The average person by an overwhelming majority in this country was sympathetic toward Floyd after his death. The average person by an overwhelming majority would admit that they believe that the police force in the country needs an enema, and that just like the Catholic Church should have done with rapey priests, cops that got off on abusing people should have been purged. But then it turns to riots and cities burn down, and then millions of people who never owned a gun before go out and buy one, leading to two months of record breaking gun sales. Though the race riots when Nixon was running for reelection were a lot worse than anything happening right now, that doesn't matter because of how the Legacy Media is covering them today. Fun Fact: Nixon won in a landslide. Not only winning by 18,000,000 more votes than McGovern and the widest popular vote margin in history, but securing 520 electoral college votes. Do Right, Be Right. :)

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

You know, you wouldn't have to be so aggravated by all those Texas republicans if you moved to demographics you liked better. What with all your money I'm sure it would be doable enough. And then we wouldn't have to put up with your insane - like, out of touch with reality insane - endless bitching about how Texas republicans created every bit of evil everywhere on the planet, all the way back to Genesis.

And you wouldn't keep being aggravated, and maybe you would even start to recover. I'm sure you could find the perfect location somewhere here. Hollywood sounds like it might do the trick, or San Fran, or Santa Clara Valley (Silicon Valley).

Quote:We are in the midst of an unprecedented national catastrophe. The catastrophe is not the pandemic, or an economic depression, or killer cops, or looted cities, or racial inequities. These are all too precedented. What’s unprecedented is that never before have we been led by a man who so completely inverts the spirit of Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address: With malice toward all; with charity for none: eight words that encapsulate everything this president is, does and stands for. ….And at a moment when many Americans, particularly conservatives, are aghast at the outbursts of looting and rioting that have come in the wake of peaceful protests, we have a president who wants to replace rule of law with rule by the gun. If Trump now faces a revolt by the Pentagon’s civilian and military leadership (both current and former) against his desire to deploy active-duty troops in American cities, it’s because his words continue to drain whatever is left of his credibility as commander in chief.

Do Right, Be Right. :)What will you do to yourself if Trump loses? His chance of winning is only 42% tonight. If he wins I'll be celebrating the additional material wealth he will be sending my way. Too bad there will be nothing tangible for you, but there is the emotional payoff. I be happy with the money. https://odds.watch/trump-2020 The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at www.mediafire.com/folder/1uwh75oa407q8/Firefly

In all these years I never thought of Trump as the actual problem with America. Back in the 70's it wasn't Nixon who was the problem for America. It was people like you, more than a hundred million, who have always been the main problem, for themselves and America. Calling me a liar a thousand times is just one of the ways your thinking is highly defective, which makes you a problem for the country. There is a nice article about how countries and a large fraction of their citizens get themselves into deep trouble for psychological, not ideological, reasons:

Quote:Martin Gugino is still in critical condition as the president tweets wildly unfounded claims about the man’s run-in with police. President Donald Trump spread an unfounded conspiracy theory Tuesday, suggesting that a 75-year-old man who is in critical condition after he was shoved to the ground at a protest by Buffalo, New York, police on June 4 is actually an “antifa provocateur.” The president was referring to a viral video of an incident showing police knocking over 75-year-old Martin Gugino while attempting to control protests against police violence in the western New York city. After being pushed by an officer, Gugino fell, appearing to hit his head on a sidewalk, and was ignored by dozens of officers as he bled from his ear, motionless.

Quote:The period covered was roughly the same as the Red-Scare years that began with the Dies Committee and ended with the Senate censure of Joseph McCarthy in 1954. As a result, the organized Left inveighed against what it called "Truman's War," and urged us to get the hell out of Korea; the official Right not only supported the war but considered it perhaps the most crucial element in the battle against the godless Communists. In writing the story, all I wanted to do was point out what a really awful thing it was to be a Korean in such a situation.

If beating Communism had truly been important to Americans, they won’t have quit fighting after only 36,516 dead Americans in 4 years. Flu kills more in some years. Covid-19 kills more and those deaths are meaningless, not a noble sacrifice to beat the Commies and save Korea.)
