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 front lines of a purple state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in a sort of stream of conscious journal format.
Does anyone else ever get the feeling of a disconnect between reality and what is being fed to us through the media, thanks to the spread of the internet and all the content that it delivers? This just being an extension of the corrupting influences brought about by the radio first and then television. We as human beings spend more time in front of our devices than we do cultivating one on one relationships with other human beings. The noise and constant bombardment of our senses with images and sounds from televisions, radios, and computers filling our minds up and distracting us from the real world. The sounds and sights of the devices designed to distract us from the uncomfortable reality of human existence in what is, at times, an unforgiving and bleak existence. These devices have become like a form Huxley’s Soma for the masses.
What disturbs me or rather what I finally was able to see this past week is that the media and big tech masters are creating new worlds in their digital realms that people are dependent upon for nearly all their survival. They shop online, find entertainment online, communicate with others online using email and video conferencing and a whole host of other activities. All activities that fill our minds but do nothing for our bodies. It almost seems as if it is an entrapment of our minds to ensure that our bodies follow suit. It is a way to imprison our bodies without having to build a prison.
Ex British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, has testified before that county’s COVID commission. This after at least a week or more coverage of this Commission and all I could, yet again hear, was blah blah blah.
The current British Deputy Prime Minister, Oliver Dowden, discussing Russian hacking group ahead of the elections. What I find interesting is that he also lumped in five eye countries. Russia’s FSB Centre 18 also going by the names Star Blizzard and Frontier. A British official said, “We are coming towards an election year. We want to get this hack and leak threat more into the bloodstream – so people are more aware.” This and the mystery pneumonia attacking children and old people has spread from China to the U.S. Does anyone else see a narrative table of sorts being set for next year? It almost seems similar to 2019.
As if on cue and to add another piece of flatware to this so called narrative table being set for next year’s elections the religious war could be heating up with the Presidents of Harvard, MIT and Penn all under fire for not condemning genocide. I agree genocide should never be tolerated and I am pleased to see an uproar. My only question now is why are people just now seeing these people for the spineless morally corrupt vipers that they are? How many others in academia have no moral standing but are merely leftist puppets? Too many to fathom I would imagine at this point.
Speaker Johnson has within twenty four hours caved and added the FISA Section 702 back into the NDAA. Now I have to wonder if it was all just theater in the first place as his first refusal put him front and center on media as standing up to the deep state. Now that he has caved news of the cave are not front and center in the media. Oh, and this “cave in” comes after dealing with the notably anti human Chuck Schumer and the military is still going to fund abortion, transgender operations and more funding to Ukraine? This the same day that Secretary Austin, who has no credibility with me after his going along with allowing US Service members to be subjects in Big Pharma’s mRNA experiment, is threatening that troops will need to be sent to the Ukraine while our Southern Border is open? I hope this bill does not pass any floor votes because it should not. Time to pull out each individual item for a floor vote. So, what if it takes more time because we need to know where these supposed Senators and Representatives truly stand and they may have to do some work instead of working the D.C. cocktail fundraising circuits. It is disgusting to see the arrogance of these people.
I see that Italy has withdrawn from China’s Belt and Road and I think this is good news. Now I wonder what or if Italy will do anything about keeping its churches and cathedrals from being turned into mosques?
A shooting in Las Vegas in a gun free zone, with a pistol and the Dems, as if on cue, immediately call for an assault weapons ban. I commend the UNLV Police who responded immediately to put the shooter down, however.
Taylor Swift is Time Magazine’s Person of the Year. She is dating Travis Kelce, Big Pharma’s poster boy. The image manufacturing business is running full time propping these two up with backing from Big Pharma no doubt. All I do is yawn yet again because I really could give a rip about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
God bless America and 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.
