CULT OF DEATH

The USA was birthed as a genocidal White male Christian society. It remains so today. That is the DNA of this nation. It was never a true democracy, and the USA has struggled to embrace women’s equality or civil rights. That’s the root of what MAGA is all about: a desire to return to the […]

PUERTO RICO IS NOT FUNNY

The disgusting, racist jokes made by supposed comedian Tony “pinch a loaf” Hinchcliffe at Donald tRump’s Nazi rally Sunday night at Madison Square Garden have been widely condemned by all living beings on Earth, while the Republican Party simply doubles down on the hate. In front of the assembled GOP, Hinchcliffe insulted Puerto Ricans [for […]

A SLOW-MOTION TRAIN WRECK

America is well and truly fucked. The ultra-right wing evangelicals, the billionaires, the MAGA morons and the Supreme Court have all made sure the word “democracy” only applies to them. Not only Trump, but any president in the future can now reign as dictator. If he wins, Trump will rule as long as he pleases. […]

STANDING ALONE

Once again the US stands alone against the entire world in opposing any ceasefire in GAZA. I am ashamed and disgusted to be an American. Again. Why must we always be on the wrong side of history? The day after vetoing another UN resolution calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire, “president” Biden cynically bypassed Congressional […]

It’s astonishing to see how effective the ongoing cover story has been, which is still being pushed by the […]

COMPARING THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE TO ‘LETTER FROM BIRMINGHAM JAIL’

The Declaration of Independence, created by Thomas Jefferson, is a classic argumentative work. Jefferson makes his point clearly and convincingly, but his argument is more tightly structured and does not utilize the variety of different rhetorical approaches that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr uses in ‘Letter from Birmingham Jail’. In that classic work, Dr. King […]

THE SECOND SEX

In The Second Sex, Simone de Beauvoir passionately outlines her philosophy concerning the relationship between men and women. She asserts that women should be acknowledged as “free and autonomous” human beings, in spite of the fact that they have traditionally been forced to assume the role of “the OTHER” – weaker, more emotional, inferior sex. […]

“Fiscal Responsibility” my ass!

I agree with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. This hideous budget deal should not be passed. It appears that the Dems couldn’t even wait for default before they caved into all of the GOP’s demands. Sad. If so many republicans are happy about it, it’s CLEARLY a terrible deal. DUH. That’s a dead giveaway we’re fucked. This is […]
