Here’s The Damn Thing S1:E1

jamie

I been around for awhile and
Here’s The Damn Thing…
“Nobody owes you anything”
So they say.
Well, I DISAGREE.
We owe each other kindness by default.
We owe one another Human Decency.
Acceptance. The opportunity to be who they are, without expectations. Without exceptions.
Everyone.

Look, I can accept that people have different points of views. We should still be able to get along. War and crime exist because gross inequalities prevent some people from having what they NEED to survive. This is a choice the rest of us have made.
We choose to go to war to protect borders which exist to divide, instead of using our great wealth to share the bounty we’ve been fortunate to receive. A handful of people use their power to extract resources, and grow more powerful and wealthy doing so.

There is nothing wrong with profit. I am not a communist. But with great wealth comes great responsibility. If that wealth is practically unlimited, and you choose to keep extracting, rather than giving back enough to ensure ALL the less fortunate are not suffering, you are a just a cruel fucking human being.
It IS your responsibility. You can’t just leave the homeless to suffer. The children hungry or sick. In your own country. In other countries. Does it matter?
You have BILLIONS and all you can think about is making MORE MONEY, taking away basic necessities from the poor. Medicine. Food. Shelter. Clothing. These things should NEVER be denied to any human being.

There are more than enough resources to feed everyone in the world. But humanity chooses to spend those resources building bombs to lob at each other from our warplanes, ships and tanks instead.
Billions spent fighting over oil, rather than feeding people, or harnessing clean, free energy from the sun. We allow a few to amass huge fortunes, exploiting millions of people for their labors while paying them as little as possible for their work.
It’s become tragically laughable that more people aren’t outraged. That billionaires are treated like celebrities, when they should be ashamed to show their faces in public.


YOU FUCKERS could DO something about the problems we all actually care about. But you CHOOSE NOT TO.


Billionaires should be ashamed, (not afraid, and I stress that, NOT afraid), of showing their faces in public. The paparazzi should expose their excesses in shame, rather than celebrating their conquest of other human beings.


Because you don’t become a billionaire by paying people what they are worth. You don’t stay a billionaire by giving enough back. At least not until all the problems are solved. Millions should enough for you. For anyone.

Capitalism without a conscience is just tyranny by the elite.

Occupied Amerika Day 163

jamie

Life in Occupied Amerika. S.N.A.F.U. Day 163.
Seems Normal. Except for the masked secret police in combat gear, snatching brown people off the streets without evidence or trial, and shipping them off to Alligator Auschwitz, Africa or Guatemala.
STILL some of you are acting like this is all perfectly normal. How?!
It’s all fine with you? Then FUCK YOU!


No. Nothing is fine here in America. If you aren’t raging against the propaganda machine, you ARE the problem.


This is a hostile takeover by the billionaire class. They are deploying military units against the American People, in attempt to teach us to behave. To fear them. To be quiet, while they bleed our nation dry. They are counting on you to be good little sheep. They should know better.


Ultimately, they will FAIL. Because, Americans don’t behave. And we don’t want fake morality shoved down our throats by these whores and thieves.
The oppressors are few, and weak, when their money can’t buy our silence. We will never bow to kings, of state nor industry.

We are many, and fiercely strong when we stand together. That’s why they try to split us up, red and blue. White and Brown. Left and right. Any way they can. But we all love freedom. And sooner or later, troops and tanks roll down the streets firing upon citizens, and then everyone knows the truth.


This is a disgusting breach of the Constitution, of law, and the rights of The People. We must stand against the billionaires and demand our government back. Stand Up For Our Rights. Plain and simple.


Fuck their Blue and Red bullshit. We’re pissed, and we’re coming for you. For our country back.

Patriots

jamie

I’m not a subversive
I’m a patriot.

Anyone can wave the flag
While denying the rights to others
Guaranteed by The Constitution.
They can call that patriotism,
but it’s obviously a lie.
Anyone can order troops into the streets
To terrorize the citizens of the
second largest city in the country.
It’s not patriotic to deny citizens their 1st amendment right to protest and object to an unjust government.
That is not American. It’s illegal here.


Patriotism isn’t fealty to one man
Patriots don’t give a FUCK about party lines
Patriots believe in the law
Patriots believe in the rights of citizens
And non citizens
To live without government oppression
True Americans believe in freedom
Freedom means we get to choose
How we live
Who we love
What we worship.

We get to decide where we live and where we go. Americans, and visitors here, get to live without fear of illegal police detainment, searches and worse.

THIS BULLSHIT is NOT AMERICA.
Masked secret police doing the bidding of their political masters is NOT AMERICAN. This is some Soviet Nazi type bullshit folks.

These people in charge are NOT patriots
They hug the flag while ignoring
The Highest Laws of the Land.
They celebrate cruelty, not justice

The insurrection has succeeded
Our Capitol has fallen into the hands
Of traitors and TREASONISTS
Religious bigots and billionaire bullies.
Privateers. Plundering the Treasury.

Thugs and thieves stealing our money and our private information. To be used against us if we speak out.
They are destroying our peaceful way of life, with lies of invasions and crime.
Just excuses to use military force
Against The American People.
Who dare to protest the abuses
By a corrupt and toxic regime.

The invaders are in power
The Crimes are happening
Right before our eyes
Committed upon The People
By a corrupt and invalid government.
Purchased by billionaires.
Operating of, by and for, absolute greed and the extortion of the American People.

The True Patriots are speaking out against this illegal hostile takeover.
True American Patriots are standing up to the treasonous fools, who are out to destroy everything we have, just so they can drain every ounce of value, from the planet and it’s occupants.

Extract. Exploit. Discard.
The rest of us pay for their excess
The rest of us pay for their egos
The rest of us pay for their lack of compassion.
We suffer their lack of empathy.
We pay with our lives.
With the lives of our children.

If you aren’t working AGAINST them, you are helping them. You are aiding and abetting the criminals, who are out to harm all of us. You are one of them.

Silence in the face of injustice is complicity

Today’s solution 5-9-25

jamie

A lot of government grants go to businesses that make a profit. Some, profit directly from grants that enable those profits, and aside from any corporate taxes, those profits go back to the shareholders of the company or university doing the research. The taxpayer gets nothing. Zero. And we’re talking about billions of dollars in government grants and contracts.

If the research was done using government funds, the people should benefit. Whether it’s universities or big-pharma. Space exploration, internet app, or satellite communications. If taxpayers kicked in to help you create it, we deserve our share of the pie.

Profits from any research funded by the government should be distributed directly back to the people whose taxes paid for it.

If government funds were 50% of total funding, the people should get 50% of the profits. Apply this to drug research. Space exploration or energy research. Or ANY grant recipient.

How do the people get paid back? Profits get put into a budget that MUST be used for direct public assistance. A monthly paycheck paid directly to every citizen, prioritized inversely by income level.

When there are no more poor people, the rich get a bigger share of the funds. When everyone is wealthy, the rich get 100% of the benefits. When everyone wins, we all win.

Look, ‘Trickle-Down’ is a lie. We know that. When the poor have more, they spend more, and the rich will make more profits selling it to them. Everyone wins.

Starving people by continual, planned inflation without corresponding wage growth, in order to make an extra 2% profit per year is pure stupid. Don’t even get me started with gouging and price fixing. The wealthy have many tricks to transfer wealth from YOU to THEM. It’s evil. People suffer and die because of their bottom line.

In the end, no one can afford to buy anything, and no one wins but a few overpaid fat cat profiteers, hiding behind the faceless corporations that run our lives. The middle class disappears, and just about everyone feels like they are struggling.

Sound familiar?

America is Coming Out

jamie

At least now the United States will have a President who accurately represents the American Republic. Trump is not a symptom of American decline, but the result of it. A criminal. Mobster. Abuser of rights. Plunderer of resources.

He personifies all the worst things America does. No filter.

America has been an imperial power since WWII. Buying or taking whatever we want. Under cover story of stopping communism, we’ve invaded Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and more. If we can’t win using economic warfare, like tariffs and corporate invasions, we send in the marines.

All of it “to protect vital interests”.
Like big oil and gas profits, and ensuring infinite future profits for the weapons industry.

Sold to the highest bidder. Everything is for sale. Except for peace. We sell weapons to both sides to ensure that unrest continues in the world, because a world without warfare is much harder to exploit for profit and power.

All the unrest and violence in the world also enables a nearly $1T per year military budget, further ensuring the profits and stabilty of weapon manufacturers…and their ever growing stock prices (=huge profits for the rich and shameless).

But good news…we’ve finally come out as a country. Now, our president will be a mob boss. No more hiding, pretending to do good.

Hey world: It’s who we really are. The Home of Monopolies and Organized Crime, The Land of the Deceived.

All that “protect the peace” and “promote democracy” BS is just the cover story. Again and again we make the rest of the world “an offer they can’t refuse”. Our words are backed by aircraft carriers, stealth bombers and nukes. Who’s gonna argue? Who’s gonna be the first next to get fed up, and decide to fight back?

I guess we’re gonna find out. And soon.

Authors Note: All opinions expressed here are just that: opinions. If you don’t like mine, I probably won’t like yours either. Let’s just nod, and walk away. Maybe come back with solutions instead of opinions. Because of the two, only solutions actually matter.

Upstate NY

jamie

Upstate NY…the part we live in is actually part of Appalachia. It’s not actually as bad as the Simpsons say, and somehow, red and blue voters have always been able to get along in the past. The truth is that everyone you ask cares about the same things.

“We’re headed to the one place that will never decline, because it was never that great. Upstate New York.”

Self Care

jamie

For the record, if it sounds like I’ve lost my sense of humor, I have. There is nothing funny about any of this, and I’m keeping my head down and remaining on full defense. Call it Self Care. It’s not paranoia if they ARE out to fuck you. Trust me, they are out to fuck us. Most of us.



The next few years are going to be unlike anything we’ve ever experienced. People we know and love will die. Women. Children. Trans kids. Refugees. Journalists who dare report the truth.
All Unnecessarily.

People are going to lose their freedom for standing up for what is right, against a completely corrupted government with zero tolerance for dissent. There will be protests in the streets, and violence when Trump sends the military against the protestors. I’ll keep speaking out, like this. Until it becomes too dangerous, or they come for someone I know. Then it’s war.

Simply put, if you aren’t on the right side of history, I don’t need you in my life. On social media and real life. Friends. Family. ANYONE. If you’re still cluelessly sitting on the fence, YOU ARE on the wrong side. I might try to school ya, but only if it doesn’t cause me too much stress and pain. It’s easier to block and ignore.
Like I said: Self care.

This is a hill I will die on, figuratively, but also literally if they come for people I care about. If you didn’t vote, voted 3rd party, voted for Trump, you are on your own. Because you voted to hurt people. This isn’t just about political party, it’s about morality. It isn’t just politics. This is basically America’s moment of Truth. Our own little custom Armageddon, and ironically, the Church is on the wrong side. Maybe it’s because they aren’t reading their Bibles. Or maybe they are, and they’re actively working with the Orange Anti-Christ to make it a reality…to force Jesus to come back or some dumbass bs.
Don’t misunderstand me. I’m not getting all religious. I do believe in a greater power, but i don’t think Jesus is coming to save us. I think we need to save ourselves. I’m just pointing out the obvious similarities between Revelations and Reality here, while knowing there are other, more tangible explanations for them.

Look. Above all, this is about defending myself, the people I love, and all the good people who value the Truth, from harm. Keeping the pain as far away as possible.

It hurts to talk to certain family members. So I don’t. I won’t.  That’s the simple truth. They’ve become immoral and represent everything I detest about America. About Humanity. I may love them, but I have no room for that negative energy in my life. No room at all. It just brings me pain. And right now, I’m not looking for that in my world.

You know what I’m about to say.
Self care.
