Being a “boomer,” I have witnessed some, shall we say, interesting times: bearing witness to tumultuous events: The Cuban (American) Missile Crisis, the assassination of a president, a presidential candidate, a civil rights leader and multiple black liberation leaders.
Every night on the family TV, we saw Vietnam bloodily come and go.
We watched a man (apparently?) land on the moon.
As a senior in high school, we watched the Watergate hearings for our civic’s class—then we saw a president resign in disgrace.
Living in Los Angeles, we were “treated” to a panoply of “rockstar” serial killers, and the terror of who might be next.
Another seminal event in US/World history was the (s)election of the rotten regime of Bush/Cheney. Shortly thereafter: 9/11, the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and the tragic loss of so much life, including my own child.
As a U.S. history student, I was taught that even though the U.S.A. may have done some bad things (oy vey) in its relatively short history, it always had “good intentions.” If good intentions mean: massive planned destruction for massive profit, then, yeah, I guess.
Although I was not surprised at the institutional fascism of the Covid era, the speed with which it unveiled itself was a little disconcerting to me. Trump did us no good, but then Biden was ushered in to complete the devastation.
Today, I watch videos of random, yet vicious attacks—of all kinds of people attacking all kinds of other people.
Big, ape-like, hairy men with intact genitals are demanding instant execution for women who don’t want them in our safe spaces. But, misgendering and the need for security are now the “violent” actions. Read about Tommy/Tara below:
There are some large stores now that are putting 100% of their inventory behind locked plexi-glass doors which makes me wonder how people shop? This is all leading to the “cashless” society. “They” want people to shop online, have everything delivered, or have everyone pick up their orders in orderly, monitored, designated areas: “They” want to know EVERY STEP YOU TAKE; EVERY MOVE YOU MAKE; EVERY RISK YOU TAKE—-”They” ARE watching you. How can they track every single thing you purchase if you have the audacity to pay cash? How can they continue to build that file on you so you can be totally transformed from lowly citizen to Gold Star Consumer?
Have you ever tried to get someone in one of these stores to help you? Even in the best of times, it’s a hassle. Coming to a store near you very soon, will we get our own personal key holders to take us from aisle to aisle to help us unlock the door so we can buy a pair of socks, etc? The Robber Class (the 1%), who have been looting us and our ancestors for generations, are definitely reaping what they have sewn. I, also, imagine normalizing wearing face-masks has made it easier for people to ignore any semblance of order.
(Notice, the free access to junk on the right and corporate food on the left).
With the encouragement of shitlibs, the barely functioning Biden regime is making some very frightening foreign policy decisions that are inching the world closer, and closer, to all out global annihilation—but, this is just the beginning of the collapse.
So, Biden/Harris want to “finish the job.” What job? The job of completely destroying any semblance of a civil society? The job of completely crashing OUR economy to enrich those who are ALREADY unethically, and immorally wealthy? The job of total control over thought and public expression of those thoughts? The job of fostering a civil war between the masses, while they drink their Dom Perignon on their private jets??????
I, personally, don’t want to give Biden/Harris a chance to “finish the job,” but I know it’s not up to me, nor is it up to any voter: the fix is already in. Whether it’s Shits/Giggles2024, or anybody else, we need to unite here in the poor/working-classes to help cushion the hardships that such a collapse would incur, and are occurring, already.
We need to stop allowing “Them” to decide who our enemies are—”They” are our enemies—every single one of them, no matter what letter they put behind their names: D or R. We need to show “Them” that “They” are not the bosses of us and we can survive, and thrive, without “Them.”
Back during, what turned out to be (I predicted), a very destructive regime: Obama/Biden, I was already struggling with these questions: What gives “Them” the right to make life and death decisions for me? Only the consent of the governed keep them in power.
If we withdraw our consent to be governed by weirdos, pedos, murderers, thieves, and, people with marginal intelligence and limited faculties; we can open the door for sustainability, peace, and equality—a process that can be organically cultivated, not mandated from the top.
I get that a lot of people are excited about voting next year, and that’s fine, as long as we realize that it’s about the smallest, least effective thing we can do, because, as I have said before: the fix is in. It’s too easy to vote, but a little harder to stake our own claims to our own lives.
One of my paid subscriber bonuses is an ebook that I wrote in response to the Obama fraud in 2009, called: Myth America: The 20 Greatest Myths of the Robber Class and the Case for Revolution.
If we need ideas, or to elevate a discussion of a true grass-roots revolution of community well-being, I am going to release it to all subscribers today with its recent addendum: Myth 21: The Robber Class Cares about Your Health.
For what it’s worth.
We got this.

EUGENE DEBS WAS IMPRISONED BY THE WILSON REGIME BECAUSE HE SPOKE OUT AGAINST THE ENTRY OF THE U.S. INTO WWI—RAN FOR PRESIDENT FROM PRISON AND RECEIVED ONE-MILLION VOTES.
Cindy and subscribers, I'm sure you've all heard the latest Media/Political purge >Tucker Carlson:
"Democrat RFK Jr. Says Tucker Carlson Is 'Breathtakingly Courageous' in Wake of Fox News Departure
RFK Jr., who just last week launched his 2024 campaign for the Democratic nomination for president, suggested that Carlson's Fox News exit came because of the host's recent monologue about pharmaceutical companies"

Biden is clearly the pHARMa puppet, so he will be re-installed: https://www.opensecrets.org/industries/recips.php?ind=h04&recipdetail=A&sortorder=U&mem=Y&cycle=2020
I'm about your age. I remember the horrors of the assassinations , the Vietnam War, Watergate etc. very clearly. I had a silly notion that we might have learned from all the madness but instead, things have gotten progressively worse. I'm at the point where I think it must all come crumbling down and there won't be a way to cushion the shock.
