“It’s time to debate with facts – Not assertions”

When New York Gov. Kathy Hochul bragged about a 140% increase in illegal gun seizures – she meant that if it was expressed it as a percentage of the illegal guns that are still out there: you would laugh in her face. And Hochul’s election timed announcement of a 12% decrease in gun violence does nothing to help the thousands of victims and their families.

Politicians talk a lot of shit — It’s time to rub their faces in it.

Full disclosure – Full exposure.

“Smug as a thug on a drug”

Humility is a no-show in today’s self-inflated society: where greed, ambition, and arrogance combine to make a name for people who would have had a very different name in the past.

When the only crime is not getting what you want – victims are just collateral at the waterhole.

“Let’s share what we’ve got of yours . . .”

“We can share what we got of yours, ’cause we done shared all of mine” — Grateful Dead. “Jack Straw”

While much is made of sharing out Social Security and the benefits of a lifetime of toil – we are living in a time that is notably lacking in togetherness and empathy.

Once we pass the threshold of our giving; we reach a deserted plateau indifference – where even the cries of our COVID “die off” are sucked into non-existence.

Our sharing is a Millennial Judgement – the expiation of some kind of Doctrinal “Original Sin” – a giving of tribute: a recognition of superiority.

Maybe their sharing would reduce their perfection by some small amount – or acknowledgement of us would make them unclean.

They won’t even share the time to try to understand.

“The World According to Doctrine” — “Dear Politicians”

“Dear Politicians”

The froth of unhappiness and discord that rises to the top of every issue is a product of the divisive politics of our time. Politicians use hate, fear, and envy to pry apart communities into voting blocks – more concerned with getting themselves elected; than the welfare of the electorate.

Ruling over a society in turmoil only increases their chances acquiring more power and control. Divide and conquer is as old as ambition.

The new millennium is so naïve: they believe they’re different. We’re making a history that will serve as a cautionary tale — if we live that long.

“State of the Union 2023”

Unlike the 60’s – today’s social upheaval is not fueled by the recognition that everybody is deserving of human respect and worth — but by a self-serving denial of that truth.

Our social policies are 180 degrees away from the beliefs of people like Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr — and are excused with the rhetoric that doing evil to some; will bring about good for all.

It’s not a belief that builds and nurtures -– it’s a rioting mob that destroys; and uses the violence of that destruction to protect the looters and intimidate their victims.

These New School Nazis have adopted all the old Nazi paradigms of “place by race” and reinterpreted historical postulates.

The biggest irony could be – that all this mindless looting and hate filled taking is in the shadow of our extinction.

There are no U-Hauls to Heaven – or to Hell . . . or to the event horizon.

Welcome to the Future — this way to the Exit . . . for everybody.

“The World According to Doctrine” — “Sustainability: Meeting the needs of . . .”

“Sustainability: Meeting the needs of . . .”

What does “sustainability” mean? It’s too useful and too usable a word not to have been stretched out and fancied-up to cover everything possible. “Sustainable” sounds like a solution – even if it’s not. “Sustainable” is keeping to the same story – as long as the facts don’t come out. “Sustainable” is taking less fish – in a massive dying off. “Sustainable” is doing too little – until it’s too late.
