed.
