[Wave of the hand] "Eff-It, Pardon Them All."

    1. Now how did we get here?         A) JD Vance tells Donald Trump,              1) “Don't—                  a) Don't do this boss!                      (1) Don't release them all—                          (a) Not the most violent ones.                          (b) Not the ones that attack law enforcement!              2) We're the Republican Party—                  a) We're supposed to protect the blue!             3) Remember all those blue American flags?                 a) Protect the blue, yeah.            ...

Fractionate

Conservatives now have irresponsible authority for every aspect of our lives This the worst thing that could happen to conservatives. Being in such power,  the power of life and death The GOP will shatter into factions Indeed, the GOP has already done so While drooling in anticipation The American people will suffer  from the fallout of GOP faction fights Sowing Death Destruction Misery Chaos Democrats have tried to prevent this horrific implosion Strove to demonstrate the responsible exercise of Power Authority The GOP will not go down alone Drowning in corruption Desperately trying to pretend All they are doing is Moral Righteous The GOP MAGA-Republicans will drag us all--ALL-- Down into the Hell of rapacious unfettered Capitalism Where everything--all-- Are for sale for the right price The price for so many of us will be our souls--our Our aspirations Our hopes Our dreams Our desires For a better world

Let's not mince words this terrible day:  the Supreme Court rolled out the red carpet for Donald Trump,  bowing and motioning him to walk into the Oval Office.  Never mind defending  the Constitution  our Democracy  other such Liberal ideals.  All hail Emperor Trump the First!

 So, in essence, most Republicans despise Donald Trump but will still do everything they can to get him elected President-- just to own the Libs That's it that's what this is all about And while the body count rises and all of us are enslaved and women are turned into breeding animals-- all to satisfy these schoolyard bullies who have money to burn just to own the Libs

If AR-15s all disappear: Do pro-gun arguments collapse like a house of cards? Interesting how so many people like Alex Hailey's novel Roots ,  but they don't like the factual 1619 Project .  This is why we need to teach History. I love how middle-aged cis white males  can sit in a local diner in an almost all-white community  grousing how there is no freedom of speech anymore. The reason Conservatives need billionaire donors  is maintaining the Big Lie is  very expensive and  consumes vast resources of  time,  labor, and  money. The core tenet of GOP populism Heterosexual white males must make more heterosexual white males  by any means possible. "Give me white dick or give me death." Amusing: All these militia types Wear woodland camouflage in urban environments in order to hide from themselves from each other from they have done.

It's amazing how all these billionaires  selflessly volunteer to be the new Donald Trump/ Our nation is truly cursed to have them. By the way, do we call Elon Musk "Donald Musk," or "Elon Trump"? The dream of the GOP is to restore slavery, the "final solution" for the cause of white supremacy. And in order to do this the GOP will "destroy America in order to save it." The Confederacy 1.0 (of Civil War 1.0) was to protect slavery as a way of life. Confederacy 2.0 was share-cropping and for-profit prisons, and forced seperation of immigrant children at our southern borders. By the way, where are those children now? Confederacy 3.0 is the GOP life-and-death struggle to restore slavery. How many people would be surprised if I pointed out Conservatives want a race war? It should be obvious by now.

There are not enough living beings on planet Earth to create "herd immunity." Rest assured, the uber-wealthy 10% are fully immunized against COVID-19, including booster shots. Per their capitalist conservative worldview, they fully expect the remaining 90% (you and me) to die of COVID. Those of the 90% who survive will become slaves.

Thoughts for the Day 20230108

 For Conservatives, the question, What is a woman?  is a "gotcha" question. To conservatives, the correct answer is, "A woman  is a person born without a penis. I'm seeing strange arguments about slavery being practiced by non-whites, so this (somehow) hand-waves whites off the hook for importing (and then later smuggling) boatload after boatload of slaves to the Americas for the benefit of white slave-owners: "Oh, everyone was practicing slavery." Rule #1: Slavery  is evil. Rule #2: When in doubt, refer to Rule #1. The fact slavery is near-universal is one of the major failings of our civilization. The prevalence of slavery does not excuse the practice of slavery. How bizarre that conservatives emphasize individual responsibility;  unless it comes to issues of race,  whereupon it's all collective responsibility.

Who will pay for the NECEC corridor?

When voting on the proposed NECEC corridor project, we need to ask simple questions:  How does CMP stand to profit from this project?  What if the profits don't go to Central Maine Power, but to its parent companies?  Suppose all the earnings go upwards, never to come back down:  How will CMP continue to maintain the NECEC corridor?  The burden of maintaining the NECEC corridor won't be absorbed by CMP—nor its parent corporations.  It will be transferred directly to the people of Maine, be it increasing the delivery fee, or raising the kilowatt hourly rates.  And what if there is a natural disaster, such as ice storms or wind storms, that damage the towers and high-tension lines; who will then pay for the repairs?  Again, the people of Maine.  We don't need this unwanted burden imposed on us with no hope of benefit.  Vote to ban the NECEC corridor.

All else is window-dressing

Texas slut-shaming anti-choice law is a "castle defense" for the male penis; so people equipped with a phallus can kill people equipped with a uterus, and all else is window-dressing. 

The Copier Machine of the Past

 Why does living in the past always seem to involve guns firing, uniforms sparkling, foxholes manned, tanks rumbling past, military jets screaming overhead, huge factories churning, gigantic dams rushing water, limousine cars pulling up, and vast steam railroads chugging-chugging-chugging? All of this built/made by white people, with not a single non-white in sight, except to passively enjoy the benefits of being with white people? The history of our past—everyone's past—is always rewritten. So the justifications for this historical revisionism are also in a constant state of rewrite to shore up and prop up the vast overarching conspiracy, the mythology, the Adam Smith collection of fairy tales, that all of our nation's greatness, our social progress, our cultural wealth was made by lily-white hands—only these hands, mouths, feet and brains belonging to white males with wives and children. Children raised to carry on this delusion, maintain and violently defend the lie. For wit...

Re: Texas Anti-choice Vigilante Law

 Really sad to see males in public support women's rights, but privately vote for repressive politicians who ban a woman's right to choose, b/c "MY woman will never abort my child."  The personal is political. BTW: banning abortion does not solve anything, fixes nothing.  This is not just Texas.  Liberals are addressing a universal issue, a fundamental right to "my body, my choice." We are seeing a vicious, cruel, unforgiving mythology at work, based on the Xian bible,  a vile fantasy of Old Testament patriarchs in a modern american culture,  where women exist only to make copies of men. Love how faith that denying a portion of our population medical services based on gender won't boomerang on the rest of the population-- while this gives HMO's greater justification to deny medical services to us all for religious reasons. Put more simply:  fucking over women screws us all.  Is this too existential for y'all? Texas enslavement of women shows how ...

Racism is baked in

We've had the ways and means to effectively address racism and its causes for (at least) the past 60 years. The fact we haven't been able to do so means racism is deeply interwoven into the very fabric of our society and culture, and if it is addressed, the very people who consider themselves the gatekeepers of fashion, society and culture feel threatened. Any efforts to actively confront racism and its root causes triggers legal and political violence, to shock and overawe those activists who seek to bring meaningful progressive change. If we try to make the USA a better place, we will be beaten, teargassed, and arrested—or even killed, slaughtered in the streets by agents of the state, without mercy. The ruling elite desperately—savagely—defends and embraces racism as if those in power cannot survive without it. We see now racism is not just endemic, but a necessary tool of oppression. The ultimate irony—enough to make angels weep—is racism solves nothing. Not a damn thin...

Corporate GOP loves factory farms  Food production becomes a cut-throat market (Globalization)  Independent farmers and farmer cooperatives viewed as competition by corporations  Independent farmers sustained by USDA subsidies  GOP orders USDA to move to Kansas  Most USDA employees refuse to move  USDA effectively shut down as federal agency  Subsidies for independent farmers ends  Independent farmers stop farming; farming cooperatives forced out  Corporate factory farms can't keep up with the demand  Imported food is banned by high tariffs  Food prices skyrocket (at this point the process has spiraled out of control)  Most Americans face death by starvation  GOP rides the horse of Famine into greater power  Processed faux food cheaper than real food  Factory farms use slave labor  Major grocery chains stores torched by starving protesters...

He's their boy

The part sickens me about the atrocities at our border with Mexico, engineered by Stephen Miller, is Miller doesn't operate in a vacuum. And Miller goes to all these parties, where, out of the public eye, away from revealing cameras, the wealthy and powerful gather around him, slap him on the back and shake his hand, saying, "Good work, Stevie-boy--keep it up. We're with you all the way!"

Reason enough to oppose war

Now I know America is being run like a business: 45's admin wants our soldiers to die for nothing--and no benefits.

And Putin smirks

45 is doing such an excellent job of estranging the USA from our former allies and making common cause with tyrants, you'd think it was deliberate....
