Tax-revolt against SCOTUS decision in Brown v Little Rock BoEd led to school closings & vouchers - & to Buchanan’s creation of ‘libertarian’ (feudal) political economics among many other elements of the current madness
Read Democracy in Chains. It’s important
@jimstewartson Wasn't the pushback against liberalism kickstarted by James Buchanan, economist, in the 1950s? Documented in Nancy MacLean's book 'Democracy in Chains'.
A group of messianic psychopaths is trying to rig evolution to permanently provide themselves dictatorial power. Let me explain…
Around 30 years ago, humans added a crucial evolutionary adaptation—a way to communicate and access remote data at near light speed. The internet is evolution at work. At this point, for a majority of humanity, “digital life” is no longer just a “sixth sense,” it creates a significant part of the way we perceive reality.
In Darwinian evolution, every minor change to the design has to happen through random genetic fluctuations that are selected for how adaptive they are to survivability. This takes numerous generations.
The internet accelerated the rate of evolutionary change by orders of magnitude. But our brains have had no time to physically evolve to the exponential rate of change in the way we perceive reality—and never will. We have a permanent gap between technology and biology.
In effect, we are a post-Darwinian species at this point. We are driving our own evolution.
The struggle we’re currently experiencing is ultimately a war for the way we’re going to evolve as a species and the internet is the battlespace. That’s why it is so important to understand the true purpose of people like Mike Flynn, Peter Thiel (and mini-me Mark Zuckerberg), Robert Mercer, David Koch, Steve Bannon, Erik Prince, Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk.
These twelve men have been working together, in various configurations, for many years. They have different resources and skills to bring to the table, and a variety of ideologies and motivations that drive them. But they share a common project. The shared project of these twelve men is the elimination of liberal democracy as a viable form of governance…
These are highly intelligent messianic narcissists who are also clinical psychopaths. They intentionally designed “social media” and parasitic networks to give themselves the tools to rig evolution, and then they rigged it.
The “algorithm” at Facebook, Cambridge Analytica/Palantir/Gloo data mining, the cult-creation platform of Twitter, Google providing instant access to disinformation and the ability to monetize it—all of this was designed to end up where we are.
Social media is a massive system to change the way humanity works. A way to rig evolution.
Of course, the big problem is that this system is not for everyone’s use. The people who built it, the oligarchs, want to use it for themselves to get richer and more powerful—and they have, at a global scale.
We’re being systematically stripped of our human emotions, our empathy, our ability to care for others—because it serves the purpose of men who were born that way.
In short, our system has allowed a group of aberrant psychopaths to change the way people think. They’ve used our new ability to connect with each other as an attack surface to erase our humanity.
The psychological war we’re currently experiencing is ultimately a war for the future of whether we are to remain human. Are we going to sacrifice our humanity to be cogs in a system created by evil men, or are we going to rid ourselves of this cancer and be people again?

I understand why the WI Supreme Court did not issue an injunction against Musk for vote buying-- it was too close to the election, and too easy to have it seen as a political decision. That was then. Now: time to bring charges for vote buying.
Trump is driving the world to a global depression -and destruction of all US influence - using powers delegated to him by Congress. Congress could recall those powers and save everyone from the disaster Trump is determined to inflict
@mccaffreyr3 Trump negotiated the withdrawal and released 5000 Taliban fighters to ensure it was going to be chaotic. If someone is responsible for it…
I see a lot of “Ladies, no one has to know who you voted for” posts and ads.
I’d like to say: Ladies, if you’re with someone you have to hide your vote from, they don’t deserve to have relational proximity to you and you should strongly consider an alternative.
I’d also like to say: Guys, if you’re voting for a sexual assaulter and/or intimidating or bullying a woman into doing the same, you’re a lousy man and a shitty human being.
He said he would invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport illegal immigrants if he is elected to the White House. "We gotta go back to 1798!" FINALLY, he reveals the last time he thought America was actually great: When slavery was legal & women couldn't vote. #BelieveHim
I'm running for Congress because I believe our county can't afford another two years of Marjorie Taylor Greene and her daily antics in Congress and spewing hate and conspiracies on national TV every day.
Marge must go.
@krassenstein Ok yes Trump can’t manage $h!t without a threat or mentally deranged thought but the real truth is Trump is a LIAR
I hate when he says he doesn’t know someone He knows full well who that man is and what he was going to do and say This is the BS Americans are exhausted with
I’m not going to sit here and say I love Liz Cheney with all my heart— but it’s absolutely bullshit that she’s out there for the most part standing alone because men like Mitt Romney and George Bush don’t have the courage to stand up for the constitution.
If Larry Hogan is elected, he’ll give Republicans a majority and be a rubber stamp for the MAGA agenda.
In a race this tight, we need to boost our efforts to spread our message that Angela is the candidate who will represent ALL of us. Will you chip in to help us fight back?
