Just a whole lot of identity politics marketed by the corporate MSM for mass consumption as "reality."  Divide and conquer. 

Bill (Clinton, that is) was the worst evil to date--at that point--but he swore to God that he felt our pain. 

What a Good Man.

Meanwhile, Kim's ass ain't what it used to be and honestly she's just plain getting fat.  But there's always her little sisters to lust or envy on. 

And of course their father/stepfather/whatever the fuck he is.  Or was. Whatever.

If he's in the outer solar system, he's moving in at the speed of light.  This is always how outright fascist leaders appear.

I suspect that 2016 will see an election between a cryptofacist and an outright fascist, and the outright fascist will win by a landslide.  People are too angry about the current situation.  Too angry to think straight and actually vote for someone who has a chance of solving it (ie the (L) candidate), and will instead vote for the one who speaks a bit of truth to power and promises blood against those responsible.

There is no one who can save "us".

Each one of us has to decide when to just pull his/her own John Galt.

One month of everyone sitting at home, on his/her ass, doing, buying, selling nothing would create the best opportunity for a real change.

And when a people are unwilling to stage a full-blown revolution like the one Americans and Europeans are able to inflict by simply staying the fuck home, not paying any bills or spending any money for a couple weeks to "pull off," you can understand why fundamentalist belief systems in all their variations are continually the new black. or orange. whatever.

maybe the vast majority of people who can both see the problems and have a conscience are hopelessly compromised.  gotta pay 'dem bills. 

john galt doesn't actually exist.  fictional character.  real people are the problem here and he ain't in novels, horribly reviewed movies or narcissistic fantasies.

But there’s a reason. There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason education SUCKS, and it’s the same reason it will never, ever, EVER be fixed.

It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it, be happy with what you’ve got.

Because the owners, the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners now, the BIG owners! The Wealthy… the REAL owners! The big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions.

Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice! You have OWNERS! They OWN YOU. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls.

They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying,  lobbying, to get what they want.  Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I'll tell you what they don’t want: 

They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests.

That's right. They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table and think about how badly they’re getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago. They don’t want that!

You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers...people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. And just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shitty jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they’re coming for your Social Security money. They want your retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street, and you know something? They’ll get it. They’ll get it all from you sooner or later cause they own this fucking place! It's a big club, and you ain’t in it!  You and I are not in The Big Club.

By the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table has tilted folks. The game is rigged and nobody seems to notice...nobody seems to care! Good honest hard-working people; white collar, blue collar it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard-working people continue - these are people of modest means - continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don’t give a fuck about you….they don’t give a fuck about you… they don’t give a FUCK about you. They don’t care about you at all… at all… AT ALL.

And nobody seems to notice...nobody seems to care. That's what the owners count on. The fact is that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue dick that's being jammed up their assholes everyday, because the owners of this country know the truth.

It's called the American Dream...because you have to be asleep to believe it.

Texas is just Texas. It's big and has a resulting big economy. Texans may, mind you, may, have a little stronger work ethic and there is a lot of rough country that just makes people harder and solution oriented.

Beyond that, we are people struggling with what to do about our renegade federal government and concerned about the future for our progeny, just like the rest of any thinking people in America.

Life is unfair.

Any Republican (or non-MSM approved candidate) MUST realize that the dominant media WILL try to define them to the public.

This was George W. Bush'w biggest failure.  He just assumed that the public would figure out by themselves how wonderful his policies were.

BAD MISTAKE.

Rick Perry made an unfortunate screw up, and the dominant media saw a chance to take him out -- and did.

One less viable opposition candidate.  The ruling oligarchy's goal is to get that number down to zero.

The business of the left is creating "narratives": commies - GOOD; capitalists - BAD.

Republicans need to learn that it is up to them to MAKE their own narrative, and to DEFEND it, and COUNTERATTACK the left's narratives.

Pretty cool shit seein Pluto up close on the New Horizens fly by. It is the fastest sattelite made doing 50,000 mph. Pluto is so far out it still took 9 1/2 years to reach it. For about and hour as I watched the show I had nothing but pride for our human species.

I think Voyager I or II topped 70k mph slingshotting by Jupiter or Saturn.   76k mph sticks in my head(speed relative to the giant gas planet)

Just FYI even though NH was the fastest launched probe, Voyager 1 is actually going faster due to Jupiter's gravitational assist.   NH received a grav assist as well but did not obtain the same velocity as Voyager 1.  

Voyager 1 is currently at 62,000 km/h while NH is at 50,000 km/h

The unfortunate reality of our planet is that people expect and demand orders from another, human or fictious entity, as a way of life.

A "leader" is not one who tells another what to do, but does the right thing by principle.

In the righteous version of this shithole planet, there are only teachers and students.

Populism always brings in a crowd. I was going to point out how he isn't really the hardcore American traditionalist he is presenting himself as, but since the PTB and the media hate his guts and live in fear of his every remark, yeah sure, why not Trump?

I hate politics, it's all lies and bullshit with computers counting the vote. This will be my last political statement, since it is all smoke and mirrors and no candidate can save this country, it's too far gone already.

Trump!  OK!

Gee you don't say... Family fortune built on government housing real estate/development deals, twice a registered Democrat, known associate of the Clintons (they were seated front row at one of his weddings), and lifetime donor to both parties.

The real question is, who will be more entertaining to watch... a defeated left or a defeated right. I've grown a bit tired of the defeated right after 8 years, it was good fun for a while, but now a defeated left would be a refreshing "change", just as it was when W seized the throne. Everything is awesome and perfect when my team wins, the game is rigged and the whole system is rotten when the other team wins.

I always find it humorous when the word "chance" is used with "candidate" in conjunction with the word "election." So "I'll give it a go:

There is a 100% chance that a candidate has already been selected to be the "elected" in the coming 2016 sheeple census.

THAT people vote matters.  If literally zero people vote in the next election, that might actually have some consequences.  Maybe.

THAT people vote lets human predators pretend they're something other than predators.  It isn't true of course, but voting does help confuse the 99.999% who are weak-minded fools.

I would go further and say, again, if the institution in question is criminal, then voting is participation in that criminal enterprise, and criminal as in of itself. Not that I am advocating the arresting of voters, but just pointing out the cognitive-dissonance of voting, participating, in a criminal, tyrannical, and treasonous "system." A system oriented and arrayed against the so-called voter. "It's illogical."

Liberty is a demand. Tyranny is submission..

 

Going further still by joining Jefferson:

    "...Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

I totally agree that voting is at minimum sanctioning predatory actions by human predators.  As such, voting is an assault on other human beings, and thus inherently evil.

I don't make a big deal about it, but I've always understood this, and have thus never voted (or acknowledged the notion of "authority").  Even from 4 years old I understood any claim of "authority" was absurd, inherently invalid and an aggression.

To vote is to give tacit approval to the outcome and to the entire system behind it.

They tell me, "If you don't vote, you have no right to complain."  Next they say "He's your president, too."  This pushes my hot button. 

I say, "IF you vote, you have no right to bitch."

What if they held a selection and nobody showed up?

The 'consent of the governed' would evaporate into the ether.

I would really like to see Trump answering on some truly sensitive questions. Like whether he condemn operation Protective Edge, if he plan to keep donating to Israel(despite US running huge deficits and being in worse shape than them), if he want to reopen investigation on 9/11, if he want to audit/investigate FED, media bias and propaganda etc... Until I see that, its just another "hollywood actor" to me.

Scooby Dooby Doo says that's old news.

ZH is a .gov piece of real estate but it's encourages participation across all agencies and top level corporate personnel who do business with .gov.

It does so using a technique of recruiting quite similar to the movie called 'Fight Club'.

Compensation for .gov personnel is based on how many comments they make and they get a year end bonus which reflects their 'fine work'.

FBI is the main culprit behind ZH but DHS is technically the owner.

Did you know who Marla was? Who was the cryptology professor from Brown Univ. who use to comment on ZH? She was knee deep in Bitcoin and when ZH started she was working at Microsoft Research. Lizzy, oh Lizzy.

Perhaps the US does need some  military threat to the neo Bolsheviks running Media and Banking. White banker bleed a lot.

If Trump gets shunted out, and Ted cruz is marginalized, well then it becomes apparent that Bernie Sanders should be President. Lets bring it all down. Lets not let te bankers bring it down at their speed. Bring it doen at the people's speed.
