Nine of the 10 poorest states in America are Red. What does that tell you? The people who vote Republican – mostly poor and working class whites who do so against their own economic interests – are like attack dogs for the rich. They are trained to growl and bark at things like a decent […]
Human beings are NOT the apex of evolution [that would be dolphins…]; and we are certainly not any more important than any other living creature on this planet. We have the right to exist and that ought to be good enough. Our lack of respect for the earth extends to our dysfunctional society. We don’t […]
Food democracy is a true grassroots movement toward sustainable, responsible, healthy and community-based food production and distribution. The food democracy movement asserts that people have the power and the responsibility to actively participate in decisions concerning their food system. The ultimate goal of food democracy is to guarantee that all people have access to affordable, healthy and […]
Of course they lie. They lie because they want to. They lie because they can. They lie because it is second nature to them; it just comes naturally. These people have no conscience: they lack empathy, and they lack of any sense of responsibility for their actions. Dishonesty, arrogance, greed and corruption are hardwired into […]
I’m having politics fatigue. I haven’t exactly run out of evidence to support my position, but there is a particular stumbling block I keep running into when I try to reach across the proverbial aisle to have one of those “difficult conversations” with Trumpanzees such as my asshole brother.

Fascism is an easy enough tag to apply to current political trends; but it is not a fully appropriate label. America has been slowly morphing into something else over the past fifty-plus years.

America’s public school system has been a failure because of a successful 30-year GOP effort to de-fund the system in favor of private and charter schools. The purpose of this policy was always to destroy the learning environment of the students, and extinguish the average child’s innate desire to explore and learn. This indoctrination – […]
Obedience to authority is one of the hallmarks of the Trump cult. Dozens of recent studies have shown how the “conservative” mind is different from normal human brains. People with fascistic views are ruled (fittingly enough) by the ‘reptilian’ part of the brain – the most primitive and un-evolved region of the brain stem. Because […]
People are missing the big picture regarding this whole sordid Jeffery Epstein affair. Here is the Truth: Jeffrey Epstein was part of a global pedophile ring – part of a human trafficking network which has been operating behind the scenes of global geopolitics since Biblical times. Call them Satanists, Reptilians, Freemasons, the Illuminati or whatever […]
Unions have done a lot of good things for working people in America. Labor unions like the AFL-CIO, Teamsters and UAW helped to create the middle class. Because of all the benefits unionization has provided for working men and women over the years, Republicans have tried to demonize them as part of some vague socialist […]
