PATRIARCHY IN PLEASANT VALLEY
PATRIARCHY IN PLEASANT VALLEY
Capitalism thrives when we “run government like a business”, which means wealth transfer from the 100% to the 1%. Citizens United is the funding tool that ensures oligarchical legality over legitimate principles in our democratic Constitutional Republic. Local politicians and bureaucrats network to strengthen this traditional model of patriarchal exploitation. Indications of evidence were reported on local news reports this week.
LIFE IN AN OLIGARCHY
LIFE IN AN OLIGARCHY
In the inane gluttony embraced by so many Americans that has transformed a democratic Republic into an oligarchy in which human resources (people) are abused as easily as are natural resources (the environment) for profit, “running government like a business” is showing its criminality.

The news is filled with information to enlighten voters. An important topic must be child abuse and domestic violence.
EQUITABLE CAPITALISM
EQUITABLE CAPITALISM
So voting works. Transparency in political campaigns is recommended. Sometime-offensive questions asked of those who would presume to leadership is a voter responsibility. If the electorate finds a Christian Nationalist has been foisted off as a legitimate leader, push back is possible and desirable.

C-Span hosted discussions about this week’s top news stories. Crime was high on the list.
SLIPPERY SLOPE TO TYRANNY
SLIPPERY SLOPE INTO TYRANNY
As a militant old Feminist who has warned young ladies over the last 30 years ago, as hubris soared as to security of their human rights, one warned that, “No, ladies, they’re coming after your rights. You don’t get patriarchal hierarchy.”
PUBLIC SERVANT OR SHYSTER?
PUBLIC SERVANT OR SHYSTER?
We need to question more closely, those telling our story to us. Myth could be involved. Myth is pretty…sometimes ugly.
WHEN PATRIARCHY ISN’T THE ANSWER
WHEN PATRIARCHY ISN’T THE ANSWER
Double talk could be detected as the C-Span guest, expert Dr. Anand Parckh, denigrated the notion of universal health care because, he insinuated, the corporate-friendly ACA/Obamacare is working better, while also urging Americans to remember the qualities and benefits of Primary Care. How is this perceived as double talk? The language is soothingly that of capitalistic hierarchical Establishment that promotes the requirement for players to “claw their way up the ladder of success” for profiteering, that specifically negates a dedicated medical industry to offer the less expensive and so less lucrative primary care. And so the bait-and-switch continues. Try again, Dr. Parckh; some people are listening. And yes we do need a more humanity-friendly universal heath care system.
WE THE PIGEONS
So patriarchy held up a mirror to itself and were shocked…SHOCKED…to watch what the rest of us are forced to tolerate everyday as they inflict their version of who we should be in utter authoritarian presumption and self-indulgence.
CHANGE
Patriarchy maintains Supremacy byway of violence, intimidation, and aggression, as it always has. This is a system of control and totalitarianism that isn’t necessarily healthy for human and natural rights, or for a healthy society. But it works well for the types of people we currently find in positions of leadership. A change of system is required.
INDOCTRINATION NATION
INDOCTRINATION NATION
Ah, patriarchy…..First the obfuscation and intimidation to set the tone, then the knight in shining armor rides in to save the day. Could we discuss whether a preliminary governing system of ethical behavior without human rights violations, would forestall the bait-and-switch? Perception of corruption is a simmering cesspool that buoys the notion of a need for a protection racket. This is the recognizable set up for strong man presumption for the need to rely on those who may have caused the harmful situations to begin with.
ANOTHER SENSELESS MURDER
So how many girls have received “the talk” about what to wear in public, areas to avoid, and how to carry one’s car keys for protection? And this in the most free nation on Earth, according to rumor.
SEPARATION OF POWER
For those who argue that we are a Constitutional Republic and not a democracy, one wishes an explanation that the People’s Republic of China is labeled communistic. Both democracy and communism are process, and to mix the two with the notion of a Republic is word play.
STRONG MEN
One requests forbearance for the following copy and paste. One was unaware of a follow-up incident reported on local news that again shines light in dark Southern Tier corners. The newest story follows the copy and paste that sets the stage for the concern from some people about a growing ‘ole boy insinuation that may be founded upon the current “strong man” ideas of governance expressed by some mediocre political hacks. Some people view these self-defined “strong men” as the typical historical patriarchy that uses brutality, greed, and self-interest in place of statespersonship.Copy and paste—–
