  • Everything we currently eat or are able to eat was established by the deaths of millions of people who helped us to figure out what not to eat. And we’re dumb animals, so often it would take several deaths or unfortunate circumstances before we figured out what was bad for us.

    It’s kind of like OSHA rules and regulations … it’s all written in blood and death.


  • I’m up in Canada and when I look at these headlines every day … it just affirms my belief that America is a failed democracy. Everyone keeps calling it a democracy but it’s only a name or description at this point because it certainly doesn’t function like one any more.

    I’m in no special place either … we are on our way downhill up here as well. We’re not at the same level as the US but we are on our way there. The whole first world system is slowly morphing into some sort of weird Corporatocracy.








  • It’s not just the fact that a president makes these stupid proclamations …

    It’s that the whole American government, or at least a good portion of it, just goes along with it and allows it all to happen and normalize it all. Their leader is there because there is an entire community of professionals, academics, supporters, wealthy leaders, officials, bureaucrats and politicians all want him to be there. Trump isn’t some god king that magically is able to do or say all this … he’s there because enough people who are in control want him there.

    The orange menace is just the very tip of just how stupid America and American politics have become

    They do the same for telemarketing, email, mail, phone, sms, and any other contact request … once there’s a response, it’s confirmation that the account has a human owner
