DNA doesn’t Lie. There is NO GENE for RACE. We Are All One Race. HUMAN.
Descrimination because of how someone looks, is just HATE.
When we embrace our differences, we grow. We must not let fear of what we do not understand rule our lives. Everyone has their own perspective. The more we choose to understand and respect the perspective of others, the faster we grow and the stronger we become. Together.
Against all who would exploit and deprive us, of what we need to survive, in order to profit from our inability to choose.
We CAN choose. We must choose.
We must choose each other, not the rich and shameless. Equity, not exploitation. Freedom, not forced religion and journalistic propaganda. Education for all. Medicine for all.
America’s Most Trusted News Channel: The Weather Channel
This just in… journalism is officially dead. Long live network propaganda. The only news you need is the weather.
Now shut up and get back to work making money for your corporate overlords. Or else.

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.
Capitalism is survival of the fittest. Dog eat dog. Caveat emptor. Profits and power are the cornerstone of the elite class, a self made royalty in a society that measures value and worth by the dollar and acre.
In contrast, most of us ordinary people see the importance of the common good. We recognize the inherent value in taking care of everyone, not just the ones who would kill and eat everyone else in order to ensure their own survival. As human beings, adopting degrees of Socialism is the acknowledgement that we’ve transcended to those higher places. It’s evolution of the species, to a new place, where we learn take care of our own. ALL of them, even if they don’t look like us or speak our tongue.
Socialism doesn’t mean everyone gets an equal share, like in communism. Instead, socialism seeks to ensure that everyone gets an equal chance, and less lives are wasted. Even a capitalist should be able to grok the concept of less waste. Isn’t prevention of wasted human potential just as important as protecting human life itself? Our society should be made up of haves and have-mores, instead of haves and have-nots. The rich can still get richer. They just can’t do it by exploiting people to the point of sickness, starvation and homelessness. THAT sounds like Humanism to me…and shouldn’t we ALL be humanists? #HumanityFirst ~jg

Here we are. Day 100 of COVID-19 lockdown…give or take. Over 100,000 dead and growing. Suddenly no one cares. All eyes and screens are on day 8 of protests and riots, police brutality, primed by the racist killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis’ Finest. It’s also 1231 days since Donald Jerkoff Trump began destroying the government and suspending civil rights wherever it suits him. Unfortunately, Trump still matters. Making things worse is his specialty, sowing polarity and divisions between us, he has now pushed us too far, to where most of us now stand together. Together, against Trump. Against the corruption and self-serving ego driven lust for power that defines him and his revolving door goon squad.
Everything he stands for is SHIT, a fraudulent copy of the real thing that is NOTHING resembling reality. His lies and ignorance are tearing the country apart, even as they tear down our institutions of justice and government. Our very republic is in jeopardy. Our democracy is being held hostage by the lies of a dictator who thinks nothing of using our troops to threaten the rights of American citizens, but was too big a pussy to serve in the ranks himself. Too good for the armed forces, he got Daddy to pay for a doctor’s note out of Vietnam for ‘bone spurs’.
Such a Loser. I just puked in my mouth a little. But hey it’s just 152 days until we get to vote him out. Assuming we have an election. Assuming he leaves after he loses. Assuming a LOT. Meanwhile, Moscow Mitch is helping him stack the courts against liberal judges and thwart any attempt at actual social justice, as the wholly corrupt GOP clings to the Senate and Presidency, both of which are surely in play this November…no matter what bullshit you hear on TV.
You know, Trump is not wrong about some things. He’s also not right about ANYTHING. But there’s a grain of truth in his “fake news” accusations. He’s blind to the same at Fox and Friends, but ALL the networks are fucking complicit. CNN and MSNBC are almost as much a part of the problem. PPP ‘Pure Political Propaganda’ networks Fox News and OAN maybe a bit worse, but almost every bit of news we get on TV, in print, or on the Web is twisted by spin doctors looking to maximize viewers and ad revenue, rather than providing accurate reports of the actual news, the unbiased Truth, without spin. No fluff. No peacocking it to sell ad time.
You gotta search hard for true journalists. True journalism. Like Edward R Murrow. Walter Cronkite. If you can find them at all.
If it’s not facts in evidence, it isn’t news. I really don’t care what you ‘think it means’ because I can think myself. Unless you KNOW what it means, STFU. Just show the pictures and describe what you see. That’s the job.
The day I see 24 hour, Ad-Free, unbiased fact based news reporting, I will stop bitching. Until then, all you 3 Letter Networks get your shit together and stop fanning the fucking fires of division, and maybe I’ll stop using 4 Letter words about you. ~jg
