While most of the world is still in shock, the Trumpanzees are having their last big end-zone victory twerk this weekend, rejoicing in blissful ignorance of what they have wrought. The nation hasn’t been this divided since 1861. Those of us who were Bernie supporters are not only shocked and appalled at the GOP; we […]
The puppet-masters have already predetermined the official narratives of world events long before they ever occur. Anyone who dares disprove the official government lie is labeled a ‘conspiracy theorist.’ This term has such a negative connotation that even the few brave souls left in the media who do investigative reporting are dissembled by propagandists/disinformation agents […]
That headline should have been plastered across America’s newspapers last week. If we still had newspapers. Earlier this month, the National Conference of State Legislators – a bipartisan government watchdog organization – declared that the reform efforts of individual states in the wake of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) had been a miserable failure. According […]
A major argument against any form of truly democratic government (one person = one vote) is that The Masses aren’t knowledgeable enough to decide on the best way to govern. Initially, the Founding Fathers in the USA decided it was reasonable to allow only land owning – i.e., elite people – a vote. But history […]
I’m against flu shots and most vaccines. I guess that makes me some kinda ‘anti-vax’ conspiracy nutcase. I’m 53 years old and I’ve never voluntarily had a flu shot, I admit it. But I am also healthier than most people my age. I just think that getting an ill-vetted vaccine each season is not a […]

De-funding public education is the quickest and easiest way to control the population. The idea is simple: kill critical thinking before it starts. An under-educated populace can be manipulated quite easily, and unless people are aware of their history they are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past. This is where we find ourselves […]
When renowned author and environmental activist Vandana Shiva writes about ‘Mad Cows and Sacred Cows’ she makes a compelling case against the trade policies of the global cattle industry. That cows are sacred in Indian culture almost goes without saying, but few consider the practical, economic and environmental uses of cattle – especially on poor […]
Somehow the pundits on social media hailed Beyoncé’s performance as a profound political statement. Seriously? I hate to break this to America, but Beyoncé Knowles awful half-time show at Stupor Bowl 2016 was embarrassing to watch. There’s no other way to put it. Beyoncé’s musical statement was merely a cynical way to promote herself and her […]
The Stupor Bowl is the American version of the Nazi party rallies from the 1930s. The first twenty minutes of the Stupor Bowl telecast this year was essentially a free commercial for the Pentagon; promoting war and militarism and a glorification of violence. We got to see lots of clean-cut American soldiers in uniforms smiling […]
