Random Musings on Current Events 2.17.23

Once again it is time for some Random Musings On Current Events from the mind of a quiet, unassuming (at least in my own opinion) person observing the ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in the media from behind the lines in an increasingly blue state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in a sort of stream of conscious journal format.

It seems the Chinese Communist Party or a hobbyist has launched another balloon, however, this time it was shot down near the Aleutian Islands just as soon as it entered United States airspace and now yet another balloon has been shot down over Lake Huron. I have to ask why is the Air Force wasting missiles shooting these down? Why can’t they use canons to shoot these down? Am I missing something? Wouldn’t shooting down the balloons with canons be a great training opportunity and cost much less?

I watched the Super Bowl but did not watch the half time show but instead chose to play cards with family. Evidently, I did not miss much after reading the reports of the show and it did not surprise me considering the state of entertainment in the nation.

I have to ask why there is a Black National Anthem (This will be the last time I capitalize this item to avoid the appearance of legitimizing it.) and why it was allowed to be played at the Super Bowl? For me it is nothing but divisive to allow it to be played. Has there and is there discrimination based on race? Yes, there is no disputing this fact but now we are allowing a parallel anthem to be played alongside our national anthem? Think about the impact this has on the country. Yet again I must wonder why I am watching and supporting the NFL? This playing of the black national anthem has nothing to do with uniting the country and everything to do with dividing the country. In fact, I have to wonder if the Chinese are behind and supporting the groups or whatnot that insisted the black national anthem be played at the beginning of the game. After all, Lebron James was in attendance and somehow crowned himself king of something and everyone knows he is a shill for the CCP along with the NBA. Also, let us not forget that the Han Chinese are a very racist ethnic group as is I would imagine LeBron James is as well.

I am getting caught up on the train car derailment, spill, and burning of the toxic vinyl chloride in East Palestine, Ohio news and have more questions than answers at this time. Least of which is why was over a 100,000 pounds of a substance that when burned releases phosgene gas, hydrogen chloride, and other toxic substances allowed to happen and, in fact, dictated to happen? Yet again the public relations around this incident are eerily similar to the public relations surrounding the Three Mile Island nuclear incident that occurred over a generation ago in Pennsylvania. We have a dangerous substance that control over was lost (leak), the owners who lost control telling us everything is OK, and the state and federal government trying to catch up and repeat the talking points of the owner(s). All the while independent reports of residence reporting dead wildlife, the Ohio National Guard arresting independent journalists, and other incidents that point to a cover up and or repression of facts are ongoing. I will say again and will say again and again it does not matter what anyone in leadership does, necessarily, appearances can mean everything which is why our leaders should hold themselves up beyond reproach. Will they? I doubt it in today’s environment.

One fact that I do know is that rail transport falls under the purview and regulation of the United States Department of Transportation and that perhaps the Secretary of Transportation should spend a little more time learning about transportation in the country rather than speaking empty platitudes about race, sexual proclivities and “equity”. This is just yet another incident in a growing list of incidents that shows Mr. Buttigieg is nothing more than an empty suit who was hired because of the political party that he belongs to and because of his homosexuality because it certainly had nothing to do with his experience or competence or his willingness to learn what his job really entails. Not only that it appears he is a chicken sh*t along with the Governor of Ohio, and Norfolk Southern executives who refused to attend the East Palestine, OH townhall.

Moving along as the week progressed there have been a few more “toxic incidents”, for lack of a better descriptor. A tanker truck with acid rolling over in Tucson, Arizona, a large amount of plastic planters burning near Orlando, Florida, and another train derailing near Detroit, Michigan for instance that I am aware of. A few years ago I began to see the pattern of organization behind the near simultaneous and scripted release of news by the main stream media, then the “spontaneous” race riots, and now I am getting a niggling sense that these “chemical release accidents” seem to be happening in a coordinated manner. A few years ago I would have dismissed this unsubstantiated intuitive feeling as nonsense. However, this intuitive feeling was proven right as evidence the FBI and DOJ have been colluding with main stream media and big tech, the obvious preplanning and staging for the “spontaneous” ANITFA riots in the Summer of Love along their attempts this past month in response to the Memphis police atrocity. So, therefore, why would it be a stretch to imagine these toxic incidents happening within a short time of each other are not a coordinated attack of sorts.

Of course, let me back up, I must remember, that the ruling globalist elites that currently run our government would never do anything to harm our citizenry. After all, they were not responsible for the release of a man made genetically altered Covi-SARs virus, the subsequent economy crushing lockdowns, and the pushing of an untested new technology to be injected into billions of people. Nah, they are completely benevolent and spend all of the money that we are forced to send them in the guise of taxes at the point of a gun in a benevolent manner.

In conclusion, this week I am grappling with a fundamental problem that we face in the United States. Currently, it seems as if I am yelling into an echo chamber much as many of the people who agree with me on various podcasts, blogs, Substacks etc. seem to be doing. While those who believe the tripe being peddled by the mainstream media etc. are yelling into their own echo chambers. Of course, I would like to think that I bring reason, cause and effect, and logic to my conclusions after shaking free of the hypnotic effect of the “mainstream”. Therefore, a fundamental problem, as I see it, is how does one break the hypnotic power of big tech and the mainstream media? Perhaps I need to look inside to determine how I was able to break free and somehow share this process? I know there are many other ways and fortunately many are working this problem. It just seems to me there are more ways that just have not been revealed to me yet? I will continue to pray, discuss, and meditate on this problem in the coming days, weeks, months, and years if need be.

God bless America, all her citizens and residents, no matter whether they are enemies, not enemies or somewhere in between. Additionally, forgive me my trespasses as I forgive those who trespass against me.

Memorial Day 2021

I sit at my desk as the 11:00 hour approaches on Memorial Day knowing that at that time memorial services will begin at my local Veteran’s Cemetery. This is an event that I first attended two years ago and found it something that I want to attend every year. However, it seems that my desires are being thwarted first by the shutdowns last year inspired by the SARS-CoV-2 introduction to the world and this year because I refuse to wear a useless mask outside in ninety plus degree weather as is being required at the cemetery. A mask that provides as much protection as replacing the screens in my windows with chain link fence and expecting it to keep out flies and mosquitos.

As news breaks in the mainstream media that the SARS-CoV-2 appears to have been leaked for whatever reason out of the lab in Wuhan, China I must ask myself, “Why now?” Hasn’t it been readily apparent from day one that something strange was going on? I must ask myself why is the mainstream media just now reporting on this occurrence? What really is going on that the smokescreen of the leak is being laid to distract and or hide?

Moving on, it was at this time last year that I was beginning to doubt the response to the virus and the shutdowns that were being imposed on the American people and the entire world. Fortunately for me I live in a rural place and so last year I had plenty of space outside to do activities and other than not being able to attend social and memorial functions I was not too inconvenienced. However, I was starting to question the wisdom of increased shutdowns, the apparent subjective application of the term “essential business”, the potential damage to the economy, and the riots that were beginning in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death. Little did I know at the time that a massive upset in my nation and the world was just beginning?

Now, a year later, as I pause to remember those who have given their lives in defense of my country and of which I personally have known a couple, I must ask myself what have I learned in the past year? I will not discuss what my actions will be based on what I have learned because to be quite honest, for reasons that I will disclose, a state of war exists in my country. Though it is not an overtly hot war at this point it is at best a cold war whether we want to admit it or not and sides will need to be taken if not already having been chosen.cd

In the last year it has become obvious to me that the leadership of the Centers for Disease and Control, the National Institutes for Health, and the Food and Drug Administration do not have my best interest at heart. These people are public officials with quite frankly vast amounts of bureaucratic power and except for Senator Paul there seems to be little appetite to hold them accountable or audit their business. Their public business which as supposed stewards of public trust they absolutely should be open to. It is apparent to me that these leaders are beholden to lobbyists, special interests (i.e., Big Pharma), and their own lust and greed for power. I am shocked that Senator Paul has received death threats in the aftermath of his question of Anthony Fauci!

I was struck this morning as I finally read The Nuremberg Code of 1947 and quite honestly, I felt my blood begin to boil and my thoughts coalesce into a somewhat rational train of thought. A rational train of thought that I have found difficult to form since the events of January 6, 2021. For those who may read this and are unaware of the Nuremberg Code of 1947 as I was until recently it is essentially a code developed out of the post-World War II trials of medical professionals who experimented on human subjects in the concentration camps. Specifically, article 3 of the code states, “The experiment should be so designed and based on the results of animal experimentation and a knowledge of the natural history of the disease or other problem under study that the anticipated results justify the performance of the experiment”. To me the use of mRNA technology on humans is an experiment as this technology has never, to my knowledge, made it out of animal trials. Then suddenly, because of a declared “pandemic” to a virus with a 99.9% survivability rate and with treatments available (despite being debunked by a paper fabricated on lies and false science published in The Lancet) animal trials are foregone in the name of an “emergency” declaration by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). To me this makes the leaders of the FDA and their corporate sponsors who lobbied for and approved this declaration accusable as war criminals according to the Nuremberg Code. What you have done is more than just committed political crimes to me you have committed crimes against humanity.

Which leads me to another item which has become obvious to me. The International Socialist-Progressive-ANTIFA-Marxist-Communist (I-SPAMC) movement will stop at nothing to keep and obtain power. It is obvious to me that Big Tech is working with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the CCP has corrupted many of our politicians on both sides of the aisle (i.e., Rep Pelosi, Sen McConnell and etc.). I also feel that the United States Supreme Court has been corrupted as evidenced by their refusal to even hear arguments in any of the election fraud cases.

Which leads me to another item, and this is the 2020 election, its execution, and the subsequent acceptance of it by Congress and the supposed “insurrection” on January 6, 2021. First, the “insurrection” to me was such an obvious false flag event that there is nothing anyone can say to me anymore that will dissuade or change my thoughts on this. Rioting in major cities agitated by left wing Marxists (SPAMC) was allowed all summer under the guise of “racial equality” in which businesses were looted and destroyed. This after businesses were forced to shutter for longer than the initial ninety days for a virus that had a greater than 99.9% survivability rate for the majority of the population and this was not called an insurrection? Further, this shuttering continued all winter in states controlled SPAMC controlled governors! Bullshit! You who would try to convince me that a peaceful march on the capitol was an insurrection while the destruction in our cities fomented by left wing Marxist (SPAMC) groups was not an insurrection are a domestic enemy. Let us not forget the only real death during the day as a direct result of the Capitol breach was that of a young veteran who was shot by a member of the Capitol Police who was wearing a BLM bracelet and who, to my knowledge, has never had an investigation performed regarding their actions and has remained anonymous. You domestic enemies of the United States are using the weapon of narrative to try and confuse the issue but for me it is not working!

I shake my head in disbelief at the members in Congress who “feared for their lives” during the supposed “insurrection”. An “insurrection” in which from what I understand truly little was damaged or stolen except for, perhaps, Representative Pelosi’s laptops. To me it looks like a covert operation again Grandma Nancy and our nation. What about the fear, sadness, and anger of the business owners who lost their businesses in the last year due to the SARS-CoV-2 inspired shutdowns and SPAMC agitated violent riots? Where is the outrage to this in the media? Well let me tell you what I think. Big Media and Big Tech your total disregard for these business owners and their plight makes you a domestic enemy. Your silence is consent to the SPAMC movement and your outright censorship are the actions of a domestic enemy.

To the “woke” corporations, politicians, bureaucrats, community members, and military leadership you are now my enemy. You are proponents of mail in ballots in which no form of identification needs to be provided by anyone to cast a vote. A system so open to fraud and abuse and yet I cannot open a bank account or fly on an airplane without providing identification. In fact, I cannot fly on an airplane without first obtaining a form of identification that requires me to prove my citizenship yet I can vote by just being home when the mail arrives? Umm, something is wrong with this picture. You who support this sham are guilty of disenfranchising my vote and I now consider you to be my political enemies. Further you run a race baiting scam in the guise of Critical Race Theory in which you seek to change history so that you can rewrite and change it at your whim. This right out of an Orwellian/Dystopian/Soviet playbook. You are running a sham in accordance with the I-SPAMC playbook to increase and or maintain your power at my countries expense and so, therefore, you are a domestic enemy.

Lastly, Big Media, I drove through Portland, Oregon in the last few months and was struck by the size of the city and the relatively small area that the insurrection has been occurring in that city. The conclusion that I came to is that if the leadership of that city really wanted to quell the insurrection, they could do it in mere hours. I have concluded that the leaders of Portland and perhaps by extension the state of Oregon just do not want to quell the insurrection. They either lack the political will, intestinal fortitude and or are complicit in the insurrection. This also goes for the leaders in the other cities of our nation who allowed the riots to go on ad infinitum last summer. There is no will to stop them and now I consider these leaders and the powers behind them to be domestic enemies. Big Media I consider you to be complicit in this as well because you are making money selling advertisements because of the strife in these cities caused by the SPAMC movement. You do not allow the opposing (my view) airtime and engage in censorship of any view not in line with your corporate and intellectual I-SPAMC masters and so I now also consider you to be domestic enemies from this point forward. It is now 12:00 PM and I have risen my flag back to full staff from its half-mast position. The half-masted flag flown in honor of the fallen.

Death Cult

In the not too distant past, we learned and heard that ISIS or Daesh was a death cult. A label placed on this organization by our press and media. I have taken the time to look up and see if there is a formal definition of the term “death cult” and the most objective definition I was able to find is, “a fringe religious group that glorifies or is obsessed with death” courtesy of lexico.com. I think we can see why this descriptor was applied to Daesh as they spread their death and destruction across Syria and Iraq. They left nothing but death and destruction in their wake. I will submit that the German Nazi Party in the first half of the twentieth century, the Soviet Communist Party, the Maoist Chinese Communist Party and Cambodia’s Khmer Rouge could also be defined as a death cults. Though they would never consider themselves religious groups they based their power by preying on the fear of death in human beings. They not only threatened death but implemented and carried through with their threats. In the process they were responsible for the destruction of much of Europe and Asia which included tens of millions of deaths.

Yesterday morning as I woke up to the news of rioting and looting in Philadelphia ostensibly because of another police shooting of a black man the concept of death cult rummaged in my mind. These rioters and looters paid no mind to the fact that the black man shot was wielding a knife and coming at police officers. This and video footage showing the police officers actually backed away from the assailant in an effort to defuse the situation. Now we have yet another city run by Democrats in the throes of rioting and looting that will drain the life out of that city. I say this will drain the life out of the city because I can imagine very few of the businesses will want to reopen once the smoke clears, the glass is cleaned up, and the insurance claims are filed. Let us not forget that business is the life blood of communities, states, our country, and our way of life. I say business is the life blood because it is business that generates the wealth that funds and feeds our communities and even our governments. Business is the ultimate expression in freedom and innovation. Freedom because we have choices with who to do our business seeking out the best value for our money and innovation because the successful businesses will innovate to provide this value for the least amount of cost to the business owner. This so that they can number one pay for their expenses and number two profit from the sale of their product or products. These profits, in turn, are used to seek other services or goods supporting yet even more business. Like a healthy freshwater lake when water is flowing in and water is flowing out the water of the lake retains its vitality and is capable of supporting life.

Since I have started on the metaphor of lakes, I must point out that death occurs even in healthy lakes. Unfortunately, death is still a part of life especially in the material world that we live in. Eventually all biological beings expire and on top of that all biological processes generate waste. Even in the healthiest of mountain lakes biological processes continue and death occurs. What I will submit for the sake of my current argument, however, is the introduction of fresh water to the lake and subsequently the free flow of water from the lake allows waste products to easily flow out and at the same be replenished by and diluted by the fresh water flowing into the lake. All the while life continues and flourishes. However, in the unhealthy lake water typically does not flow out as freely or fresh water into the lake is completely shut off. When the water is not allowed to flow out the lake will eventually become brackish, swamp like, and otherwise much unhealthier for normal oxygen breathing creatures to survive. Likewise, when fresh water does not flow into the lake the lake will dry up and eventually die.

Likewise, from the bodies of ideas and politics, I believe, can be drawn comparisons to the examples of fresh water, brackish or dried up bodies of water. I will submit that the societies with the freshest of ideas continually replenishing the existing bodies of ideas lead to the healthiest societies and in parallel the freshest of political institutions are characterized by the free flowing of ideas in and out of the body politic of these societies. It is when the flow of ideas into the body politic is shut off or restricted that the body becomes brackish, polluted, suffocating, oppressive and unable to support healthy life. Or, in the extreme case, when the ideas are allowed to leave without any fresh ideas to replenishing the body politic the body politic has entered a death spiral that will inevitably lead to the body drying up completely leaving nothing behind but dried up brittle crusty sand.

Currently in our country we have huge out of control media conglomerates and internet behemoths who seem intent to shut out ideas counter to the opinions of the intellectuals and or ownership of these organizations. All the while, at least in the case of the internet behemoths, they enjoy the protections of law.  In the case of media, they seem intent to quash any news counter to the narrative the intellectuals who fuel their opinion. This while they claim to be objective purveyors of news. They have, in fact, almost seem to have doubled down on their claims and efforts to suppress and stymie the conservative message at every opportunity despite being called out and proven to be carrying out their seemingly nefarious actions. I will submit to my readers that because of this suppression we as a nation are precariously close to witnessing the death of the bastion of fresh thoughts, ideas, speech, and all other freedoms. We are precariously close to watching “the swamp” expand its poisonous life draining ideas and norms to the rest of the country.

Speaking of poison, I come back to the topic of the death cult. Let me remind you that the most objective definition that I found for the term death cult is, “a fringe religious group that glorifies or is obsessed with death”. I would submit that it appears with the suppression of opposing ideas in most of the media, the internet behemoths, the constant rioting and looting in democratically controlled riotous cities, and the obsession with Covid and their subsequent desire to shut down all business that the left is under the control of a death cult. No, they will never admit they are religions but as I have written about in the past, socialism is a religion. I say they are a religion because they expect blind servitude based on faith in the party or progressive ideals and have no proof to back up their claims of social utopia. So we have a very powerful group of people in this country who seem intent to usher in the death of the US Constitution and will use death and our fear of death in the guise of Covid 19 to bring death to our economy. Additionally, they use the death of black men to stage and support riotous looting behavior which in turn brings about the death of businesses which are the hallmark of lively prosperous communities. I see nothing positive or prosperous coming out of this except more death and destruction and this alarms me. This alarms me because I enjoy and give thanks for every day of life, the food that supports life, the means by which I have to support life, and for those in my life who I love. I also miss the freedoms to move freely in society without fear of retribution for not wearing a mask, attending live worship, sporting and music events, and all other manner of life sustaining group activities in which the free exchange of ideas, discourse, and social interaction occur. All the groundwork for the death cult to flourish even more seems be laid and the outcome cannot be good for any of us.

Random Musings 10.20.2020

Once again it is time for some Twitter (for those with a litigious bent there is a trademark symbol just after the “r” in the previous word) like random musings from the mind of a quiet, unassuming, at least in my own opinion, person observing the ramblings, rumblings and revelations in the media. Additionally, it appears that Twitter would most likely censor what I have to say any way and Facebook certainly would censor what I have to say.

I have been quiet the past couple of weeks because I, quite frankly, need a break from all of the junk on the news coming from both sides. However, I just watched the Clint Eastwood story of Richard Jewell, the security guard initially accused of planting the bomb at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. Needless to say, the movie left me angry and reminded me and brought my mind back to current events. Specifically, what brought my attention back is how in the story and unholy alliance between and FBI agent and a member of the press unleashed a witch hunt on an innocent man. An innocent man who was smeared and whose family was put through a press fueled ringer. All this for a crime committed by a man who later plead guilty to the crime.

So, if this happened more than 24 years ago how am I to believe, in today’s world anything that the FBI or government bureaucrats say? How am I to be expected to believe anything that the media says? So, now we have the FBI who spied on citizen and President Trump based on trumped up (all pun intended) charges when they claim Russian interference is responsible for Hunter Biden’s computer being left at a computer repair shop? How am I to believe all the major press outlets print and digital with the exception of Fox News and the New York Post? How am I supposed to believe all who appear to be in an all-out blitz to prevent President Trump from being reelected?

Oh yes, has anyone else found it fascinating that COVID cases are on the rise within mere weeks of the election?

Governor Newsome is now recommending that Thanksgiving celebrations in California? I am shaking my head.

I also have been traveling and have in fact flow into and a little out of the swamp of Washington DC in the last week and perhaps this is why I can not longer avoid the news and have to write something. It seeps out of the television and where I am staying, I am seeing BLM t shirts and hats being worn by people openly. I have to admit that my first thoughts are to ask if the people wearing them understand that they are supporting a Marxist organization?

Also, I have been watching CSPAN 2 the last couple of mornings and have to admit that I am unsure what to say. On one morning being interviewed by Karen Tumotty of the Washington Post were the coauthors of a book called Presidents, Populism, and Crisis of Democracy: Terry Moe and William Howell. This morning a woman named Tara McGowen was one of the people being interviewed and each morning the named people were Progressive apologists and supporters of the Progressive movement. Again, I felt a visceral reaction as these people are quite eloquent and truly believe in what they are saying. To be honest this is what frightens me. This frightens me because I do not believe these intellectuals really give a rip about me nor do they understand the laws of physics. I think these people truly believe that because they say something it is true and if anyone disagrees with them, they will do whatever it takes to suppress opposing views. Perhaps, they are being paid by Facebook, Google, and or Amazon? This is a small example of the problem that exists in our institutes of higher learning. Their minds are made up and using circular logic they are professing to know what is best for me.

Good on the Justice Department for filing a suit against Google. I am still waiting to see how people who ran a coup against a duly elected President are going to pay for their crimes.

I think I may have a new byline for my home page, and it is going to be something like, “Eventually the laws of physics will trump the laws of man”. The question is when and in what form will the laws of physics push back and slap the laws of man in the face?

All Lives Matter!!!

All lives matter!!! There I said it and you can call me racist if you want but deep down you know and I know that just because I said that I am not a racist. No, quite the contrary, by my saying that I am proving that I am not a racist. You who would call be a racist are, quite the contrary, a racist. I say you are a racist because you call attention to race before calling attention to anything else. You do not prioritize looking at the value I provide to society, you do not look to see if I am fundamentally a good person or a complete sociopathic drain on society, you do not look at whether I am a family man or an egotistical self-absorbed megalomaniac, nor you do not look at any other objective classifications of my contribution to society as a whole. No! Your first valuation of me is based on my race and that makes you a racist!

I have to admit that this so called Black Lives Matter movement put me back on my heels, and I would submit much of the country, much as a person who suffers a sucker punch is put back on their heels and really is shocked, bewildered, and suddenly finds themselves trying to understand what just happened. Fine, this is a natural reaction but what happens after the initial sucker punch is what really matters is what the two people do after the initial sucker punch. Will the initiator of the punch continue to pummel the receiver of the sucker punch? Will the receiver of the sucker punch be able to step back, recover, counter the perpetrator, and finally make the decision to either engage and defeat the sucker puncher or retreat?

Two days ago I read an article in which my favorite baseball team, the Boston Red Sox, allowed Black Lives Matter to displayed in their iconic and historic scoreboard and additionally placed a full size billboard outside their stadium, the iconic Fenway Park, with Black Lives Matter prominently displayed. First off, the Henry’s have every right in the world to display whatever they want in their stadium as owners of the franchise. However, in my anger I was ready to completely disavow the Red Sox, Major League Baseball along with the NFL and the NBA because of their overt acquiescence and cowardice in the face of the bullying tactics of the Marxist organization known as Black Lives Matter. But, for now, I am going to give the owners and management of these leagues the benefit of the doubt because they, after all, are in business and the cultural narrative in our country has been hijacked and is being dominated by the Marxist interests. I am going to forgive the owners and managements ignorance of the fact that the Marxist’s will in the long run destroy the businesses that the owners are trying to preserve. I will forgive the fact and give them the benefit of the doubt that they are too busy running their business enterprises to realize the fundamental threat to their business models this existential Marxist threat poses to them. But I am here to say right now that they had better wake up and realize what this threat truly means to them and they better do it soon!

I will not apologize nor will I allow, to the best of my ability, the Marxists in waiting to twist words around to brand me a racist for saying all lives matter. I cannot believe that we in the United States are allowing this! How can one say that all lives is racist and do not matter!?! Saying only Black Lives Matter is wrong wrong wrong! Yes, black lives matter but they do not matter any more nor any less than yellow, brown, or white lives. I will say, again, that I would welcome many of the people that I served with in the military to live next door to me regardless of their race. In fact, I would prefer many of the nonwhite people I served with to be my neighbor as compared with white people that I served with. Conversely, there are probably an equal number of folks from all races that I would not want to be my neighbor.

It is time to quit ceding ground in the war “the narrative”. I am tired of the language being twisted and turned to make people not sure if what they are saying is right or wrong. If we allow our language to be twisted and manipulated, then we will lose. Once again, I say all lives matter and if you say only black lives matter than you are a racist! BLM will continue to mean the Bureau of Land Management to me.

As for MLB I was heartened to see that Commissioner Manfred in his open letter at the start of the season makes no mention of Black Lives Matter, however, I am disheartened to see players taking a knee for the national anthem and Black Lives Matter patches being made available to the players many of them who are millionaires who would lose it all if the Marxist Black Lives Matter or those of similar ilk were successful in deconstructing our nations systems as they have vowed to do. In the same vein I was encouraged and fully support MLB’s partnerships with the Jackie Robinson Foundation and Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund and the MLB Diverse Business Partners Recovery Project.

So, on balance, I would say the scales tip in MLB’s favor and it is keeping me for demanding a refund on my subscription to MLB TV which I had vowed to do the night I read about the Red Sox use of Black Lives Matter and, in my mind, take a knee to the Marxists. However, I will question my motives for the entire season. I will question if I am so desperate to watch something on television besides the news that I am caving into and supporting the Black Lives Movement by watching baseball and the Red Sox this shortened season? I will particularly be on guard and monitoring how the whole MLB Organization handles themselves. MLB and any other organization that has recently supported Black Lives Matter, is on probation so to speak in my mind. I will attribute their initial support to ignorance and quite honestly greed. I will not blame them for the abject failure of our so called conservative intellectuals and leaders and in their ceding the cultural wars to the left wing socialist Marxist progressive communist fascist scum in our country.

I will also be doing some soul searching for instances in which I have ceded my personal intellectual and economic high ground to the leftists. For instance, I know I have ceded this ground by my silence. There are many times when I could have said something in many conversations but did not want to deal with the ramifications of standing for what I believe. In other words, I did not want to deal with the ensuing yelling, screaming, pontificating, and bullying behavior that was sure to follow from these radical leftists. However, I must remember that silence is often construed as agreement and I so often forget this fact. From this day forward I will never again acknowledge Black Lives Matter as anything but a Marxist movement based upon overt racism.
