Well, that was a hopeless and depressing read; depicting the situation even worse than I thought. Yet, I know so many people who are educated with good jobs, citizens, etc., that are oblivious to everything you said and think I am a "radical" as a person with midwestern Catholic values from the 50's when I was a teen. Do they want to avoid reality or is there something I am not getting? I am truly stymied.
I guess most of what I write fits into the depressing category, Vicki. Our bleak reality is what it is. I think that those who have profited the most from this rigged system are naturally going to trust in it. They don't want to hear any discouraging words about the system that has been "berry, berry good" to them, to quote Chico Esquela. Thanks.
I was happy and enlightened to read every word. I didn't realize it was THAT bad. Maybe you are correct about the 1% and those others who listen to msm and those ignoramus talking heads. I can only watch for maybe three minutes...the Joy Reid's, etc. and I think she may have gone to Harvard too but then again......???
Also, it is interesting how the regime has tainted history and trumped up individuals we are to worship. Like Lincoln- who for me is a tyrant. Well they are all tyrants but Americans have their pornography and pot so they cannot be bothered with the boot that kicks them.
I documented Lincoln's tyranny in "Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963," Vicki. And there is more on that, along with more exposes of other tyrants like Wilson and FDR, in my upcoming "American Memory Hole." Thanks.
I guess I really never dug deeply into the civil war or tyrants although my husband had a huge collection of information that we eventually donated to the local library so now I am compelled to find out more. Your books are a start. Thanks.
I never did either, Vicki. I worshiped Lincoln like everyone else. Then I found "The South was Right!" by the Kennedy brothers in the public library of all places. Thanks!
Forced conscription for starters. And the unfair taxation on the south enriched his northern cronies while destroying the life of Americans in the South.
Mike, others have asked me about a good book on Huey. I wish one existed. The media despised him, and this includes the publishing industry. I'm not tooting my own horn in saying what I wrote about him in "Survival of the Richest" is the only accurate information on him in the published record that I know about. If there is anything else out there, I hope someone lets me know. Thanks!
"I am beginning to believe Whites are the dumbest race ever to walk the face of the earth. What other race of people have ever openly applauded their extinction, and engaged in nonstop self-hatred?"
This is well said, I have white liberal friends that have actually said they feel guilty for being white!
They think our open borders are ok, nothing to see here. They hate Trump so much, they would vote for my dog for President, as long as his name isn't Trump. Then again, they think NPR and Public Television tells the truth. That is their main news source. Sending them articles about the whistle blower at NPR made zero impression. Crickets heard from the left. I try to give people the freedom to think what they want, I have lost respect for many friends in the past 5 years! It is sad for us and America!
As always I enjoyed your writing. Stupidity is everywhere. I agree that the only way to turn this around is at the local level but as you mentioned the people surrounding us for the most part are buying into the Psyop. I have a hard time talking with my daughter who has an engineering degree and works for a fortune 500 company. I think you are a fairly reasonable person who does exaggerate at times to make his point ( you are in good company with Gore Vidal). My daughter reads your columns and gets very upset and ask me why I read them. I tell everyone has a right to express their opinion and I probably Agee with about 90% of your positions. At least we can still discuss events but it is getting harder. God bless you and your readers.
Well, I'm glad you enjoy my writing, Dennis, even if your daughter doesn't. Perhaps one day I'll write something she likes. The fact she has an engineering degree and presumably is well paid probably contributes to that. The more successful one is, the less likely they are to be swayed by rabble rousers like me. Thanks.
She went to college in Boston at a very good but very liberal university so she is all about diversity. You wrote a column which skewered some Biden transsexuals appointees. She was upset because you presented them as ridiculous(which there were)
She felt we should be helping them not making fun. Unfortunately the lunatics have taken over the asylum so I expect I will be the one institutionalized.
She might like my book "Bullyocracy." That whole book is an indictment of how the system mistreats the ultimate victims. I didn't really mention transgenders, because they just weren't in the news yet, but I think she could relate to it. Thanks.
The only way to turn this around is in a hermitage 30 miles from the nearest QuikTrip. Give me my dog, my fire, and my cabin and I'll check back in 2045.
Thanks Don. It's frustrating when we are surrounded by fools and idiots 24-7. As Ron White says, "You can't fix stupid". (But these days, stupid is purposely mandated and required by the New World Order).
You mention Lounden County? Just up the road on Hwy 7 is Winchester, Va., the home of country superstar Patsy Cline. Winchester, VA was also the home of one of my favorite authors, Joe Bageant.
Joe was aware of these same fools and idiots way back in the 50's, as well as the hardship and misery they caused humanity. In 2007 he wrote a couple of my favorite books: "Deer Hunting With Jesus", "Rainbow Pie: A Redneck Memoir " and "Waltzing At The Doomsday Ball".
The world is in a hell of a fix and I'm not sure anything can be done to stop it at this late date. We are only weeks away from the political conventions. The Democrat Convention in Chicago in August is sure to be 9mm-firebomb slugfest. I'm not even sure if there will be an election. I just keep holding on...hanging on to pins and needles.
Wow. So much truth to digest and add to. In the name of brevity, I say Alex Jones is the example to the masses not to question or respond to those in power.
Be careful with the results of IQ tests. Their original purpose was to give a “scientific” basis for prejudice and though we’re past that, it’s almost impossible to create a test that doesn’t measure either past learning or cultural preference. IMHO, the gold standard (WAIS-IV and WISC) still fall short of the ideal. TONI-4 attempts to get around the limits of language but has other limitations. (Remember that I was a teacher of students with disabilities, so I bumped again these things over and over again.)
One does not need a village to dupe the public. All it takes is a television and one news anchor. I used to be as stupid as the day is long. When Three Mile Island melted down, the National Media made it sound like Harrisburg was going to end up like Hiroshima. Everybody on my block was gone by the end of the week. Meanwhile, exactly what I expected happened- nothing. Even with high school physics- if they want to keep the story straight- a plutonium or Uranium Isotope 235 reactor cannot go into an absolutely uncontrolled chain reaction because there is too much heavy water to absorb the neutrons. (Of course, at this point I do think "Atomic Weapons" are fake and ghey, but I digress...) At any rate, I knew the news media was lying about TMI, just as they were lying about the popularity of the pro-life movement. But I thought they were telling the truth about everything else... silly me.
I've never understood the obsession with forrestal.
Jew haters seem to obsess on him.
Your Somali imports via the Lutheran Brotherhood are now beating up Christians.
Would be a good idea to get Lutheran Brotherhood back in line but you're too busy obsessing about Jews.
I've barely begun with Christianity
"A young man, wearing nothing but a linen garment, was following Jesus. When they seized him, he fled naked, leaving his garment behind" (Mark 14:51-52). We find this story in Mark's Gospel right after the account of Jesus's arrest, and it's one of the least understood narratives in the entire New Testament.

No writer could ask for more than that, Vicki. Thank you!
Also, it is interesting how the regime has tainted history and trumped up individuals we are to worship. Like Lincoln- who for me is a tyrant. Well they are all tyrants but Americans have their pornography and pot so they cannot be bothered with the boot that kicks them.
Lincoln is a tyrant? How so?
I documented Lincoln's tyranny in "Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963," Vicki. And there is more on that, along with more exposes of other tyrants like Wilson and FDR, in my upcoming "American Memory Hole." Thanks.

Lincoln actually did what they accused Hitler of doing. He oversaw Sherman making Georgia howl and Sheridan making Virginia weep.
The Union Soldiers were committing atrocious atrocities that would make the Gestapo blush.
Forced conscription for starters. And the unfair taxation on the south enriched his northern cronies while destroying the life of Americans in the South.
I hope you'll check out my upcoming book "American Memory Hole," Mike. Lots more about the crimes of Lincoln. Thanks.
Donald, can you recommend a novel about Huey Long?? I want to learn about him as what I was taught seems wrong.
Mike, others have asked me about a good book on Huey. I wish one existed. The media despised him, and this includes the publishing industry. I'm not tooting my own horn in saying what I wrote about him in "Survival of the Richest" is the only accurate information on him in the published record that I know about. If there is anything else out there, I hope someone lets me know. Thanks!
I thought "American Memory Hole" was coming out on August 13th. Has it been delayed?
Now August 27. Thanks.
I wish I could get it signed!!!
Since I don't live near most people who want my books signed, I'm always happy to sign it if you mail it to me. Thanks.
Another beautiful piece Don! You write some of the best lines ever,
Sorry I got cut off...

We're not far from the Salem witch burnings with rainbow dressed transhumans standing there with eyes gleaming and salivating mouths.

Winchester is only about an hour from me, Liber8or. Thanks.

Challenging as usual. :-)

Any sentence that begins with the word 'we need to' is gaslighting!
? One of my sentences?
No, I just meant when Hillary says 'our democracy,' 'we need to,' Etc. They love to lead with the pronoun 'we' meaning 'you' eat the bugs.
Oh, okay. I get easily confused lol. They also like to say "we don't know" or "we know." Thanks!
