Fw: I could never be a martyr.

-




I could never be a martyr.
Sit like siddartha, pour gasoline on my head, and strike the match of my desire.
Choose where you want to be.
It used to be in front of at Dow Chemical
They wrote big boy on a nuclear bomb,
A plane, a drone, a white house that never listens.
The children of the children's children wiped from the earth.

Trump reversion to 1798

-
If you think trumps reversion to 1798 to take on deportation what about our fascination with attributing jewish as the chosen people by God himself, thus assuring all that we have today as far as blessing for genocide, ethnic cleansing, and dehumanizing interference in gazans obtaining food, water' and shelter. Huckabee, a christian zionist. I always thought jesus was coming, not to save the zionist but to save humanity. Religious belief is as confused as democrat-republican differences. You can run but you cant hide. Because the only one looking for you is your own conscience. Uprising by muse It looks like trump is appointing alot of women to positions of political influence. Is that diversity at work? Groundwork for future presidents? Sophie's Choice as immigration policy. Macchiavelli as foreign policy Adam Smith as economic policy. Oliver Cromwell as Domestic Policy The Bible as Definer of Freedom No one has asked me for my opinion...

Forgive america

-
Why i cant forgive america although i am a white man and have never experienced any of the terrible events in my lifetime that were precipitated by the false, faked, infallibility of the american dream. Yes, some may see me from the outside in, middle class, retired, comfortable but inside my head, heart and soul is a complex mixture of guilt, anger, fear, isolation, and a resounding moral standoff between my natural world and americas unnatural world that all of us are exposed to and manipulated by. Its toxicity on everyones minds, hearts, and souls is all encompassing. After much introspection, ive concluded some things that i have played out during the course of my life. There are three historical events that stand out for me in which america, as a nation, manifested its true metal. This manifestation goes beyond americas supposed defense of principles related to humanitarian rights for all, which always   turned out to be for just some, especially de...

True believer

-
I f you're a true believer in the two state solution, that is, still believing that somehow a miracle of cooperation of western nations will make gaza great again or a true believer in the slow, slow relief from ill effects of climate change by a miracle of cooperation of all the oil based, oil users, oil producer nations will make climate change go away, or a true believer of peace, believing that a miracle of cooperation of western nations allied with their enemies list of combative nations will decide to make love, not war by willingness to let go of all the grudges, deceptions, wars, conflicts, accusations, then you must be under the influence of a delusion about how the political world exists. Seriously, stop and think for once. I'm talking to you who have driven the left skyward since the seventies when everyone went off and got jobs without conscience, supporting minor activist and charitable programs that had more to do with self-help than revoluti...

Gone Days, Good Riddance, On to What Ever the Future Dishes Out

-
 The words and terms, standards, rules, and laws are no longer useful. They've been beat down, corrupted, lied about, exposed, abused and mostly ignored, and forgotten. Gone are the days when we are one movement. If we ever were. maybe it’s the days when we thought we were one movement that are gone. We believed we were the first to control consciousness, corner it, like it was a beaten animal but it came out enraged and dangerous instead, ready to fight. The term human degenerated into the term ‘matter’ or "consumer." We had been broken down into dna, goals, ambition, and cannon fodder. No one will give a shit about any of us twenty years after we become successful. Even the greatest, strongest, most wealthy among us become footnotes in the history books, and sooner or later the history books will be obsolete because they will be so replete with lies and self-aggrandizing stories that reading or learning from Aesop’s Fables or the Holy Bible will be just as fulfilling, a...

Fw: seeds of dissent root in the blood of martyrs

-
- seeds of dissent root in the blood of martyrs together, we were strong, then Apart, we fall unto a sword of personal perdition,  acceptance of their insanity, over our own desires. Opened our arms to their vendettas,  Became what we once despised. an age-old rhyme, freedom fighters  How can change happen in a country where policy makers age out their worn-out old ideas about the world against the persistence of the young, the insistence of new minds who dont want old men with old minds to protect them. The old architects of fear, who can only build castles, walls, moats, call it progress,  shame on them, Here we are at Columbia again sixty years later, the same issues, same monsters running to the shelter of their always dying society,  dying. dead.  The children of the children of the children consummated by the old vestiges of war, genocide, lies. Encircled. We've seen this ...

Money2

-
Money2 Everybody needs money, right? The issues around money are numerous and depending on how anyone measures the importance of those issues. Heres some of those issues. How money is made. How money is spent. How much money one should have. How little money one can have and still survive. These are some of the questions people aske themselves and some that become moral questions, especially in reference to who spends the public money and how public money is spent. Public money is that money that historically, those obligated to pay part of their money to those who say they are paying for public resources, such as infrastructure, social programs, foreign policy, including supporting war in its various forms. Advertisement: for those literati out there i suggest rereading or reading Atlas Shrugged, by ayn rand, a precursor to our american government being run by billionaires which we can say, capitalist adventurers wanting to control the world. Who is J...

Money and Other News

-
Latest News- Assad goes away, so is another afghanistan on the way? More on that later but now, it's mostly about money Liberals and progressives are again in a self-created conumdrum. The trump presidency which includes his appointments are about to attempt to dismantle the federal government we love to hate but its like rescuing your drunken parent from further harm but with no cure insight. We'd rather continue on with not a wounded beast which america likes to imagine itself but a really, nearly worthless concept that has been perverted, corrupted, self-destructive, and downright a lying, sociopathic nation for hundreds of years, ever since it rewrote the rules for genocide (supremacy) and slavery (ownership). But i come to bury Caesar, not to kill it. Recently, i experienced the death of my sister. Other than my parents, no one in my immediate family had experienced a long term terminal illness as her disease progressed through two years of treatme...

Today, Election Day, Nov 5th, 2024 (Memory)

-
 Something borrowed, something not blue, something old and never used. I don't know but if I didn't know better, it seems I've waited all my life for this day, or maybe, the day after, which would be tomorrow, wouldn't it be? You know, whatever day it is when a victor is announced. Will it be Project 2025 or Project Glad to Be Rid of Donald Trump But Everything Remains the Same, Sounds the Same, and Is the Same. Never mind. We have to wait. Old friends, who have passed from revolutionary to grandparent (whatever politics that is) calling yesterday to say they're too old to go live in the Canadian mountains if Trump is elected. I try and be calm and say, I'm too old to go through whatever either of these candidates offer for the future. I was left out of the Great American Dream long ago but i, like the billions of others on this earth, that are not in awe of the American diaspora, buckled down to work and play all our lives. Revolution according to Marx, or Mao ...

We're Still Living Out the Old Testament

-
Do we really want to believe that judaism is god's message to the world, or Islam is way to peace, or Christianity is Love and Understanding, or America is the Defender of Freedom, or we are the center of the Universe? Here's a brief script I borrowed from wikipedia not wilileaks illustrating the fact we are still living in the middle ages where all this became a reality rather than a story, just a story that Men used to rape, kill, and maim. 1500 B.CE  (approx.) Zoroaster  Many historians trace the apocalyptic world view back to                          the Persian prophet Zoroaster, who spoke of a cosmic                          battle between good and evil ending in a new, perfect                          world for humanity. The Zoroastrian tradition survives      ...
