  Posted Nov 15, 2016 Another Example of What Comes Around, Stays Around I'm Forwarding this to the blog as an intelligent precursor to the type of discussions that must prevail if progressive americans are going to finally lead anyone away from what the media, political parties and haters and what they want us to believe. The next revolution will be more about who we are as human beings, our commonality, our desire to love and simply raise our children, love our partners, and do the work we want and need to do in order to be a part of this society. tb      For those who don't know Andre Taylor: his older brother  Che Taylor was killed by Seattle police last February , and shortly after that Andre founded the Seattle group  Not This Time . Here are Andre's very wise thoughts in brief: " [People say about Trump supporters]  They don't like Black people. They want Latinos gone... Well, I reject that idea. I'm insulted, really, by that idea, especial...

From 2016 Has anyone ever heard of Willets Point? American business and politicians respond to blight, homeless, and business failures, throwing money away. There must be more of these, I betcha. I always wonder what happened to Americas ghettoes and industrial stagnation, do you? http://m.mic.com/articles/138741/espn-tried-to-shame-cuba-on-poverty-and-it-backfired-spectacularly  

  written October 2016 One thing about this election and at least one of the candidates, maybe you can guess who it is, is who 's behind him. Oh, I know there lots of people out there frustrated not only with the political process, I don't know how you can't be, but many people who probably haven't cared who or what, except for criticism of Obama, immigrants, and Muslims, but also who have been patiently waiting for the King, any King, or Queen( Sarah Palin) to want to become President. The establishment parties are certainly rocking since people who traditionally voted independent or not at all have decided to play a part. I wonder though about who is supporting Trump, that is, not monetarily but militarily. Since he's shown many faces, I wonder who his faces will be as his staff. I've seen his spokespeople, and they are as amorphous as the rest of the other candidate's spokespersons. In the meantime, America looks about as vulnerable as ever, its weaknesse...

Those who believe they're successful because of the powerful and inspiring voices of their parents saying, "you can be whatever you want," appealing to magical incantations of hope, to become the chosen ones. Immigrants are nothing but new settlers, new plymouth rocks or jamestowns, bringing not hope but old religions and false beliefs to the country that wishes it could be free but isnt. The little country that could try evolving to the glutton that would grow beyond its borders, to expand beyond the simplicity of peace and prosperity, to lose everything to the belief might makes right and right is mighty blind, deaf, and mean. Welcome you all to hell on earth. Come and appeal your cause. Politics is nothing but the management of resources through working for what you can pay for as determined by the owners of those resources. That's all. Not about what fools think god wants, what presidents want, what billionaires want. It's about wha...

 It appears that for the first time the content you can't read is a prose poem/rant that was written long ago about the stifling of life by the armies of the night, our own governments, taking our freedoms from the moment we are born. A complaint was made by one of those lessor blind men, or I suppose, a woman, who are trying to pretend we are a nation of freedom loving souls but first we have to cull out what freedoms we want to promote. I am an anti-fascist, an anti-authoritarian, and ever since i was seventeen standing around in the war room of intelligence/op-plans i have not recognized the right of the United States to be the Supreme Leader of the world. Today it fosters genocide and colonialism in the mid-east. Two centuries ago, it fostered genocide and colonialism (both forms of slavery and white supremacy) within its own changing borderlines. In between centuries, America.

  (Before I go further, I assume you, the readers, have noticed the Warning at the entrance to this blog. I apologize to those who will refrain from coming anymore because by having to sign in ( i have to as well) maybe seems somewhat intimidating. It's about Google and about the fact that now to thwart freedom of expression by calling it something else is all too easy for nut cases who feel threatened by talk and miss the point entirely. Freedom of expression is being renounced all over america today and if you hear any politician decrying that fact, let me know, and I'll send them the anti-hate freedom award. But I'll keep on writing, though after this election it wont be much use to anybody. Just don't vote, organize, resist, and love, protect yourselves, your family and everyone else AND prepare for the worst because that's what we're going to get, no matter who our so-called leaders are.) Am I the cynical one when liberal media analysts talk about soldier l...

One shouldnt have to be a scholar to understand basic nuances of justice, equality, and humanism nor even faith, hope and charity but it appears that's what one has to do. Eight years ago we were bombarded with the ignorance of the most ignorant of the candidates running for president, and though people rightly rejected the old standard war horse of the democratic party, at the same time, voting for the lessor of two evils for most voting for trump turned into a national farce. The media, fear of the left, fear of black people (all immigrants painted with the same brush), all contributed to this fiasco. But, rather than breathe a sigh of relief in 2020, the democrats continued to be in retrograde when it came to prosecuting the two-state solution in lieu of defending the fascistic Patriot Act.   The patriotidiot act has dominated US foreign policy since its enactment. A document defending any right leaning faction, party, or government in every nation on e...

Before thee, we kneel. Who would have guessed that one of the most prejudicial issues over the century, anti-semitism (slavery, fascism being an example of two others) would be the pivotal issue to bring down civilization, if we can define "civilization" as the actual realization of a cultural mileau. Meaning that whether good or bad, most likely and common being good and bad in relative ratio. The fall begins in the modern age, world war 2, the holocaust, the culmination of the western world's almost universal prejudice of judaism. Historically, like slavery, the roots go back to the medieval fears of race, religion, and power. As we, the left, would have it, israel deserved to be punished for its seventy five years of ethnic cleansing, stealing of land, oppression of the innocent in lieu of the not so innocent idea that jews are the chosen people of an empty god. Although international humanitarian law outlines and defines what may or may not b...

If we're not going to have a type of democratic system where politicians actually represent their constituents and still have realistic differences with their politician brothers and sisters AND compromise and work out real solutions to real problems, then we need to go to an alternative. The alignment of special populist interests against the wealthy interests that currently roam the halls of congress and state houses is necessary. Call these populist interests unions, lobbies, or any other name that represents their goals. Tenant's unions, workers unions, medical/healthcare consumer unions Their goals will be the issues that politicians neglect or believe that prior legislation whether current or past has adequately addressed citizen demands. Recent DOJ lawsuit against RealPage shows real estate corporations are banding together to keep rental prices high during downturns and raising rates together so diminishing competition within the communty. R...

Could have left how you found it without going to the front lines and confound it with all your strife Its hard to figure why hamas and hezbollah and even israel, russia and ukraine Go to all that trouble to eke out their form of paradise when it seems they could have left it like they found it And itd be better than than the way they made it. Thats good for america too. The age of exploration was more like the age of domination The christian soldiers, getting everyone ready for the apocalypse, and it still hasnt come yet, It just looks as if they could have left what they discovered to already be, Left it alone, the way it was when they found it, instead they stand around with their armies, believin gods on their side, Languishing outside the gates of hell or auschwitz or gulag 17 or black sites, black holes with no names, or borders where youre either locked in or locked out. Were all standing around, mired in our histories of violence. Point...

If we say war is never justified in a truly humanitarian world where every human being is no more no less valued than any other, then we are on the side of history thats aligned with all the humanitarian, social justice ideals ever thought or believed. That puts us in the bullseye of the rest who control us as well as control all the reasons for war, capitalism, and fascism. Israel along with its torturing ally, the united states, have redefined warfare in the past seven decades. The imperial arm of the us over the decades by cia sponsored guerrilla operations throughout the world, the weaponization of "friendly" terrorists (such as al Quada, taliban, shite, shia) in order to further worldwide resistance to any other national aggression, and the state authorized development of torture and black sites to coerce information.   The weaponization of allies has now become an outed foreign policy supported by nearly all politicians, as well as citizens. ...
