Past politicians, legislation and political movements have changed the course of history in ways both big and small. Welcome to our blast to the past.
Rule by the ultra-woke elite. Fact or fiction?
Rule by the ultra-woke elite. Fact or fiction? Manipulation of governance. There are people so arrogant and self-centred that they automatically dismiss anything “popular” as wrong, distasteful, beneath their consideration. A few hundred years ago this used to be the attitude among the aristocratic hereditary rulers in Europe but now it is worldwide and those holding these opinions are in controlling positions of government bureaucracies, the legal professions, the media, and education.

What do I know?
I blasted rock music in my airpods as I made myself breakfast; Nickelback singing about my pants around my feet while the eggs cooked. Was it necessary to listen to Chad Kroeger at top volume? Yes, yes, it was. I needed to drown out the dribble coming from the pastor on the tv.

“My Heart Stayed Calm Through Horror”. Content Warning.
How about a comparison of horror movies to the horror going on in America, lighthearted, I watched a horror movie last night, to my surprise my heart was not racing. I turned on the news about the ice terrorism and the horrors of Whitehouse being gutted so I turned the news off, turned on a horror movie again. I watched five horror films; my heart was pure at 82 beats a minute. I turned on the news again about tear gas sprayed on Halloween party together in a park, with children and knocking down old people, I said fuck it watched another horror film. what a relief to watch The Conjuring again and not the horrifying evil penetrating from the nazis in DC.

Is the Government Shutdown Real?
Remember when Trump kept saying "Fake News" and everybody called him the Anti-Christ for saying that? They mocked him, hated him, and called him all kinds of bad things because he was pointing out the FACT that many people were unaware about how much nonsense they accept as truth just because it came from the television or the "News" reporters. Do we still feel that way or have more people begun to realize that we have no idea what is true or false anymore? I have to admit that for the portion of my life that I call the "young years" it was really nice believing that I knew everything or at least that I knew enough to discern between fact and fiction. These days, I have no idea. Unless it actually occurred to me or to my witness, I have no idea who is truthing or fibbing. Like this "Government Shutdown" thing ---- What the heck are they talking about?

Marx’s Forgotten Paradox
Few thinkers have shaped the modern world as profoundly as Karl Marx. His ideas sparked revolutions, inspired liberation movements, and influenced entire schools of thought, from sociology to political philosophy. Yet, there remains a striking paradox at the heart of his legacy: Marx, a man deeply moved by human suffering and exploitation, consistently rejected the language of morality.
