It's not about being liberal or conservative anymore y'all. That is a hype offered by the fascist whores who want to confuse the people with lies while they turn this country into an aristocratic police state. Some people will say anything to attain power and money. There is no such thing as the Liberal Media, but the Corporate media is very real.

Modern Diets means Cavities in your teeth

Click here for an interesting article on why modern humans get cavities even though they regularly brush their teeth.

Our dental health changed with our diets. Ancient humans and their hominin ancestors really didn’t have much of a problem with cavities. In fact, finding an ancient skull with a cavity is such a big deal that you can go and publish a whole paper just to show off the discovery. Unhappy smiles became more common only after the advent of farming led to humans eating a lot more carbs — a shift that went even further following the widespread availability of refined flour and sugar in the 19th century.

But in the past decade or so, scientists sequenced the DNA from ancient dental plaque and figured out that something else in our mouths was changing at the same time as our dental health. Turns out, there are specific strains of bacteria — streptococcus mutans, in particular — that are more common in mouths with cavities. And as human diets changed and cavities became more common, those bacteria started taking over our mouths. Our modern communities of oral bacteria are less diverse than our ancestors’ were, and they’re dominated by these cavity-causing strains.

Sheeple

Sheeple accept how freedom is defined to them by their chosen sources of information. Sheeple seek confirmation for their own ideological positions, and have been mentally trained to believe the framing of the economic system by the wealthy owners of multinational corporations. Sheeple think democracy is a voting consumer checking boxes or pushing a touch screen once every other year, and then are told that government is too corrupt to trust even while they shop at grocery stores where every item they purchase is owned by 5 or 6 corporations. Even while it is the money from the benieficiaries of monopolistic profit extraction that is how the politicians become corrupt in the first place. Any genuine legislator is then pigeon-holed or marginalized because the foxes in the hen house don't want cops on the beat who actually do their jobs.

They divide us with racism

A billionaire, a white guy & a Black guy sit at a table. The billionaire has a huge plate of cookies in front of him, the white guy has 1 cookie & the Black guy has none.

“Psssst!” the billionaire whispers. “That Black guy wants your cookie!”

Or as Ex-President Ex-Senate Majority Leader Texan Lyndon B Johnson used to say,"If you can convince a poor white man that he is better than a nigger, you can pick his pocket all day long."

Freedumb

The first part of this video is about a Tennessee parent from Williamson County who speaks in front of the school board completely trouncing the anti-mask parents with truth, even throwing their bible back at them, revealing them to be self-righteous hypocrites.

The second part is about this unmasked crowd harassing someone who had on a mask, with someone aggressively getting into it shouting "We know where you live."



Our nation is going crazy. Reactionary vigilante groups are waiting to start shooting guns. Are we really going to have a civil war because some people think addressing a global pandemic is stepping on their ... Freedumb? Really?

The fucking small pox virus nearly wiped out Native Americans.

Rethuglican view of government

You get to make decisions for yourself rather than the government, and we get to run the government in the interests of our wealthy patrons.

The evil of cars

If you want the cars off the roads, you have to build the public transportation infrastructure -- like in Tokyo or Paris or even NYC. The issue of using cars or not using cars is not a morality issue. It is the result of a short term desire by the large auto manufacturers in the 1930's and 1940's. Instead of building and improving the train networks, we sold cars and built interstates, and also ripped up a lot of train tracks on the West Coast. This was a social policy decision that is now biting us badly. if we need a new policy, blaming and shaming people who drive cars and getting excited about making places "car-free" doesn't address the problem at all.

In San francisco we get bus lane improvements to shave maybe 5 minutes of transit time and tunnels from a basketball stadium to a tourist location that eats up a billion dollars and still is not completed. Cosmetic improvements. And then we get Republicans who filibuster everything and back-stabbing Democrats who whine about deficits or some manufactured issue their corporate backers want them to say. Squabbling while our democracy whittles away and the Earth's eco-system is fraying at the ends.
