Intimidation and Control

Today I had over two hundred visitors on this site, most of them in the United States and Myanmar.

This is impossible. None of my subscribers read from here anymore.

It’s likely that the current government is downloading or having federal agents reading posts one at a time each, because the list of titles viewed shows one view per visitor.

I want this to be perfectly clear:

I am not a hater of anyone nor am I a danger to anyone. I hate the things I and others do, but never the people.

That much being said, what’s going on in the Caribbean is truly terrifying.

While drugs are a problem, even though Venezuela isn’t a major player, I don’t believe this has ever been an excuse for starting a war. And yet, there are casualties. Vessels in the Caribbean have been fired on by U.S. Navy planes. BBC reports Gerald R. Ford is down there with subs and escort ships.

I wouldn’t know. And I wouldn’t care if we had not already racked up casualties.

And Venezuela has contacted OPEC with a warning that we might invade.

Fact: the world will not react favorably to any military action started by us, unprovoked and for an false reason. We’re staring down the barrel of World War Three and I’m personally scared. You think his Saudi friends will back us against other Arab countries?

This unusual traffic on my site makes me believe I’m a person of interest to those who think speaking against the president’s actions are actually illegal.

I’ve been trying to figure out why I bother with this site. Nobody comes here. I can’t remember the day I had most of my views in a 24 hour period. But, of course, it was never over 50.

I’m not interesting. I write about loss, tragedy and loneliness. Of love I couldn’t act on because I wasn’t good enough for the woman I loved most in my entire life.

I’ve done religion and current events, and I have changed with the times just as everyone else has. Some have learned and pulled away from extremist views. Others have failed to learn anything and become more mired and cannot believe any truth beyond their beliefs. Their truths are lies.

This world is in what I believe are End Times chaos. We fight, we kill, we hate. And it’s getting worse.

You may think these early snows and cold snaps disprove global warming, but that’s wrong. Climate and weather are different things. Every expert who tells the truth has warned us that extreme and unseasonal weather was inevitable.

And war equals war crimes. No “honorable” war has ever been fought in all of recorded history. Men do unspeakable things in wars and that’s just how it is. You don’t need an entire brigade or carrier group to slay the innocent. To rape and steal and much worse, and yes, there is worse.

I’m not pointing any fingers here, either. Every war has seen bestial things and there’s no way to stop that. Especially not with the leader of a country so eager to pardon that behavior.

We citizens of the United States do not want war. But the so-called War Department is poking the hornet’s nest, and I learned by age four that you just don’t do that.

Whoever fires on U.S. Navy ships will be answered with everything we have. Don’t allow it. There’s no reason when you know there are better ways.

And to the president, I simply ask, “do you want a legacy that history will hate you for, or would you prefer to have people say your name with respect because you turned around and helped people instead of what you’re doing now?

I know which one I would choose.

And for anyone who reads this, do you really believe God is happy with us? That he’s not going to judge us guilty for the destruction we’ve done to this planet? Forever chemicals, mercury and other heavy metals and toxins now reside in every part of the globe, in the air, on land, and in the deepest oceans. They’ve invaded virtually every human and animal, and I haven’t even mentioned plastics yet.

How much longer do you figure we can live?

It’s something everyone needs to ask themselves, and depopulation crimes can’t help. Those are just murders.

Given thoughtful consideration, I believe that you will not like the answer.

I love God. I love His children. That’s unconditional; it has to be.

I don’t like what many do, and I said earlier, I include myself in the equation.

“We all like sheep have gone astray; every one to his own way, and the Lord has laid on him (Jesus) the iniquity of us all..” (Isaiah 53)

Yeshua (Jesus in Latin) has us covered. He did before we were born. All we have to do is turn back to him. Renounce our sins and try to do better.

One last observation.

There’s a lady near me who feeds the local deer herd. Every day she goes to the woods and chucks all kinds of good food around. Now they barely graze, waiting for her. They graze afterwards but they know she’s got the good stuff.

This is not because she thinks they need help.

Having observed her at length, it struck me that it’s all about control.

Control is a horrible responsibility, and few ever live up to it.

All who seek control over wild animals are lacking control in their own lives, and I’m not referring to gamekeepers or zoo employees. I’m saying laypeople mostly do what she does because they want power over wild things. Sure, white tailed deer are cute, but because of her, the herd is confused. They allow her to approach, but still shun people. This unfortunately brings them closer to places people walk and even live. They’ve eaten elephant plants nearby every year but this one. Now the plants stand yellow and soft.

Every time someone seeks control, bad things happen. A doe with a fawn nearly charged me (you can look up the warning signs) and the buck, about an eight-pointer, stayed in the area for three months. That is not normal behavior. And he would stand right in my path, daring me to come closer. I didn’t dare.

Ultimate control is illusory at best. When Hitler took Germany, he ruled with a steel fist. Until, of course, he’d squeezed the last bit of humanity out of so many people that he couldn’t control what was left of them; each relished their own positions of power and did horrible things.

He was soon overcome by his perception that he was in control to the point where he had killed so many people, especially his own, that there was no way he could even know what was going on. His subordinates were frightened by the thought of giving him bad news; he’d executed too many of them, and killed his best armor commander out of misplaced outrage after D-DAY. Soon, his city, his bunker, was surrounded. Even underground he could hear the sounds of Soviet artillery. In the end, his country was in ruins, his people split between east and west, and by then he was already dead by his own hand.

The “control” of an angry man tore his country apart and left Germans traumatized, broken and hated by too many people to ever count.

This is something the world ought not to want repeated. And when it was reported that Donald Trump was a fan of Hitler, it chilled my blood.

So, what’s next? I know you’re asking.

My answer is, buy a history book. A set of history books. Then you’ll know.

Nazi Germany Did This Kind Of Shit…

Go to this article on Istagram if you’re not believing that Nazism in America has teeth. Because it does, they’re razor sharp, and are owned by a rabid dog.

Here is the full article on The Guardian website, and I’m telling you now, it is a hard read. But it is a must read as well. The history of the United States includes a little thing we call World War Two. In that conflict, we fought with allies against Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany. We were conflicted at first, not wanting to help stop Hitler. It cost the lives of an enormous but unknowable number of people, most of them civilians.

In Germany, the citizens had been whipped up by hate-filled rhetoric and the films prove it. One I can’t forget has what looks like thousands shouting “Sig heil”. Fucking scary, that; because that’s the early days of the Third Reich. What followed was the most earth-shaking war in all of history.

A bit more subtle, and to this day ignored, was that before the Blitz, Goose-stepping in the Rhine covered the sounds of people from all over the country being taken into custody. You know about the Jews. Not many realize that gays and lesbians, blacks, mental patients, priests, Christians and more were rounded up, shot or sent to prison camps as well.

Abortion doctors were not among them. Abortion was legal, but only for certain situations. For example, a woman made pregnant by any male who wasn’t German was encouraged to abort that pregnancy. Mostly abortion was illegal, punished. And any and all punishments in the Reich were horrific.

Another stipulation added to the abortion law was introduced by the Reich that while doctors could perform an abortion, they were forbidden from advertising that type of procedure. Today, doctors are being forced to adhere to that very restriction. In modern Germany but also here. In America. The land of the free.

And don’t forget that South Carolina was working on a bill to mandate capital punishment for all women who got abortions. That, my friends, is a hate crime anywhere else in the world, a violation of human rights that could spread and cause severe consequences overseas. I predicted years ago that the day would come when the United Nations left US soil and relocated in Western Europe, kicking the US out as a member. If you think it’s impossible, well, it isn’t.

So, wait: doesn’t this mean that the US is heading to a point worse than Nazism?

It would seem so. Because of the open hate speech, ridiculous political and religious bullshit, because stupid people with closed minds can be used well beyond their ability to register consciously what they’re doing, and because racism never stopped but is worse than ever, and God himself has been weaponized by the far right, this country will not survive as it has been. There may be some sort of border agreement between certain city-states, or there could be a civil war, which the right would win simply by being more hateful and armed to the teeth.

Or a new fascist regime could take over in the wink of an eye. We have no way to tell.

You cannot stop hate and malicious, religious furor, political extremists or people bent on seeing the US torn apart, with liberals executed. They dream about it.

Doctors who perform abortions being the targets of hate and violence is not new. The ink on the Roe versus Wade decision was barely dry before they began. Any doctor could be a target.

One thing more disturbs me about this poor woman, a professional sworn to help people, and our sociopolitical climate.

The truth is being stepped on very effectively. On both sides, because cable news and most online news is heavily controlled by their owners, all of which are corporate or corporation-affiliated. But at least the left tries to get it right. And if we’re wrong we can admit it. The right believes its own lies. After Fox hosts were busted talking smack about Trump, they continue to lie about, and cover for, a man who is stupid, evil, dishonest and overwhelmingly dishonorable. Before all of this started — before O’Reilly, nobody did this crap. Nor could they have foreseen it.

America is dying. I don’t know how this ends, but it will not be good. We will be the first superpower to end up as little more than a third world country known for civil and human rights violations. A country sanctioned by civilized countries. Because the way I see it, we are not civilized.
