Revolution

-

I hear there's screaming in the street, 

Sirens and horns signifying retreat

Don't let the bloody banner hit the ground

The revolutions finally come to town


There'll be plenty of time to suffer later.

Once the tyrants hit the ground.

Don't take their heads for they only grow another.

Just make them suffer then turn them loose without their wallets.

Be humble about your revenge.

If you look, meaning read, or know, about cosmology

-
If you look, meaning read, or know, about cosmology, and new theories of universes, and black holes, you'd realize that infinity and God and everything we can see through the lens of both telescopes and microscopes have nothing to do with us. The chances that there is someone like you with almost the exact DNA is both obscure and a surety, that's how random it all is. And how unnecessary any of us are in the real scheme of things. With that in mind, I can say we aren't really a nation of law and order but a cosmology of beliefs, both true and untrue, time worn out traditions and false assumptions and unfortunately there is a small amount of people who are willing to admit this or realize its consequences. Human societies, especially the most authoritarian, those who completely disregard any legitimized law and are skeptical, which they should be, any commonsense law have so bound their citizenry with the ropes of legalities, making it impossible for most common people to ev...

Recant the incantation.

-
Recant the incantation. I've been watching and listening to alot of you tube dissenters, but mostly the Young Turks, who I actually like most of the time but recently they had an episode trying to recycle the "I love America, but not what America does" incantation in order to alleviate concerns, I suppose, of regular people who listen to their righteous spiel, yet think they may be anti-American as well as anti-Semitic. Frankly, I don't know what America is. It's kind of like Gertrude Stein's statement about Oakland, "There is no there, there." Don't get me wrong, I like Oakland in the same way I think of America. I lived there and live here in America. I born here, my parents born here, and eventually, as for us all, and I mean all, go back far enough and all our ancestors born somewhere else. Whether by land bridges, boats, by foot path, air, and ambition, we have all come here, tried to live here, made here in spite the unnatural obstacles th...

Shame

-
Shame Here's one problem with democrats and democrat constituents. Shame. I don't feel sorry for those who don't vote because they are ashamed to vote on benefit type of issues. Medicade, Snap. Social Security, Free public education. Regulations to protect the health, and, possibly the most important, vote to protect the constitutional rights of due process and justice for all. If you can't arise above lessor issues, such as the ones that only affect you, to unite over the most important issues of your lifetime, then so be it. Don't be ashamed. Being on food stamps, other benefits, disability payments, homeless, because you are a part of this society as much as anyone. The truth has become, along with freedom of speech, like a sack full of kittens thrown into the swamp. There is plenty of reactive, oppositional talk to every notorious and anti-humanitarian political lesson out there, but, sadly, we are trapped in what scientists might describe as a heat dome, trans...

More love, less anti-abortion, please

-
 Another anti-abortionist on the loose with a gun after shooting his enemies, proving once again that life ends, rather than begins, with conception, at the same time innocence does. The anti-abortionist philosophy breaks down after that into fragments of phony patriot, real racist, fake empathy regarding who outside of themselves is valuable, and which matters more, their belief that they represent their impotent god who, i think, once said, leave the fucking punishments to Me, and His son who said, love is better than anything else, or if not love, then, at least, compassion ( but leave the punishments to My Father). Or, in my words, quit forcing your own beliefs on anyone else. Don't say science proves conscious life begins at conception because the myth that mary conceived God's child. Believe what you want to believe but take your violence somewhere else, preferably home, wherever "heart" is. In an essay before this i said religion is behind what is wrong in the ...

Living in America is like being a child in a house

-
Living in America is like being a child in a house with many other siblings and a couple of abusive parents, where you think you're a little bit safer since there are 300 + million people, you're a alot less likely to be singled out because the chances you're going to be picked for retribution are a lot less. So you go along, ignore the sounds from the bedroom next to to you, and just hope and pray you'll be lucky this time. It's called the herd we live in but always, like the lottery, always a slim chance the predators will target you. Being an American means Israel can have atomic bombs but another sovereign nation can't have bombs because although Israel repeats it over and over and over again, Iran doesn't have a bomb, like Iraq didn't have a bomb, and would rather not have a bomb, because Americans have been told that Iranians are evil, not just a nation in conflict, like every other nation, like America, Iran is supposed to be controlled or allo...

A General Strike?

-
http://portside.org/2017-02-06/whose-strike THIS IS A GOOD PIECE,  A General Strike?  'GET SOBER FOLKS' . I'm interested in movement organizing strategy... lots of people discussing this topic right now.  If  the 9th Circuit does right, will Trump ignore the decision.....sort of Andy Jackson reborn from the Bank Fight and the Indian cases of the mid 1830s?   I watched the NPR show tonight on the Oklahoma bombing of 1995. Amazing how much force the cops used and the resources they had, which turned them all into boneheads on steroids who drove McVeigh nuts. 168 Dead! The way things are going, that Reichstag moment could come sooner than we may have anticipated.  Labor is too weak in numbers and political strength to lead the United Front, and the broader post Woman's March movement is too inchoate at this point to fully predict how it will emerge?  Yet, I'm optimistic.  I have visited or done a little work with a few different ...

Below, I am republishing something I ran across on internet while looking for co-operatives/collaborationst/ different types of community that I feel the alternative progressive world needs to endorse for any type of revolution. And Revolution is the key word here. How these (largely middle class) communities are organized or how they vote is not important here. This is an example of what needs to be done worldwide, the development of real sustained community un-reliant on state, national interests, like the quakers or other farming communities, such as Amish, without the reliance on religion or national politics for its internal organization. There is no doubt in my mind that unless we (progressives, anti-violence, freedom loving people) have to eat and we have to work, and we have to live in accordance with our values and beliefs and still leave room for those who don't share some of our values, BUT those natural divisions shouldn't interfere nor destroy social cohesion. And,...

The Universe

-
The universe looks pretty good from here. Why do we want to go mess everything up out there too? We just want to fick everything up. There's already a stratospheric layer of scrap metal and radioactive waste circling above us ready to fall anytime gravity says so. I know a few artists that would love to turn that into something more akin to art rather than leaving it chicken little artifice. The sky is falling. Or it will be. Trump. The Prince. Netanyahu may be the harbingers of evil we've been secretly waiting for but don't recognize until it's too late or all three have that stupid glazed look of ignorance and hate and crooked smiles to boot. If there's any Jew in America who is still thankful for the 1948 Accords that gave Israel a homeland and the reason to isolate themselves from the outside world with walls, there will be many neo fascists who will shake their hand for lending a helping hand in the biggest suicide mission in history outside of lemming biologi...

Extra- existential

-
lets see if I have this right. Climate change is an existential threat (from here on I'll abbreviate Existential Threat, ET). The United States is the one country that could initiate a solution to that ET and nothing was done for four years going on fifty years to affect that threat. Now, Iran is an ET as far as Israel is concerned. Israel has several dozen nuclear weapons. It wants to penetrate and destroy the deeply buried Fodrow Nuclear Facility and eliminate other potential uranium enrichment sites in Iran that has had nuclear power facilities as long as Israel. The whole question of the use of nuclear weapons (except Hiroshima and Nagasaki) is to threaten then use the weapons against the highest principles of self-defense-against what? - an ET. If every nation that has nuclear weapon technology is going to continue to stockpile them without developing a failsafe recognition of when they should be used, then what's the sense of having them? Thats a rhetorical question, mayb...
