Well any of you who check me out will see that it’s been over six years since I was here. I just got so fed-up with the hypocrisy i.e. I dared to defend Ralph Nader & I was immediately excommunicated like I was the enemy. Not very liberal in my book? In my perhaps naive view, liberals are supposedly open-minded and can tolerate even sometimes welcome opposing views.
I didn’t drop off the map politically speaking but I did waste a lot of time & mental energy on Facebook and finally realized what a colossal waste of time it all was. And I now believe that Facebook is one of a handful of major factors in why we have Donald of the Duck Dynasty Klan in the oval office.
And I started up another blog because my first one was sold out from underneath me with no warning & they expected me to pay $2,000 to buy back my own domain name that I had built up.
Here’s a simple little piece I just wrote:
A Recipe for Disaster
Ingredients
“reality T.V.”
FOX “News”
Facebook
Twitter
Breitbart
Apathy
Willful ignorance
Half-cup of shameless republicans
Half-cup of spineless democrats
A good dose of post-literate society
“smart phones”
Google
Cup of Trump yeast
Mix thoroughly with a dash of conspiracy theory, Glenn Beck, & some Rush Limbaugh & ¼ cup of Alex Jones
Add a public education system constantly under attack
Blend all the ingredients in a terrorist mixing bowl & bake at Fahrenheit 9/11 for 40 years
Yield: A Nation Divided as badly as the American Civil War, if not worse?
