This Time the World

 

 

“THIS TIME THE WORLD”

January 6, 2021 may seem like a long time ago, but it is very much with us today–only the danger is now far worse. It was America back then, is it now…this time the world?

It’s the big lie that never ends.

It’s the bloated arrogance that knows no bounds.

It’s the greed and grift — sanctioned in institutionalized stealing — by the rich and most powerful at the endless expense of the working class, so pervasive and jaw-dropping that they don’t bother trying to hide their theft and corruption anymore.

It’s the disdainful disregard of our own history littered with costly failures and painful tragedies so many times before, here and abroad, which might teach us a valuable lesson if we’d only try and learn — yet we never, never, never, never do.

It’s the selective enforcement of law and order, wrapped in the flag and bull-horned by verses in the Bible, at the cost of truth, science, morality, common decency, and the desecration of human freedom.

It’s placing public trust in the most untrustworthy of all of our citizens, despite all their proven misdeeds and crimes that we no longer find shocking, but now have come to expect, and many willingly accept.

Yes. All of it.

Predicting the Future (2025 to 2050)

 

 

PREDICTING THE FUTURE

In 1999, a vast cross-section of Americans were asked to predict the future. Nearly a thousand who were surveyed revealed what they thought the USA and the rest of the world would be like in the year 2025. Now (actually 26 years later), it’s time for a final grade and the report card. How did they do on their predictions?

We may not realize how much our lives changed in the last quarter century. Back in 1999, the internet was just taking off as a source of information and communication. Smartphones had not yet been invented. Artificial Intelligence (AI) was something robotic in a lab. No one had ever heard of COVID. Donald Trump was only on his second wife–and third bankruptcy. 9-11-01 and 1-6-21 were just numbers. Boston Red Sox still hadn’t won a World Series in 87 years. The Chicago Cubs last championship was 92 years ago. How much did they get right, and where were they wrong?

These Disunited States: A Serious Question About Secession

 

 

THESE DISUNITED STATES:
A QUESTION ABOUT SECESSION

How many of you would vote for a national divorce? Another word for this is — a secession, which then becomes a partition. That would mean a state or group of states leaving the USA and forming a new sovereign nation. Of course, several states did try this once back during the 1860s and things didn’t turn out so well. But, let’s assume a modern hypothetical secession could be peaceful—-would you support it?

Answering this question requires creative imagination. Given the sprawling U.S. map and how states could presumably divide, many isthmuses would be necessary to connect states scattered everywhere. Moreover, big cities in some states would protest. And, rural people in other states would protest, too. No one wants to be a minority inside their own “country.” So, even if it could happen, there are problems with dividing along red-blue boundaries.

When you think more about it, secession sounds next to impossible in practical terms. But for the sake of discussion, let’s shelve those concerns for now and just talk hypothetically —

WOULD YOU AGREE TO A PEACEFUL SECESSION IF GIVEN A CHANCE TO VOTE ON IT?

The First “Woke” Movement

 

 

NO, “WOKE” DID NOT ORIGINATE ON THE LEFT:
IT’S ORIGINS MAY ACTUALLY SURPRISE YOU

In the summer heat of 1971 in broad daylight in front of thousands of people protesting “offensive ethnic stereotypes” in New York City, a stranger approached Mafia godfather Joseph Columbo and blasted three bullets into his body, including two into the head. More on that story in a moment.
