was my meaning conveyed?  transcriptionoist over the hill.

We live in an age where the redhawks and Trumps of the world can vomit up any words that come along and go with a “was my meaning conveyed” response. Interesting.

Especially now with so many fleeing that state.  

 

While on the topic of California.

 

 

 

 

Eff. 70M dollar deficit. crime spiking in cities.  Taxpayers, small businesses fleeing.   But they got the big issues handled.  

 

Made a law that mug shots have to use the pro nouns the person states they are.  this could get interesting.

 

With respect to an individual who has been arrested for any crime, this bill would require a police department or sheriff’s office, upon posting a booking photo on social media, to use the name and pronouns given by the individual arrested. The bill would authorize a police department or sheriff’s office to use other legal names or known aliases of an individual in limited specified circumstances.

Even CNN ran an article explaining how this crap is only making trump more popular and hurting the optics of the ones claiming to care about democracy as they use every angle possible to make sure the dude that got 75 million American votes, isn't on the ballot.  IF the dems policies, economy is so good, You should win on your actions.  your platform.  the results of said policies.

The Colorado Supreme Court’s decision Tuesday disqualifying former President Donald Trump from appearing on the state’s presidential ballot is breathtakingly foolish.

Damon Linker

Brenda Carpenter

"I say that as someone who considers Trump an aspiring authoritarian who poses a serious threat to democracy in America. Unfortunately, many people who agree with me in this judgment — including the lawyers who supported the gambit of arguing that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment bars Trump from running and the Colorado judges who were persuaded by it — believe the former president can be neutralized by appealing to a clause of the Constitution written to exclude members of an armed rebellion against the United States (who had surrendered after defeat in the Civil War) from holding office.

But this is an illusion. Trump fundamentally represents a political problem, which means he can only be beaten in the political arena. Efforts to take him down by other means will only make him stronger."

 

 

One needn’t be a populist to recognize what’s happening here: A solid majority of the Republican electorate wants Trump to be its nominee, but those who really wield power in our system have decided they will not permit it. So far this has only happened in Colorado. But now that a state has acted, courts in other states are sure to follow. I can’t think of a series of events more likely than this to shred the legitimacy of the judicial branch of government among Republican voters — and for good reason.

 

 

And that's only focusing on the redub voters.

 

Not the huge amount of people that distrust the cops/judges as seen with the defund police/BLM/Eff 12 riots.

ugh. chauvinistic much.

 

Ironic she has Fredrick Douglas on the wall in the picture.

 

Liberty is meaningless where the right to utter one's thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down. They know its power. Thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers, founded in injustice and wrong, are sure to tremble, if men are allowed to reason... Equally clear is the right to hear. To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker.

Frederick Douglass

 

Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.

Frederick Douglass

 

A man's rights rest in three boxes: the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box.

Frederick Douglass

 

Then was also friends with twain who had great quotes on democracy.

 

If voting made any difference they wouldn't let us do it.

Mark Twain

 

But in this country we have one great privilege which they don't have in other countries. When a thing gets to be absolutely unbearable the people can rise up and throw it off. That's the finest asset we've got - the ballot box.

Mark Twain

Happy New Year to those who don't want to live under a dictator.

 

In 1928, Adolf Hitler said: "We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity. Our movement is Christian."

 

Trumpers are now saying the exact same thing.

 

Their goal is a "pure" Christian nation, and for some of them it must be a Protestant nation.

 

Michael Flynn is calling for only one religion in America and if Trump wins, it's likely Flynn ends up part of the government. 

 

The most powerful Republican woman, MTG is a Christian Nationalist.

When Einstein gave lectures at U.S. universities, the recurring question that students asked him most was:

 

- Do you believe in God?

 

And he always answered:

 

- I believe in the God of Spinoza.

 

Baruch de Spinoza was a Dutch philosopher considered one of the great rationalists of 17th century philosophy, along with Descartes.

 

(Spinoza) : God would say:

Stop praying.

 

What I want you to do is go out into the world and enjoy your life. I want you to sing, have fun and enjoy everything I've made for you.

 

Stop going into those dark, cold temples that you built yourself and saying they are my house. My house is in the mountains, in the woods, rivers, lakes, beaches. That's where I live and there I express my love for you.

 

Stop blaming me for your miserable life; I never told you there was anything wrong with you or that you were a sinner, or that your sexuality was a bad thing. Sex is a gift I have given you and with which you can express your love, your ecstasy, your joy. So don't blame me for everything they made you believe.

 

Stop reading alleged sacred scriptures that have nothing to do with me. If you can't read me in a sunrise, in a landscape, in the look of your friends, in your son's eyes... ➤ you will find me in no book!

 

Stop asking me "will you tell me how to do my job?" Stop being so scared of me. I do not judge you or criticize you, nor get angry, or bothered. I am pure love.

 

Stop asking for forgiveness, there's nothing to forgive. If I made you... I filled you with passions, limitations, pleasures, feelings, needs, inconsistencies... free will.

 

How can I blame you if you respond to something I put in you? How can I punish you for being the way you are, if I'm the one who made you? Do you think I could create a place to burn all my children who behave badly for the rest of eternity? What kind of god would do that?

 

Respect your peers and don't do what you don't want for yourself. All I ask is that you pay attention in your life, that alertness is your guide.

 

My beloved, this life is not a test, not a step on the way, not a rehearsal, nor a prelude to paradise. This life is the only thing here and now and it is all you need.

 

I have set you absolutely free, no prizes or punishments, no sins or virtues, no one carries a marker, no one keeps a record.
You are absolutely free to create in your life. Heaven or hell.

 

➤ I can't tell you if there's anything after this life but I can give you a tip. Live as if there is not. As if this is your only chance to enjoy, to love, to exist.

 

So, if there's nothing after, then you will have enjoyed the opportunity I gave you. And if there is, rest assured that I won't ask if you behaved right or wrong, I'll ask. Did you like it? Did you have fun? What did you enjoy the most? What did you learn?...

 

Stop believing in me; believing is assuming, guessing, imagining. I don't want you to believe in me, I want you to believe in you. I want you to feel me in you when you kiss your beloved, when you tuck in your little girl, when you caress your dog, when you bathe in the sea.

 

Stop praising me, what kind of egomaniac God do you think I am?

I'm bored being praised. I'm tired of being thanked. Feeling grateful? Prove it by taking care of yourself, your health, your relationships, the world. Express your joy! That's the way to praise me.

 

Stop complicating things and repeating as a parakeet what you've been taught about me.

 

What do you need more miracles for? So many explanations?

 

The only thing for sure is that you are here, that you are alive, that this world is full of wonders.

- Spinoza
