Here’s a meme that made me smile.
Like all humor, it’s rooted in truth. Depending on how sensitive you are to the needs of other human beings, the ultra-right-wing political climate in Florida might make life very difficult for you.
The situation is similar here in this rural part of Central California, in that there are plenty of rednecks. Is that a burden? Nothing terrible. As someone told me the other day, I’m fine as long as they’re not holding rallies.
Through court records, we now know that the Fox News executive team and on-camera personnel knew that Trump’s claims of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election were “complete bullshit.”
Think for a moment how vile these people are (if you weren’t aware of it already). They knowingly misled tens of millions of gullible but otherwise guiltless people into believing that the entirety of America’s democratic processes is corrupt. (more…)
As time passes, and unregulated capitalism tightens its grasp on our civilization, certain organizations that formerly served and protected us have become nothing more that mechanisms for highly profitable industries to make even more money– at the expense of the people they formerly defended.
As suggested here, the NRA is one such example.
Here’s a short video describing how wind farms are built.
Its producer says that renewable energy is required because “we’re running out of fossil fuels.” Completely wrong. There is so much coal in Wyoming, for instance, that hikers have to be careful not to trip over it.
As most people know, the issue is that the release of CO2, methane, and an array of toxic chemicals, is ruining our atmosphere and our oceans.
When we think of slavery in our modern world, many of us, understanding as we do that the institution is illegal in every sovereign country on Earth, assume that it no longer exists. Sadly, that’s not true; it’s estimated that are somewhere between 40 and 50 million people, spread around the globe, who are held against their will and forced to work.
I’m on the board of directors of a group called Slave Free Today, whose purpose is to eliminate slavery and forced labor from our home planet. The group plays a key role in collecting and providing information to governments and the many NGOs that are involved in bringing this change about.
It’s possible that 2GreenEnergy readers may be in a position to help, via connecting me to folks who may be writing papers on relevant subjects. Here’s a “call for submissions.“
If you’re wondering how it’s possible for the Republicans who are trying to dismantle Social Security and Medicare to remain viable candidates for re-election, it’s explained in the meme here. They are simply lying to mainstream audiences.
Politicians have been lying since the dawn of time, but today’s GOP has taken this tradition to an entirely new level.
Ha!
In truth, however, she’s not going to buy just any s***.
It needs to be something that could be believed to protect her against the socialist nation that the radical left is working so hard to fashion our country into.
This can include guns, survival equipment (especially portable generators), or bibles.
More likely, these fellas are asking for campaign contributions to elect congresspeople who will Make America Great Again, by banning abortion, removing LGBTQ rights, destroying public education, building a wall on the southern border, and ensuring that fossil fuels are used in perpetuity.
Of course, the single most obvious topic here is Trump 2024, and that means preventing the commies from prosecuting Trump for fraud, tax evasion, extortion, seditious conspiracy, stealing classified documents, and treason.
The meme here is from a reader whose point is that Nikki Haley switches positions on important topics as easily as the wind shifts directions.
Hate to say it, but: obviously.
This forms an interesting dichotomy between her and politicians like Bernie Sanders, whose position of things like abortion rights, universal healthcare, quality education, etc., will not change a millimeter, regard of public opinion.
Most Americans, and to a lesser degree, most living in the rest of the world, are frustrated by how long it’s taken the U.S. justice system to arrest Donald Trump for one (or several) of the crimes he committed while in office, or especially, in the period of time post the election during which he tried in earnest to overthrow the United States federal government.
Are we close to getting into the “car chase seen,” as suggested here? Maybe.
Robert Heinlein was one of the “big three” American science fiction writers of the 20th Century, along with Arthur C. Clark and Isaac Asimov. Like so many others of my (baby-boomer) generation, I loved his Stranger in a Strange Land.
On many matters, however, I disagree with him; at left is one.
Until recently, elementary school text books made it clear to young readers that the United States was a “melting pot,” meaning that immigrants from all around the globe could come here looking for a better life. Of course, that was not a guarantee that all would be immediately accepted–quite to the contrary. (more…)
