Yeah, it was shitty to assassinate an American citizen like that.  It is a whole lot shittier though, that our drones have killed tens if not hundreds of thousands of people who never did a damn thing against us.  That was already being done though, by massive economic sanctions that prevented Iraqis from getting even IV bags.

I think the law is kind of screwy when it comes to gig jobs.  There aren’t much (if any?) real labor protections or regulations in place to protect employees.  In my twenties, I had a few… some paid considerably less than minimum wage – and I don’t know if that was legal or not, but I agreed to it back then.  These weren’t jobs that had any co…[Read more]

LOL.  You know, the harder they lie about this shit, the more ridiculous they become… the more it actually helps us – and Bernie.  It would be one thing if it was hearsay – but like OB pointed out – we have the fucking receipts.

@robotx

Yep.  Harsh justice.  I am not a fan of the death penalty… but I cannot even conceive of how psychologists… who are supposed to be trained to study and heal the human mind… could ever have been brought into such a thing.  I would not propose hanging them, but locking them up for the remainder of their lives in medical in…[Read more]

Not quite yet – at least, not in the numbers it will be.  I think we are at the beginning of a vicious breakdown of the system.  As/if time goes by with little or no change, I believe the things I spoke of are inevitable.  That need not be the case though.  Humanity… a lot of us, at least, have to acknowledge hard truths.  That we h…[Read more]

Unless someone does something about it, there will be very few retirees after the boomers.  Consider the credit card, medical and student loan debt.  Consider the various ways this effects your credit.  The costs of medication, rent, surgery, car payments (average over 400 now, I believe).

We are being conned, scammed – and indebted to the en…[Read more]

Odd how hard she is working to prove that she is exactly what many of us have been saying she is all along.  A corrupt, ignorant, greedy, hateful chickenhawk.

Bernie is pissing off all the right people.  Just makes me love him more.

Yep, a total fucking asshole and disgrace to the human race- just like that motherfucker Duque.  With someone so obviously a violent, corrupt, greedy and hateful piece of shit warmonger… it is hard to understand how a large number of people who call themselves Christian see him as such.

Okay, well, maybe not really.  Many of them are filled w…[Read more]

My hope is that Bernie can inspire others, that he will be part of the puzzle of resolving climate change.  It will require a great deal of sacrifice and struggle.  Still, a Sanders victory could give hope to many others with the right ideas about what needs to happen.

I know things cannot continue as they are – that population r…[Read more]

Heh.  It might matter if they mattered.

@ohiobarbarian

Amen.  I am reminded of my vague recollections of one of Gandhi’s (recorded) speeches.  Something about how thousands cannot rule over millions.  In this case, its a few hundred trying to rule over 300 million – not to mention their global interests.  Yep, one way or another, they are coming down – and I believe we can all have the…[Read more]

@ohiobarbarian

Keep the faith man, I honestly believe Bernie is going to win 2020.  None of their dirty tricks are working – and that, more than anything else, gives me hope.  Our numbers are growing.

Don’t be surprised – in fact, expect a great deal more of this from corporate media.  As the threat of a Sanders nomination/presidency grows, so, too, will their attacks on him AND his supporters.  If they cannot discredit him, they will try to discredit us.  If they cannot poison people against him personally, they will poison people against hi…[Read more]

“I endorse both of them.”

Why?  I can understand liking some of the policies that both have/proposed – but as far as I am concerned, Warren stabbed Bernie in the back, acted without honor, respect, or anything resembling decency.  It is one thing to support a candidate based on policy alone – usually we don’t have a choice, but when t…[Read more]

Assange will almost certainly die in prison.  Maybe there, maybe here in the U.S.  On the off chance that he doesn’t, I can only imagine the kind of psychological problems he will return to anything resembling “freedom” with.  Frankly, if we needed a sign that the corrupt, global oligarchy had already won the war… this is a pretty damn big on…[Read more]

@ohiobarbarian

They are counting on the public being too ignorant to pick up on that.

Nine times out of ten,when they use the words “national security” they are lying their asses off.

Plenty to impeach Trump over – but, yeah, this is bull shit.

Warren’s actions make such “unity” impossible for me.  Abandoning Medicare for all cost her any chance at my vote, but lying about Bernie cost her any respect I might still have had for her.

There may in time come a worthy coalition of left wing groups, but not through “unity” with the corrupt.  The Warren campaign and CNN went out if their way t…[Read more]

My left eye just twitched while I was looking at my girlfriend – or was that a wink?  I crossed my arms over my chest when I was outside – was I feeling defensive, or was it just fucking cold?  Most movements have a wide variety of interpretations.  To even learn of a genuine “tell”, it either needs to be extremely obvious, or you have to be fa…[Read more]
