We give billions to other countries, billions to corporations, Wall Street even, than out people die because of no healthcare. Our government spends every penny it gets, give tax cuts to the wealthy, corporations paying 18% now, raid SS, borrow money, than holler they have to cut social programs to balance the budget. Anyway, I do have a dark sense of humor, George is the only one who’s ever been able to tell a rape joke and it be funny because it was so true.

[@therealcanadianrageyt4595]

@@prernarawat8443 I agree Third wave feminism is antithetical to anything to do with equal rights and empowering women. I don't identify as a feminist, but I do have respect for people like Cristina Hoff Summers and I do respect strong, intelligent women (My mother is one after all and my Father is my hero.) Third wave feminism contradicts itself; and thus, as a movement--falls flat on it's gender fluid, non-binary, gender pronoun having ass. It operates under the guise of strength and equality for women and at the same time; wants special treatment and like every woman should be treated like delicate flowers, with tender fragile peddles. Well, which one is it? because too opposing forces cannot occupy the same space harmoniously. These snowflakes are so flimsy; that any person, be they man or woman, who comes forward and challenges the ideology, threatens the very foundation and so; they quiver in their boots and rather than defend their position--they have to resort to mob mentality tactics: Smear campaigns, trying to get people fired, fabricating bullshit. What a bunch of pussies. Didn't anybody ever tell these pricks that there are no such things as "safe spaces?" The world,for all of it's beauty, mystery and wonder; is also harsh, at times cruel and can be brutal. Not to drag this on: but there are documentaries out there about plants and other elements of nature that can and do, very easily kill people; that sort of throws that whole, living spiritually with nature and all that into question--to me, anyway. This goes for our modern society too: it can be a harsh place. As a kid: one of the things I was taught was respect and that it is something that is earned: you don't just give it out by default.; so perhaps the whole idea of "safe spaces, without exception-is totally the wrong approach (of course it is) It is more a matter of respect, earned through action and communication. I'm a physically handicapped person, with cerebral palsy myself and one of the things I really hate about this PC BS: is transablism. People who intentionally cripple themselves because of how they "feel." Most people don't even understand their feelings, to begin with. I think there is a distinction between feelings and emotions: an emotion is a state of being, while the feeling is an objective expression of that state and one is in correspondence with the other: it's like a feedback loop. Much like a lot of language; people use terms, without always understanding what they mean or the origin. Just like we have drug addicts and alcoholics-people are not encouraged to enable them; yet some doctors, have actually carried out these transabled procedures. You want to talk about somebody being an enabler of illness? Ironic isn't it, given the Hippocratic oath. Using is something that I do because I have to and I'll probably always have to. I'm cool with it; it's a lifelong thing; but it isn't something I'd wish on anyone else; not even my enemies. If you think it's easy, you gotta another thing comin'. It doesn't discriminate either; black, white, gay, straight, male, female, human or animal. It can happen to anyone. And when it does: there's no going back. Still, these transabled people are being encouraged to intentionally cripple themselves. Fuck off! As long as that's being allowed though; I say bring on the trans-humanism, bring on the nanomachines that can repair damaged tissue and organs, allow stem cell therapies to help the paralyzed to walk. Besides, allot of these kooks today, like to sing the praises of abortion-almost like it's a trivial subject. I saw one you tube video, where a fat woman said: "I'm going to have 10 or 20 abortions." Well, holy shit! No values, no morals, no empathy. Just narcissistic, self-entitled, self-serving, psychopathic bullshit. I should stop; but I could go on and on about this type of stuff. SJW's like to take minorities and use them; to further an agenda and in doing so: they tarnish or damage those minorities: they are not a voice for them. Sjw's poison and taint everything they touch. If they all, stood around the Grand Canyon, held hands and jumped in at the count of 3; how many people would be sad, I've wondered? Relax, that's called humor, it's the visual you get in your mind that's humor; a bunch of PC robots, standing around, holding hands, singing some song, before they all jump. They are a cult after all. Look, I get it: this is this generation's "revolution"-but I worry fourty years from now; when they real feel the brunt of what could happen. I know they consider themselves to be like flower children or something; but they ain't. They're being manipulated and used by Globalists and they don't even realize it. I didn't want to believe in a Globalist conspiracy: Well, fuck me! We see more and more of it, with every passing day.

The usual reaction to an American from us non Americans

[@HowToHomeLife]

I was born in the U.S.A. in the 1950's, post WWII, into an American culture that taught me that Americans were exceptional. At this time in my life, every time I meet an individual that emigrated from a developed country into America, I always ask them what they thought about the average American citizens intelligence, they usually state that they were dumbfounded by the staggering ignorance of our population, except when it comes to celebrities! Most of these émigrés are multilingual and are well schooled in history, math, science, and are able produce an elegant and coherent verbal response to my question, even if English is not there primary language. Most Americans today, grew up in an "air conditioned cocoon", replete with wealth and hyper-consumerism as there culture, always looking to "purchase a sense of self" through externalism, emulating only what they perceive as: unique, attractive, and desirable. Americans have definitely devolved into a culture of "won't you look at my appearance, wealth and stature", and this mindset was definitely exacerbated by the advent of the internet and the smartphone! Sadly, most Americans are never involved in personal "introspection, contemplation, analysis, logic, skepticism etc.", and most are definitely NOT seeking the true meaning of being alive, only "I love the way a new car smells"!

Eventually, there will be enough of you to outnumber the selfish, greedy, corrupt politicians who own the Untied States and force them to know empathy for us, because THEY need to do better and they do not want to.

I'm here. December 2024. Carlin spent decades trying to tell us. Every generation has to fight to keep the greed and the sociopaths at bay - and what we are seeing now is the result of multiple generations FAILING to fight. We need to do something. This is happening to us because we are LETTING it happen.

@Frank Arrietta We're all under mind control to some degree. The term "Conspiracy theorist" is a political label/phrase that is used as a weapon, coined and repeated strategically to switch off the part of the brain that would otherwise consider further options had fear/ridicule not been instilled. Here's a few more, sound familiar? "Too big to fail" "Weapons of mass destruction" "Above your pay grade" "Nuclear Weapons" "Classified Information" "That's discrimination" All designed to keep you silent.

Actually George was speaking too much truth so the government goons killed him, just like they do to others who are a threat to their corrupt system. The government killed John Lennon too, simply because he was speaking the truth and people were listening to him. It is too bad Trump has sold out to the ZioBolshevik Cabal, I really believed he was going to drain the swamp of all the treasonous child raping/torturing/murdering scumbags.... now it appears they are going to continue destroying America and Europe just as planned in 1897, exposed by Rothschild's Pr0t0c0ls 0f Zl0N.

George wasn't miserable. He was disappointed at how pathetic humans can be in spite of their accomplishments. He understood the folly of being human.
