Democracy vs Dictatorship

The founding fathers are turning in their graves because a former president has declared he will become dictator if voted in as president in the 2024 election. The first presidents understood what it meant to be a dictator and they would be appalled to see someone take power that wants to do away with the democracy that they fought for, that they worked so hard to make reality.

We don’t need a leader who will turn this country into another Russia. A country with a dictator that can hurt the people more than he has already done. A man who will destroy this country to service his own selfish needs.

Think hard about what you wish for. Destruction of our Constitution and Bill of rights will start another war here

History and Archeology: Issue in perspective.

I’ve had this talk with both archeologists and historians. The occasional situation arises, and an argument about who is right can impact a way an object is persevered. But this doesn’t just happen in these to field’s it can happen with history, archeology, and geology.

Here is one of those examples.

Let me know what you think.

Bullies and Beliefs

The country was founded on the idea that people should be allowed to have their own beliefs. That we shouldn’t make others accept our beliefs. Currently, there are groups who are doing just that on the rest of the country. Both by bullying and some by enacting laws that could be considered unconstitutional.

We call these people, small minded, racists, bigots, fascists, white privileged, and manly. They are haters to your way of life. It could be the are they greedy and hate your happiness. They don’t like your lifestyle. They want something they can have without destroying the rest of us.

They don’t want people to be smart. Then people will understand what they are trying to do. So they ban books, and they pass laws to keep you and your kids from getting a well-rounded education. They don’t want you to understand critical thinking because they believe you’re the sheep they can get what they want out of at all costs.

The other group right now causing their own supporters to look at them with a level of no longer u derstand are a group in recent years who have been persecuted. They have chosen to lash out at a community of gamers, some who may be like them all because of a person who isn’t responsible for the game but should be entitled to their beliefs.

The problem now is this hate this bullying is causing more division where we shouldn’t have division. Our forefathers left their countries, so they had their freedom to believe and learn and teach what they thought to others and to exchange ideas with discussion and learning. They didn’t want people to force their ideas on them nor have their ideas forced on others.

Humor shows us sometimes how silly all this can be. The reality is we can’t let this situation to continue. We need to stop the hate and live together without the oppression of those who think they know better.

Be kind and let’s all grow without hate.

GOP, House Freedom Party, what’s wrong with this picture!

It’s clear the Republican party is split in ways that has made the party the laughing stocks of the country as well as of the world. 54 people are part of the Freedom Party and many of these people are seditionists.

They are the people who want to take away your right to vote, to have your social security, to have Hhealthcare and schools. These are the people who want to get rid of our constitution and have openly said so.

These people also haven’t hidden there support against your right to your religious beliefs. There support for facisim, bigotry, gender hate, as well as racial hate.

Sedation happened during the Civil Wars Era, Just like this ridiculous vote for house speaker going on now. Sedationists back then where kick out of congress back then and should be now. The only reason this is going on was the previous administration not being fully prosecuted.

Have a better day!

Education!?!

Why do some people want to do away with the department of education? If you see what curriculum they are trying to manipulate in the schools you have your answer.

Real history is under attack in the schools. This means that fake history will be introduced to cause a bigger divide between groups in the country. History has always taken a beating in school throughout the years. It’s time to stop the nonsense. We can no longer whitewash what has happened over the centuries.

I overheard a lady who was homeschooling here child at a library. The daughter asked what happened to the Native American and her mother said they are all dead. I am only part native but a full blood was standing with me when the mother told the daughter that. I can honestly say we were dumbfounded. This is what passes as education in homeschool environment what about normal school.

Think about the nonsense they are trying to pass. Do you want your children to grow up without understanding the other people they live next too.

Throwing out the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Well if your really not paying attention your missing what’s really happening. Greene and Boebert are trying to divert you from comments made by the former president.

What do I mean? Maybe you haven’t seen or read about Hitler. Maybe you should see what he promised and wrote and did. Then maybe you would see why taking away your right to vote is bad among other things he proposes.

Dictators all practice from the same book. Putin, Hitler, and someone who should never be let back into power.

If your a Christian, why would you continue to listen to the GOP comments that show they in no way are Christians. They have turned into the party of destruction.

Republicans need to own this!

Seriously you have been plotting against the majority of Americans for a really long time to overthrow Roe vs. Wade. I may not be as eloquent as these men below, but I’m a women in agreement with them.

Please understand 69% of Americans think women should have the right to choose. If you people believe they shouldn’t be able to maybe you should raise there kids.

When you wish, and the pandemic takes it away.

Lots of us have had our dreams.

The Expo is in Dubai and for a historian anthropologist with health issues and financial issues thanks to ruthless bosses and the pandemic its the one thing I wave farewell to.

I’ve witnessed life go from liveable to horrible in a short space of time. Losing faith in humanity and the country I call home. But like Rome it’s crumbling to everyone’s dismay.

I hope it recovers and that the world comes together.

Bipartisan, only with the ones who aren’t crazy!

Jan 6th was just a couple of days back. The anniversary is a time of reflection and a discussion on what Democracy is. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights are what made this country strong. If you read the Federalist paper you have heard the struggle that started the country.

The Civil War has been misunderstood and issues have been perpetuated by people who want to influence those who haven’t heard the past.

What happened a year ago was not only wrong but the people who started this need to be held responsible. Those that carried out there will, should be punished for the disgraceful disrespect they showed a historic place and the people that work there and those from the past.

The people who started this were part of the hallowed halls and deserve as much punishment as those they influenced no matter what there official standing in government.

We will never have true bipartisanship until these agents of evil are gone from government.
