Society Blogs (898)

It’s probably my own fault that I don’t know the reason why. If I could be bothered to actually read the entirety of the blogs it might possibly give me some insight into the motivation behind them. The blogs I refer to are those posted by that group of bloggers who have become collectively known as the lying bastards. Unfortunately, and I wish it were otherwise, they seem to have only become known as that by me.

Anyway, back to the why. So why do the lying bastards want as many people as possible to believe the lies that they, the bastards, are going to great lengths to propagate? While my current obsession is with the lying itself -I hate lying- I also have some curiosity about the reason for it. It isn’t burning curiosity, but, nevertheless, even mild curiosity can cause an annoying itch. So here are a few whys:

Why are the sycophantic Trumpsters so intent on discrediting Obama and Clinton? They are gone, aren’t they? They may still have a voice, but are they still influential enough to pose a threat to the Orange buffoon? I don’t know, but I wouldn’t have thought their influence significant enough to warrant all the effort being put into blackening their names.

5G. Now who’s interests are really being threatened by 5G? The interests of all of us, apparently. The motivation behind the campaign to derail 5G is concern for public health. Bollocks; anyone who believes that will believe anything.

Bill Gates. The man is instrumental in channelling millions of dollars into philanthropic projects in deprived areas of the World, yet there are dark forces determined to have us believe that he is the personification of evil. Why, for God’s sake!

The covid restrictions: Governments all around the World are imposing rules and restrictions in response to the virus crisis. The explanations for doing so seem perfectly sensible and logical, yet people are screaming out about their freedom being taken away. This is all temporary, things will go back to normal. Who is fuelling this fire? The capitalists perhaps, who are horrified at seeing their cash flows not flowing?

I’m not even going to bother with all the things the satanists are being blamed for, although it does upset me a little, this particular group of scapegoats being rather close to my heart.

I could go on, and I normally would, but my attention span is flagging for some reason. Perhaps I will add more things later as a means of bumping a blog suffering from disinterest back to the top of the page.

Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

Anybody here got a sharp axe?

Let's try and foster this kind of energy

All the situations in our community with cops and any other agencies that treat people wrong isn't right. It's really sad that you have to get a video if you want the truth to be exposed. How do those people sleep?

It seems like no one ask questions anymore or even want to know the truth. I said that because with all the abuse that goes on within prisons, with cops and other agencies its clear without video confirmation many people will keep on suffering.

All that matters is being on the side of hatefulness. Hateful people will follow a person's lie until that lie is exposed. It may sound corny but no one who has a good spirit world have stood by and let that happen.
What I mean to say is, not one of those offers took any action to stop their partners. So I say, weather a cop or a staff member in an agency. Please stop the madness because at some point in the future your turn is coming. (KARMA) Just like those officers, I don't think they believe they would be fried. But that's what happens when you have people who will support you for all the wrong reasons. You start to think you're untouchable until your KARMA is ready for you.

Another human being would have mentally noted, they are dealing with another human being who is not perfect. And like ourselves made mistakes a long the way. Therefore, no matter how else those officers responded, hurting or even killing that man would not have been a part of their agenda. I spent a lot of time in prison to know karma is real. And that's what keeps me hopeful while moving forward.

So how do we as human beings move forward again, I mean, how many more times must we continue to follow the order and examples of the people we know are leading us down the wrong path. Who else has to be video tapped dieing or video tapped being treated unfairly before we as a community put a stop to the hateful madness. LD

What could possibly go wrong? Well, it seems these two groups get into conflict sometimes. In this case, apparently, a female named Cooper had her dog off lead, and a man, no relation, also named Cooper, asked her to place the dog on a leash, as required by law. He seemed much more civil than she, and she quickly began to scream, and to call police, saying a "black man" threatened to kill her. His only reply seemed to be, "please, call them", as he videoed away.
Things did settle down. No charges were filed. But the case could stand a little Vierk style, in depth ANALysis, oh my fellow CS dog watchers, and bird walkers. What can be seen here?
Well, this high strung female wound up on public broadcast media, "apologizing to Mr. Cooper and his family". But not before she was summarily fired from her job at a financial firm, which said that our firm can not tolerate racism in our employees. For his part, Mr. Cooper graciously said that this incident should not ruin her life.
Neat- O! Racism, and as likely, rank sexism. Right down my alley. But why go through a dreadful, dreary, tedious Vierk analysis of the interpersonal dynamics underLYING this event, much of which is captured on video and audio. The biased, race card obsessed media is all over it, using racial tropes galore, but without a whisper of the sexism involved.
Why subject you all to issues of female/male alleged differences in power, physical and otherwise, historical and present day? Or how slightly more females, statistically, suffer abuse, often from family members, mostly from men, but also from women (especially in same sex unions), and how this could influence perceptions and behaviors. This, where the full statistical picture includes abuse of children. Yes, and in the broader culture, with biased liberal input from the masters and mistresses of public education, how attitudes are formed. Attitudes that having things both ways, perhaps, are A-OK? And so much more. And so much more.
No, I'll simply ask fair and honest men if there might just also be plenty of sexism here in this story. And if they or others they know have ever been in similar straights to Central Park birder Mr. Cooper. Are frantic claims of "he threatened to kill me", often later admitted to be false, telling of much deeper issues? Do prosecutors, juries, police and judges ever hear false sides of stories? And is the shoe ever on the proverbial other foot? No need for a formal analysis, "just the facts, ma'am". Says Sargent Friday.
In men's groups, these themes come up all the time. As with racism, sexism thrives, in part, on many such attitudes, perceptions and behaviors. Can't make this stuff up.

It was at 5 am precisely that I was jolted out of a beautiful slumber by a large crash. The noise, made louder by the quietness of the night, came from somebody dumping a large amount of glass bottles in a nearby trash container. And the first thought in my sleep groggy mind was “we’re back to normal”.

To many, it seems that Covid19 is over, even as to many others it seems like it was just a bad dream. Facemasks are now in fashion only if you’re in a shop, or queueing at the pharmacy.

Most people, going about their post Covid19 restrictive period business seem to be oblivious to the fact that the corona virus is still at large, even ravaging countries as WHO declare the Americas as the hotspot of the outbreak with Brazil registering its highest death rate in the last days.

Apart from war torn countries like the Yemen, where the UN Refugee Agency has declared that the situation has been pushed beyond breaking point even as they only received 15% of the needed relief funding.

Presumably, every country is rather stretched and so looking after itself first and foremost. We all know the adage “charity begins at home”.

Except that home is not just Balluta in my case. Or Malta for that matter. Covid19 showed us that our home is Earth. When ET stated “ET go home”, about this time 38 years ago, the adorable alien meant leaving Earth to go to his planet.

So as we prepare for ‘normal life’ to return, and the EU opens up its skies and borders in the coming weeks, it is well to remember that our home, Earth, is not yet out of the Covid19 woods, that a jab to fight this virus is still thought to be eighteen months away, and that however our lives are being impacted, there are so many other millions far worse off than us, who need help, not only by remembering them in our prayers, but by remembering to share a little from our good fortune.

As we still need to remain cognisant of the virus, continue to practice social distancing and good hygiene and not letting off relief fireworks yet.

Let us hope Malta continues to register nil new Covid19 cases. As we also hope that the frustration release of many at beaches or bars will not spike again these figures.
And the crashing of glass bottle disposal from said bars ‘returning to normal’ business would ideally also move their noisy crash activity to a more ‘normal’ hour … shall we say 8 am?

Poem By Francis Miles Finch, Set To Music & Performed By Jim Remington

"The famous poem by Francis Miles Finch entitled The Blue and the Grey commemorates soldiers who fought for both sides during the Civil War. The Planters' Banner, a local newspaper of Franklin, LA, published this poem on September 14, 1867. William T. Palfrey included the memorial poem in his plantation diary. The poem contrasts the North and the South, the robings of glory (the North) and the gloom of defeat (the South), and the dead and the living. Images of death and the grave beneath the sod and the dew run throughout. The poem also paints the vivid, gory picture of warfare, describing the flow of inland river where the iron fleets had once traversed and the grass beneath which soldiers lie in their graves. The rivers are no longer sullied by the red flow of soldiers' blood, and now flowers bloom around the scenes of battle. The poem shows life after war: It transitions from the gloom of defeat into a sunny spring day full of blossoms blossoming for all. While the seasons change and the weather varies, the Love and tears for the Blue, Tears and love for the Grey remain.

"The poem memorializes the soldiers who fought and died for both sides; sentimental poems remember these fallen heroes. Yet, The Blue and the Grey challenges the pointlessness of the war itself, probing, Sadly, but not with upbraiding, The generous deed was done, In the storm of the years are fading, No braves battle was won. To Finch, little honor came from the Civil War, merely death for soldiers fighting for their causes. The poem paradoxically and simultaneously eulogizes and glorifies the Civil War in its pointless destruction and its grandiose battles. In memoriam of these soldiers of both the Union and Confederate armies, Finch paints a picture of common loss, equal splendor, and the remembrance of soldiers by visiting their graves."

I remember seeing a normally desolate field transformed in one day to a place FULL of flashing lights, the smell of caramel corn, hot dogs, games, rides, funky music, and maybe even a magic show! Right? Well, Folks......we're still there..........The lights are made to mesmerize, the food is full of glyphosates that cause Cancer, the music is full of subliminal programming (such a self-proclaimed Satanist - Katy Perry who has openly admitted on two different Interviews that she follows the Dark Side - look at her videos!!!), and the "Shows" are meant to lull you into a dull-minded stupor............all for the sake of Profit and control...
What can we do? Realize that the media is FULLY OWNED by the Dark Side will tell you NOTHING of the truth! (see earlier Blogs RIGHT HERE!) Their JOB is to keep you hating others - of a different Political view; of a different color of skin. etc. while the Dark Side make TONS of Profit on YOUR SUFFERING! And these people are NOT just one Political Party - to believe that is simplistic. "They" are a multinational Group of Businessmen whose ONLY agenda is to keep you stupid, and gullible. Take your Power back!!!!!!!!!! BE AWARE! Do your own research! Don't hide your head in the sand and think the "Carnival" will take care of you. The more of us that WAKE UP the harder it will be for the Dark to keep control. It is TIME TO REMOVE THEIR POWER FOR GOOD!

I really should stay away from here, this place just makes me too angry. Stupidity and dishonesty are two of the worst things for making me angry, and there is an abundance of both here lately.

The dishonesty is in the videos and articles that get posted. Most of what is in them is shameless distortion of facts, and very often outright lies. The fact that they are dishonest is bad enough, but many are downright dangerous, or they would be if enough people believed them. To encourage people to ignore official rules and guidelines in the present situation is malicious. Encouraging people to act politically, prompted by lies and propaganda is malicious. Trying to frighten people into believing over religious fantasy with the threat of Hell and the Devil is malicious.

The stupidity is in the idiots who believe all this crap. They actually think they are being smart; can you believe that! They think they are one jump ahead of the government, the establishment, the mainstream media, the NWO. The morons are swallowing it all, hook, line and sinker. Who do they think is behind all this “truth” they are being given? What do they really know about these people who are “enlightening” them? What logical reason do they have to put even the slightest trust in them? Just because they are sceptical of officialdom, they seem to think that absolutely any information that confirms their suspicions must be the gospel truth, no matter how implausible or absurd it may be. They end up beating their chests and crowing about not being suckers, while all the while they are being exploited and manipulated by people far worse than their governments.

All this, on top of my having to go back to work on Tuesday, is simply too much.

16 Old-Fashioned Solutions For Problems With The World Today
by REBECCA ENDICOTT

You know, when I was growing up, I never imagined I would ever really be an adult. Like Peter Pan, I had a hunch that maybe it was optional.

Of course, now that I’m here, looking back on that time, I can’t help but think (as all adults eventually do) that youth is wasted on the young.

Certainly, I didn’t take full advantage of it when I had the chance. And now it seems like every kid and young adult I see has his or her face buried in a smartphone—even this mom confessed to her addiction.

I think it’s about time we looked into our past for a few lessons on how to live a happier and more fulfilling life.

It’s not just nostalgia; if we returned to a time with fewer distractions, more time spent with the ones we love, and simpler pleasures, I think we would all reap the benefits.

Here’s how we did things, back in my day…
