Recently I ended my long association with Facebook, cancelling both my personal account and writer’s page. The primary reason? Mark Zuckerberg and his evil minions (the ones left) have changed Facebook too much because they’re only interested in making more money. But my action was also that because Facebook has been slow to moderate bigotry,… Continue reading Fascism in our social media…

Deals with the DINOs…
The DINOs still ruined the effectiveness of the Dems’ multifaceted bill even though it was already whittled down. First, let’s talk about DINO Joe. If you were wondering why Sen. Joe Manchin suddenly changed his mind to support some of the “Build Back Better” agenda, I was too. It turns out the motivation for that… Continue reading Deals with the DINOs…
Are we selling our souls for fossil fuels?
President Biden might have said Vladimir Putin has no soul, but POTUS is selling his to MBS. Mad-dog Putin is starving the world of fossil fuels. So is that mad-dog Saudi prince! And Biden shouldn’t blast one dictator and kiss the ass of another! Biden is wrong to visit Saudi Arabia, the country that engineered… Continue reading Are we selling our souls for fossil fuels?
Common-sense gun control…
As a complement to last week’s post, I’ll continue to applaud the NY Times’s analysts for their publication of America’s deadly gun stats. Not only that, but in last Sunday’s article, “4 Laws Might Have Saved Lives in 35 Mass Shootings” (6/5/2022), it’s clear that the Fascist Party of America aka the Good Ole Piranhas… Continue reading Common-sense gun control…
Again?
Yet another mass shooting, once again in a school; and some politicians are whining and moaning that something should be done, but nothing ever is done! One obvious reason: Too many politicians covet the funding from the NRA and gun manufacturers’ lobbies. That’s just more evidence about how greed and power keep America sliding down… Continue reading Again?
Do we trust Elon Musk?
I’ll admit the guy has vision. He had the idea that became PayPal, which is a lot better than Zelle or any of its competitors (Zelle has become a scammer’s go-to money-transfer site). Tesla and Space-X came along and proved his vision in spades. Unlike the other two rich boys with their expensive rocket toys,… Continue reading Do we trust Elon Musk?
America’s companies support fascism…
This is no surprise, I suppose, and I’m not afraid to say it. In these posts, I call a spade a spade, although that word has two meanings, and multinational conglomerates are trying to bury us with one. Corporations are essentially fascist organizations. Some little tyrant with no moral scruples and his willing cohorts lord… Continue reading America’s companies support fascism…
Senior abuse…
While the Good Ole Piranhas would love to do away with all the big social programs for seniors completely—Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid—Biden and many Dems now seem to be willing accomplices. The latter are doing everything they can to lose seniors’ votes. Their “Build Back Better” plan considers “improvements” to Medicare—hearing care, for example,… Continue reading Senior abuse…
Tech crooks?
Not long ago, the NY Times published an article that considered this question: Why isn’t the tech industry charged and sentenced more for the crimes they commit? I wouldn’t have wasted all that space they did on the answer, because it’s an easy one: The tech industry watches and controls most human activity now! They’re… Continue reading Tech crooks?
