So well said, Jim! This is the best, most cogent thing I have read on this most important subject which reflects our current terrifying reality. I could not agree more. It encapsulates the seeds of what I began to conclude during the Bush Administration when everyone in the media was calling KKKarl Rove a "genius". It occurred to me that he was no genius, just a sociopath, who had no ethics, or empathy for anyone, and would do whatever it took to "win" the 2000 and then 2004 stolen elections, along with all the other atrocities greenlighted and committed by the Bush/Cheney Administration. This included lying us into fraudulent, illegal wars, de-criminalizing torture, installing Nazi Hans Von Spakovsky in the DOJ Civil Rights division, the suspicious death of Rove's IT guru, McConnell, in an "airplane crash" just before he was to testify about the IT system he installed on Capitol Hill, etc. Rove, among others in the Bush Administration, particularly the sinister group of Nazi-style 'lawyers' they employed from John Yoo to David Addington, were/are sociopaths and possibly psychopaths, in my opinion. I believe this is what opened the door to all of this, especially on a legal, judicial level, as well as on an information/data hacking level. For all I know, the McConnell-compromised Capitol Hill IT/computer system is still hacked and being surveilled by who knows who, but we can probably guess...and it is definitely NOT good. The vultures have come home to roost, big time!

"Under-regulated capitalism has allowed a strain of raging psychopathy to take control of key sectors of our way of life, including business and politics."

Almost as good as FDR's definition of Fascism.

Seems an obvious solution that’s right in front of us and cheap. Get off all these addiction masters that own it all. Boycott how we get news: no cable, no nyt WAPO, no twitter, no fb, insta…all of em. We just stop and use the time to heal, to read, hear music, hear children playing. Let our own thoughts stimulate ideas, maybe even new directions

Brilliant, Jim. You should consider sending this as an opinion piece to NYT, WaPo, or Rolling Stone. It’s excellent❀️

That's what I'm saying...

Mind Control

Underage sex tape, bribery, brain rape, death threats, starvation, sleep deprivation, eternal damnation

Subconscious invasion, uncomfortable confusion, microwave weaponry,

Constant contradiction, reality is fiction, contrarian barbarian, toxic inhumanity, cold selfish greedy

Rejection of science, experts, truth, vampires long in the tooth

Mind control baby!

Mind control baby!

Witnessing the Putinization of our nation, controlled opposition, time we are wastin

Traumaganda, dissociation, indoctrination, radicalization, cult identity, give your last dime to me

Hypnosis, Neuro-linguistic Programming, half our news is Kremlin infused

Mind control baby!

Mind control baby!

Mind control baby!

Conspiracy theories, alternative facts, gaslighting

Lies, Armageddon, double binds

Religions, cults, pyramid schemes

Gimme your seed money

Mind control baby!

Mind control baby!

Mind control baby!

Mind control baby!

Mind control!

It says king on the bible for a reason

It's your soul the emperor is seizin

Money power control

Filling your void with paranoid delusions

Telling you what your brainfucked mind wants to hear

Wrong side of history, magic, mythology

But we're to blame you see

Can't believe your lying eyes

Don't know the definition of words you despise

Pissing away our rights to own the other side

Enslavement of women, killin moms, planting bombs

Crypto and it's gone

Gold bug both a con

Welcome to the hybrid war

Welcome to the hybrid war!

I have been saying this for years. Most people around the world just want a decent life. That is a quote from Johnny got his gun. When I read that, it hit me hard as being total truth. One of the biggest mistakes that most of us make is thinking that everyone thinks like we do. Reading another book, one of the characters, who was a thief, was thinking, if they let me get away with it, they deserve what they get. Another epiphany. So we had a good world, the envey of the world with our large, successful middle class and we got complacent. We let what used to be called the robber barons take over and turn us into surfs. I am afraid that this will happen again and again, if we are still around because we don’t really understand what we are up against.

These comments could not have come at a better time for me. I was just talking about the craziness with a friend and wondering how we got here and why so many people buy into the psychopathy. I see the situation a little more clearly now. It does feel unreal . So it’s good to know I’m not alone feeling that way.

Gosh, I couldn't have said it better. We are in the twilight zone and it's truly frightening to experience. I'm appalled that these psychotic voices are allowed to be amplified and do lasting harm to our loved ones and neighbors. Thank you for your encouragement and the difficult work you do for our collective benefit.

P. S. I will be voting for Liz tomorrow in an effort to keep the psycho Hag out of office! πŸ—³οΈ
