The invasion of the US

While it may not seem like it, as there are no foreign troops on the ground, don’t be fooled. The US has most assuredly been invaded by a foreign entity.
It's an invasion of our psyche, and of the principles that made this country so great. It’s an attack on our trusted institutions, casting doubt on what is real and what is contrived.
The truth is being manipulated, such that fact has become fiction, and fiction becomes fact, all designed to bring to light the underlying hatred and bigotry, which has existed in the US since our inception, dividing us even further and leading us into chaos.
Even our elected officials (knowingly or not), refuse to acknowledge it, and are fomenting these seeds of bigotry and distrust meant only to destroy the United States.
How did the we let this happen? How have so many become blind to it? Have our elected officials been so corrupted by money and power they don't care? (I know our president has.) Has racism and religious intolerance driven us to the point where reason has been discarded, and we can no longer accept anything that is different? (I think we have.)
The sad fact is there is so much misinformation out there, there is no way to separate fact from fiction anymore. Everything can be doctored and manipulated to present any point of view.
I don't have any answers (well actually I have a few, but.......). What I do know, is you can't believe anything you read or hear anymore, whether it be from the right, the left, or even the [so called] mainstream media. If I haven't seen it with my own eyes, it's probably been doctored or manipulated somehow, and didn't really happen the way it may appear.
You may not want to call it an invasion, but whatever you may choose to call what's happening in the US today, it's a sad day for democracy in the US, and I feel sorry for the younger generation, who will have to deal with the consequences.
And like I said in a previous post, stay vigilant, and be prepared!

History IS repeating itself

I didn't grow up during the rise and fall of Hitler and Nazi Germany, so for me to claim it feels like those are the times we are living in now, must be taken with a grain of salt. But I have seen enough movies, and read enough history to know, if the times we're living in now are not akin to the rise of a Nazism and Facism in Europe in the 1930's and 1940's, then we're not far off. If you can't see the parallels with Nazi Germany, then you must be living in a different country than me. Republicans and other right wing extremists will stop at nothing to subvert the will of the majority, forcing their beliefs, that they are the superior race and have been appointed by God, to impose their will on America, while they blame all our problems on immigrants, blacks and Jews. As I speak, Mitch McConnell, and his minions are raising roadblocks to all legislation designed to help average Americans under the guise of fiscal responsibility. They condone violent and verba...

Stop the stupidity!

Rural medical center (in Georgia) suspended from vaccination program after inoculating school district staff. Give me a break! Trying to get kids back to school, while protecting teachers, bus drivers and other staff, is exactly what school districts should be doing. If they have vaccines, give them out. We should be giving out vaccines to all who want them, whenever available. Trying to adhere to rigid guidelines will only result in fewer people getting vaccines, resulting in the discarding of precious vaccines, and less protection for everyone. Of course we should be giving first priority to healthcare workers, and any other essential public service employees, such as policeman, fireman, etc. first, but when they're not around to receive shots, or refuse shots, then give them to anyone willing to take them. What I would have objected to is the medical center trying to capitalize on the pandemic to make a profit, from giving vaccines to people far down the list of recipients, but ...

Fatigue! Part II - Maybe it is real?

Or it's actually Motivational Deficiency Disorder, MoDeD (pronounced Mo-Dee-Dee) for short. In a report this week by Roy Moynihan who reports for the British Medical Journal Austrailian scientists may have come across the reason for extreme laziness . The condition is claimed to affect up to one in five Australians and is characterised by overwhelming and debilitating apathy. Neuroscientists at the University of Newcastle in Australia say that in severe cases motivational deficiency disorder can be fatal, because the condition reduces the motivation to breathe. Neurologist Leth Argos is part of the team that has identified the disorder, which can be diagnosed using a combination of positron emission tomography and low scores on a motivation rating scale, previously validated in elite athletes. "This disorder is poorly understood," Professor Argos told the BMJ. "It is underdiagnosed and undertreated." Who knew? Maybe I have MoDeD, from my attempts to become a...
