What a concept: Keep It Simple Sociopath! I love it!

Luigi Mangione is indeed a folk hero as you described him. I have a very positive feeling that this is only the beginning of the Revolution; however, we cannot exempt the politicians who take bribes from the corporations in order that they be allowed to perpetrate such actions as they do.

This is OUR country, not theirs! The peasants are gathering with their torches, pitchforks and AK47s.

One point of clarification: Lake Erie is still very much ice free at this point. In recent years there havbeen instances wakey the lake stays ice-free year-round. That being said, it will take seveal more decades of global warming until Lake Erie becomes the palm-lined tropical paradise you describe. And of course TPTB are working very hard to make sure we burn enough fossil fuels to do just that.

Oh, yeah, I know that. I remember long ago when you could walk several miles off shore on the frozen ice. People even drove cars and trucks onto the ice to get to their ice fishing shacks! Whenever someone tells me that it "rarely snows in Ohio" I have to shake my head. Global warming has already made its presence known in this region, alas.

We’ve yet to have any significant snowfall in three years in mid-Michigan; no more than 6 inches at a time, and that’s a rarity.

For sure. The growing season has officially extended two weeks from when I was a kid.

And here I thought none of these events are related, and that the US is all about "freedom and democracy". How well they've blinded the public into accepting their sicko narrative! It's time to change it to one where the ordinary hard working people are in charge.

Power to the people!

"Our energies shouldn’t be wasted arguing over what religion or nationality or ethnicity or political or gender persuasion a person is or was. Our energies should be focused upon saving the lives of as many of us ordinary, hard-working people around the world as possible." It's only about three things:

1) Class

2) Class

3) Class

Anything else is a distraction that benefits the rulers.

And you are absolutely right about the surveillance/murder drones.

Time is VERY short.

The workers don't have much time if the elites get a hold of AI killer-robots and drones to use against us. We've got to have similar tech or act swiftly enough with basic tech that they don't know what hit them until after the fact. We can't waste any more time on the distractions.

It's long past time for this.

Thank you for your kind words, Susan! It's always okay to take a break from the news, so never feel bad if you need one. The bad news is just relentless some weeks, and I have to somehow tie it all together in my mind and simplify it so I can calm my raging thoughts. It's a "break" of my broken-hearted thoughts you could say.

Kind words back 🙏🏻, the feeling bad is not about the news , but about not being able to witness what is happening to the Palestinians . It’s about finding a way to give my voice and support to them and you do this so magnificently.
