Those who rightfully fear total control from governments will condescendingly tell people that “It’s Bitcoin or CBDC!” and if that doesn’t get enough fear they’ll sometimes chime in with “stay poor!”. By presenting the sum total of digital resistance to tyranny as a binary choice between “buy or die” one totally downplays the more critical fights. No cryptocurrency can itself re-balance control over digital infrastructure from the bottom-up. By shaming those not taking on a particular digital asset, they’re ultimately participating in furthering along the digitization of society along their financial interests.

Yes, it is a mad world, and the evidence of this insanity is overwhelming. The most obvious idiocy of course surrounds this bogus ‘election’ cycle, and the political scum who make up the evil and chosen moronic contestants. It is a game show after all. The hosts, contestants, and the mob of followers of this political game show, act in quite the same manner as those on Family Feud. The hosts (ruling class representatives) take charge with extreme rhetoric, propaganda, and feigned ‘charisma,’ while the contestants (presidential candidates) jump up and down making bogus promises while pretending to be ecstatically over-joyed at every moment prompted by their hosts, and all the mob of followers (voting audience and viewers) clap and scream in support of all the stupidity. This is of course, all fake, but then that is appropriate in both cases; game shows and stupid political life on a stage of props.

Trump, Vance, Harris, and Walz are nothing but hideous political puppets intentionally put in place to give the collective dolts of society another reason to hate each other enough so that the circus goes on, this regardless of the asinine fraud that it is. This is of course a deliberate scheme set up by the real ruling power, which are the banking, corporate, and billionaire classes who actually have total power and control over this entire system; meaning they have full control of all those who participate in this political scam. These four pieces of garbage could easily be replaced by Donald Duck, (pun intended) Daisy Duck, and Chip ‘n’ Dale, all advised by Pinocchio, and this ‘citizenry’ would scarcely know the difference.

The person who is most responsible for the attacks on October 7 is Donald Trump. It was Trump who launched the so-called Middle East Peace Plan that allowed for the “unilateral annexation of the Jordan River valley and existing settlements” in the West Bank.

Just as it was Trump who decided to move the US embassy to Jerusalem which effectively recognized the city as Israel’s capital. “Then on March 25, 2019”—according to veteran journalist Joe Lauria—“Trump recognized Israel’s illegal 1981 annexation of Syria’s Golan Heights” in violation of UN Resolution 242. Even Israel’s most ardent supporters, like the New York Times, were aghast at the sheer magnitude of Trump’s giveaway...

Find a place in Nature where you can easily spend at least a few minutes, ideally 30, every day. It may be at the base of a favorite tree, in your garden, at a nearby park…anywhere where you can comfortably sit, relax, and focus on a plant or animal each and every day for at least a year. See it through all the seasons, at different times of day, in all types of weather. As you begin, take a few deep and conscious breaths. This helps to bring your awareness...

as the fascist, anti-science #COVIDHoax showed, some of the worst behavior in the U.S. came from state, county and municipal — local! — officials and enforcers, rather than from the national level. And they often encouraged your family, friends, and community members to help violate you through “snitch lines” and other intrusive tactics.

Coercive civil authority is inherently, intrinsically evil. The core problem is with this type of social order, regardless of the degree of size and scope. Locating the core problem of evil in the size/scope is a glaring fallacy!

The sequences of the polioviruses detected in Gaza in July 2024 suggest that these viruses may be related to a strain circulating in Egypt, with the virus potentially being introduced to Gaza as early as September 2023.

This is probably due to the nature of the oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV), which contains a weakened live poliovirus that can be shed by vaccinated people. This suggests the virus may have been introduced by someone travelling to the region.
