A North Dakota sheriff just issued warrants against Jill Stein and her running mate for vandalising construction equipment. Actually, what they did was to spray graffiti on some bulldozers. The stupidity this shows is mindboggling. If they had just ignored it, well, Dr Jill would’ve gotten no publicity. Instead, it’s all over the social media, which is where this campaign is really taking place. The absolute mindnumbing STUPIDITY of the Dems and Repugs is just breathtaking. Oh, yes… the Libertarians are just Repugs on steroids… so, the stupidity sticks to them, too. This gained Dr Jill some votes… so, on balance, a good thing…
Dr Jill is the only candidate to go up to Dakota to support the First Nations people and their fight to protect their burial grounds and sacred sites from corporate vandalism. Dr Jill is the only candidate who agrees with the Native people that corporate polluters won’t contaminate our drinking water’s purity for the sake of filthy lucre. That tells you something. No decent person can vote for Chilly Hilly, Trump the Chump, or Scary Gary. In a four-way election, you needn’t get a majority to win. Dr Jill can be the New Honest Abe (in many ways). After all, he was an obscure “Third Party” candidate “with no chance of winning”… history does laugh at times, doesn’t it? God DOES have a sense of humour. What does this tell you about the Duopoly and its lapdog media? No one knows what’ll happen on Election Day… no one… we may all have a surprise…

30 October 2016. They’re NOT “Tribes”… They’re “Nations”… Treat Them That Way

The First Nations are precisely that… “Nations”… “Nationalities”… NOT “Tribes”. Note well how the Anglos treated and still treat them. It shows Anglo rhetoric to be hypocrisy and lies. What does that tell you about Anglos? Nothing good, I’d warrant… they did acquit the Bundys even though they seized public property by force of arms, didn’t they? It shows you that all-too-many Anglos still worship violence, armed coercion, a twisted definition of “freedom” (“I get to do what I want and you can’t say a thing about it”), and anarchic chaos (but stacked in favour of them, natch). Their “Exceptionalism” is evil of the highest order, their rants that America is “Indispensable” fly in the face of history, their claims that America is the absolute hegemon in the world are absurd and derisory, and their submission that they’re the sole moral actors in the world is vile and drooling pretence.
Stop the Dakota Access Pipeline… there are other routes for it. It’s nothing but the physical expression of Anglo hubris, arrogance, and greed. God do spare us…
