N.S.A. attitudes may be the consequence of spoiled

 Is the N.S.A. a lot of spoiled sacs of manure with attitudes that trim their fellow Americans? Is it a collection of brighter than average individuals that trample on average people with the glee of empowered juveniles? Should they be placed under the supervision of the F.B,.I."

When the N.S.A. corrupts the fabric of democracy rigging search engines, violating privacy and civil rights of Americans rather than just foreigners it is an agency that's gone to far with a vast budget to wreak their ideas of class supremacy on the nation.

It may be, of course, that they aren't such a bad lot of people that run no risks except getting fat paychecks and don't experience the grime of military service. Perhaps they should be required to learn humility by an annual session low crawling through a pig farm yard.

Sustainable Development Goals of U.N. conflate social and physical items as political goals

 In my opinion conflating a social agenda with physical material boundaries is a disaster. The nine ecospheric boundaries should be separate and distinct from the social eight development goals. The mixed bag of goals and boundaries has a poisoned political pill for everyone. I suppose godless atheists might all be happy with abortion for the world’s poor women, and population growth does decline as women have fewer children when they are prosperous statistically, yet those are contentious political issues that won’t be treated well if elite bureaucrats sit around a donut-shaped table generating a lot of verbiage. God may have generated a Multiverse and predestined a Universe- who knows? Darwinist-only votaries tend to be ignorant about theology and metaphysics or hermeneutics generally and associate faith with beliefs common in the 19th century concerning creation- and that is very obsolete.

I couldn’t believe the piece on resilience; do people really need to know what Cicero thought about it or what old french or English variations were? It might be that the excess verbiage on resilience and systems analysis could be abbreviated by fitting them within parameters of Newton’s three laws of motion. Then one can flowchart all sort of squiggly pointillist art with data bits that show the way things flow and how the patterns go. Some whirlpools in creeks return to form even if a boat engine disrupts them passing through. Entropy does count.

Long ago I drew up a flowchart for the logical progression to one world government. It's a jejune idea that youth have withoiut realizing the problems with that (it's best suited for dictatorships). The U.N. conflation of 17 sustainable development goals that seems itself like an oxymoron since development makes most people think of the current high-entropy economic system seems jejune though the topics are serious for all 17. It's just a poorly constructed item.

Free citizens tired of the communist threat; not because of inequality but more so because bureaucratic elites of the communist party dictated what people could or couldn’t do and the dictatorship of the communist party was kind of a drag. It oppressed religious ideas (“churches don’t work anymore”) and so forth. Conflating the eight social points with none physical boundaries debases the critical importance of the planetary boundaries so seriously that they won’t get done. The nine boundaries aren’t serious enough to merit separate and distinct objective evaluation so nations and voters can decide what they want to do about them for themselves?

Piketty’s ideas for remedies to the inequality of wealth are good enough yet simple. Increase progressive taxation and put a tax on capital. Concentrated wealth and power prefer to own the media and internet and repress ideas that might affect their power and wealth adversely and that is becoming worse all the time.

James Lovelock wrote in The Final Warning that humanity only has about 200 years remaining before the big crash environmentally reaches a very high level and world population crashes to 200 million. Jacques Cousteau estimated a similar paradigm. In the 1970s and 80s it was written that global sustainable human population is only about 2 billion. Certainly if the technology for agriculture and living and zoning laws are as bad as political choices in democracies and real practical applications of the techne toolkit the pessimists probably are correct.

The electorate general has no idea of what the nine planetary boundaries are, so coupling them with a left leaning, atheist social agenda will just create such social divisions that few countries will be able to agree even though the EU might like to export its social agenda globally. Democracy can allow progressive tax rates without requiring a socialistic economic. Basically though if people are too dumb to be interested in saving themselves from ecospheric disaster caused by their economic toolkit survivors living off-world for a time may need to let the world fix itself up to use it again someday. Maybe a remnant will survive.

I believe the social items of value to some can be accomplished with an enlightened international on-line population of people willing and able to help. The closure of publishing freedom because of political and economic repression is a great way to let just sycophants express themselves freely.

The idea of sustainable development goals seems an oxymoron in a world with finite resources that preclude development of classical economic methods. The U.N. conflation of a social agenda and planetary boundaries seems to necessarily force political conflict because of the social agenda. Getting everyone to agree on saving the ecosphere from reaching a point where human life isn't very sustainable on Earth is necessary. The social agenda is a million faceted and debatable cluster that could be solved innumerable ways. Corporatocracy seems a threat to democracy and free society while the sanguine futurism requires a hushed up and subjugated population.

I appreciate the effort yet a more circumspective philosophical examination would be an improvement over pure institutional donut-dipping verbiage. Realpolitk includes an awareness of human nature and short-sightedness in pursuit of economic advantage.

Create consumer product list for biodiveristy safe items

  Consumers generally haven’t any idea about which products are safely made and harmless for global genetic biodiversity. It would be helpful to have an easily accessible on-line data base of products that aren’t harmfully contributing to mass extinction.

In my opinion not a single consumer out of a thousand, and maybe one in ten thousand actually checks out product status in regard to being harmless or harmful concerning mass extinction before they buy it. When consumers visit stores they look for good buys, items on sale and things they can afford. Virtually none even know how to find out if a bar of soap, a can of soup or toilet paper contributes to loss of land resources in regard to biodiversity, habit etc, or if the transportation used is polluting the sky or killing fish. It is simply too technical for non-scientists and the opportunity cost of making internet searches for each product is way too harmful in regard to time lost for the inquirer on-line.

Someone really ought to coordinate a unified product list of numbers to verify the genetic biodiversity status of each and sort them by categories and rank for easy on-line review.

President Trump (and Biden) shouldn't seek re-election in 2024

 With luck Donald Trump will decide not to enter the 2024 Presidential race and forego developing the nation into a banana republic. He could of course choose to wear a uniform coat with epaulets and ribbons while extolling the greatness he confers upon  the public with so little reward yet the attraction of letting a more representative candidate- a guy with degrees from Harvard, Yale and a grad of navy seal school get put down with his withering wit may be irresistible. The nation could you a gerontocratic battle; mano y mano, of two old guys with remarkable few  remaining skills in comparison to those they had a few decades ago.

  Governor DeSantis is one quality candidate and the nation needs one or more of those. Joe Biden and Donald Trump should enjoy the wealth and satiation of their elder years and allow the nation to find actual quality leadership. The Roman Republic and Empire suffered quite a bit when they had a string of bad leaders. The fate of their nation like the well being, security and solvency of a nation suffers with bad leadership.

I appreciate the fact that President Trump was the sole realistic alternative to Hillary Clinton and maybe half of the nation is grateful that he kept the Clintons from seizing the day, and of course the Demo Party has punished him so far as possible ever since. If he chooses to run again and loses, or brought his unusual attitude to office he can only do the public harm (unless the sole alternative was four more years of Joe Biden). Americans don’t like to elect family dynasties much and plutocrats are not very liked either. The nation did revolt against the upper class to start with and don’t need another one established to wrench progress with an over-concentration of wealth.

Intelligent, sober old people are a blessing to the nation; intemperate individuals less so in public office. One may have strong opinions yet egoism and assertiveness go a long way to give the appearance of a lack of intellect and knowledge. President Biden and Trump each seem terribly afflicted with personal egoism. Trump’s is over and Biden’s is covert. The federal government needs better leaders. Even an older Ralph Nadir would be a better choice.

Nets Should Trade Irving to Lakers for Pennance

  Brooklyn should trade Kyrie Irving for Russel Westbrook strait across and move on to the satisfaction of both teams. Westbrook hasn't played well for the Lakers for some reason and Irving has trouble with false consciousness concerning Jews and history. THe trade would benefit the league.

Corporatocracy silences people saying things that they believe won't help sales including entertainment league people like basketball players. Yet people shouldn't be forced to say things they don't believe in order to work a job- even if what they do believe is wrong.

Irving should be happy to return to L.A. and his former teamate Lebron James. Playing basketball instead of making bad history analysis and commentary on films that were as inflamatory to Jews as the Satanic Verses were to Muslims would be a better investment of time. Russell Westbrook at least doesn't believe Sasquasch and Donald Trump are conspiring with Russians to start an intifadah until Elvis is released from captivity.

It's all up to Herschel Walker

 It looks like Republicans will win the House, and there are just three Senate races remaining undecided that will determine if Republicans can take the Senate too. Adam Laxalt will add Nevada to the Republican column i.m.o., and Mark Kelly will take Arizona for the Demos and that leaves the fate of the Senate up to Herschel Walker vs a Rev. Warnock in what should be a runoff election.

Republicans have 49 seates and they need 51 to take control. I believ Mr. Walker should bust through the remaining Democrat line in the reunoff as he did against opposition on the field. Rev Warnock probably supports Ukraine military arms shipments, abortion and homosexual marriage- another neo-Christian who disregards Biblical paradigmata for election and personal career advance purposes.

Can one be a Democrat politician without being a hawk on N.A.T.O. expansion, war in Ukraine, sanctions on Russia, abortion and homosexual marriage? 

Bad Search Engine LIstings Imperil Democracy!

 This is a day Democrats have warned about; evidence that Democracy is in peril by Republicans. Therefore my crummy search engine listings must be responsible for the danger to democracy too, and maybe other unknown factors are also imperiling democracy, like the green party that died after Ralph Nadir took votes from Al Gore. If the Green Party rose from the ashes democracy would be even more endangered than now, or at least the Democrat Party would be.

Ideas of Universes (recapitulation)

 Are you familiar with the concept of a Multiverse? A Universe may be just one region of it, and I would think that various kinds of fields may exist that are larger than a single Universe. If a Universe is initially just a singularity it is contained within some volume. Parmenides and Heraclitus might have liked that kind of inquiry. There are different and scalar kinds of singularities just as some infinities are greater than others (re; Greg Cantor and trans-finite numbers).

If a Universe expands from a singularity that had all of the energy that would eventually become mass it is probable that some universes expanded from different sizes of singularity. Some black holes are larger than others.

You may be aware that mass and 'objects' are nothing more than apparent phenomena occurring in the Higgs field. Two-dimensional particles slow down in the field and pick up an appearance of a third dimension in the direction of travel. Massless two-dimensional particles seem to be close to the basic state of everything.

I would not guess the true state of Universes is simply singularity or mustard seeds that expand for a while into universes before spending all of their energy in thermodynamic processes. There may be more than that, yet I believe a singularity is a real object that is one and comprises an entire universe-in-itself. Some people prefer to call a Multiverse a 'universe' and that is reasonable I suppose. That reinforces the idea that none know what a Universe is well enough to set comprehensive boundaries.

Quine defined the concept of linguistic ‘universes’ rather well in Ontological Relativity. Each language lexicon is like a defined set of numbers that can’t be converted directly into a different set without corrupting the elements. The meaning of Universe exists in different lexicon/word sets and is part of the challenge of postulating metaphysics for cosmology, universes, Multiverse etc.

Information is conserved- Shannon Entropy, and isn't destroyed. Apparently no information is lost; not even if the Universe 'ends'. Matter and energy are convertible and were thought to be neither created or destroyed as well. That raises the point that if information is created yet not destroyed permanently (not even in black holes); was information never created (except by God) as well? Did the information of the Universe pre-exist the existence of the Universe? If determinism with free will is the fact the author of a deterministic Metaverse might not be required by anything he writes into being to rewrite it or ever be subject to the laws of a contingent universe. I believe it useful when considering metaphysics of universes to consider what God could do with universes to infer characteristics of singularity and universes for-themselves.

Faith Inferred from Knowledge

Metaphysics and faith are useful in many fields. That is one might want to infer from what is known or use inductive reasoning to fill in gaps of the unknown. That's useful in sailing, inventing things etc. Sometimes what isn't known is necessary knowledge to have and one must outline a mind map creatively to discover that bite of land to put a boat in before dark. If one relied entirely on what is well-known and didn't sometimes draw some sketchy inferences from it so much creative thought that turns out to be right would be lost. Faith that one's judgment or dead reckoning is correct is necessary if one needs to act on one's belief. Sometimes life presents forced options (as William James described) so one must make a choice. Even the Bible (Romans 10:17) has faith based on knowledge. "17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."

Metaphysics is the leading edge of physics and especially cosmology. I doubt if Hugh Everett’s many worlds conjecture developed as an alternative to the Copenhagen interpretation would have been created without his meta-physics thought about gambling (greater than physics) and game theory. Recombining diverse and theoretical concepts in thought experiments is a way that new and true ideas about physical cosmology can be found.

Modal logic universes can be theoretical universes or metaphysics used to test the logical validity of relations within a set. Those relations could be physical laws of a universe or even theological concerns such as determinism that in turn can be exchanged with select concepts from entropy and information theory. One populates a universe with a criterion of members or elements and then may verify the logic of their functions. Some universes may be non-functional yet others may be valid though not exclusively valid. In my opinion that field is metaphysics though technically it is modern logic and math, physics or whatever goes into it.

Multiverse vs Universe Desiderata

 Are you familiar with the concept of a Multiverse? A Universe may be just one region of it, and I would think that various kinds of fields may exist that are much larger than a single Universe. If a Universe is initially just a singularity it is contained within some volume. Parmenides and Heraclitus might have liked that kind of inquiry. There are different and scalar kinds of singularities just as some infinities  are greater than others (re; Greg Cantor and trans-finite numbers). If a Universe expands from a singularity that had all of the energy that would eventually become mass it is likely that some universes expand from different sizes of singularity scaled like some black holes are larger than others. You might be aware that mass and 'objects' are nothing more than apparent phenomena occurring in the Higgs field. Two-dimensional particles slow down in the field and pick up an apparence of a third dimension in the direction they travel. I would not stipulate that the true state of Universes are simply singularities or mustard seeds that expand for a while into universes before spending all their energy in thermodynamic processes. There may be more than that, yet I believe a singularity is a real object that is one and comprises an entire universe-in-itself. Some poeple prefer to call a multiverse a 'universe' and that is reasonable I suppose. That just goes to show that none know what a Universe is well enough to set comprehensive boundaries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kixAljyfdqU

Regarding Omnipotence

 Throwing the first stone...Could God create a rock bigger than a Universe and lift it in zero gravity or would the special theory make the problem superfluous? If God lifted a Universe that is made entirely of one rock would the motion of the rock not be relative to the omnipresence of God; that is, would God need to move or lift anything at all for the rock to be one and all, and all in one? If God entangled all of the two-dimensional particles not entangled in the Higgs Field and converted those and all of the particles in the Higgs field that seem to be three dimensional into some sort of schist or a crystal rock- maybe a diamond, would it exist meta-universally within the field that contains all possible universes and would it be possible for anyone besides God to move it anyplace, though movement of the largest possible rock that is a Universe for-itself might be possible and impossible simulatenously?

 Information is conserved- Shannon Entropy, and isn't destroyed. Apparently no information is lost; not even if the Universe 'ends'. Matter and energy are convertible and were thought to be neither created or destroyed as well. That raises the point that if information is created yet not destroyed permanently (not even in black holes); was information never created (except by God) as well? Did the information of the Universe pre-exist the existence of the Universe? If determinsm with free will is the fact, is the author of a deterministic Metaverse required by anything he writes into being to rewrite it (such as lifting a gallstone that comprises everything that exists in the Universe because he doesn't find it very interesting?

The rock of infinite mass would compact to a black hole and be a singularity since it was everything of a Universe (super massive). Would expanding the singularity faster than light for a fraction of a second count as lifting it?

Conservation of Information

 Information is conserved- Shannon Entropy, and isn't destroyed. Apparently no information is lost; not even if the Universe 'ends'. Matter and energy are convertable and was thought to be neither created or destroyed as well. That raises the interesting point that information is created yet not destroyed permanently (not even in black holes); was information never created (except by God) as well? Did the information of the Universe pre-exist the existence of the Universe?

U.N. Sustainable Development Goals- a comment

 I.M.O. the SDGs are a nice effort that are somewhat unrealistic in that they fail to take account of human nature and the will for power. Original sin may be the thermodynamic criteria that humans are embedded in seeking to consume energy and process it. Politicians seek power, as do consumers mostly allegiant to consumption economic voting at the polls. Free societies tend not to be too interested in altruistic voting over those of personal interest selections. In the U.S.A. for example moral issues and surpassingly race issues prevail as poltical topics over common sense about eliminating poverty.

People that construct global political paradigms concerning the ecosphere's decline tend to work within existing market economies and are subject to it, and I do not believe that market economics and capitalism has ecological interests as a primary concern; that is it will be late at reacting to external environmental stimuli and human crisis via market forces and values. On the other hand, authorianism is the temptation to the wealthy and influential in some ad hoc sort of way. Making environmental economic settings by decree would be the ad hoc tendency and that undermines the strength of non-plutocratic free enterprise to innovate solutions to ecosphere challenges.

President Obama cut taxes on the rich. He made the Bush II tax cuts permanent when all he had to do was nothing and the tax breaks would have expired. Americans are against new taxes because they somewhat rightly don't trust politicans to spend revenues on more than pork. Public debt is more than 30 trillion dollars in the U.S. with a floating currency and technical tax managment to benefit the ecosphere substantially seems not in the cards.

I am not too optomistic about the prospects for environmental economic policies being implmented globally. Just making intelligent green zoning laws and changing bad technology for good tech is nearly impossible. I am glad that some people are trying, yet even the improvments SDG goals can help make seem inadequate and a bit off target insofar as serving as sustainable economic ways of living for billions.

Trying to force moral paradigms of the decadent first world moral systems on 2nd and third world people- especially atheism, is divisive rather than constructive and does great harm to the focus on transforming the world economy to ecological sustainable, realistic methods. Some suspect the U.N. led by Europe and the U.S. are just using globalization to force homosexual marriage and abortion on the rest of the planet while driving them into total control by plutocrats owning most of the world's wealth.

I would think the United States is strong at developing new technology and slack at innovating zoning laws to conserve the ecosphere and biodiversity. People everyplace tramp on the environment- even ordinary people with a surfeit of off-road vehicles, small boats, fish finders etc. Illegal migrants will scour the land for things to sell including plants and rocks. That is survival economics; and economics of necessity. Necessity driving people to interact negatively with the environment isn't likely to end anytime soon.

Being-for-Others (a poem)

Sallow dead fields of October
past medias weft winds slur
benzedrine beans make work purr
bullets and blades then occur
slaughters of death reassure
demon spawn of ancient Ur
-lost majority of Mars
in stars fast falling to Earth.

Logic supports belief in the Lord Jesus rather than not

 It is fashionable in metal music these days to promote disbelief in Jesus Christ. Yet Jesus Christ was historically real. It is one thing to disbelieve that Jesus was the Son of God and another to not believe he lived in the first decades of the first millennium.

Jesus Christ is one of the most historically known people that ever lived. It is possible these days to deny that Elvis ever lived or that Elvis was real because computer simulation spoofing could readily make fake Elvis video and music. Then one can discount eyewitness testimony (as Mathew, Mark, John and others provided and categorize the Lord right up there with fake Apollo moon landings. Yet Jesus was real and his disciple and followers liked him enough to keep detailed written records of his life and works.

Jesus Christ is one of the greatest geniuses that ever lived. I don’t believe that many unbelievers realize the genius of His sayings that a philosopher could categorize as ethics. The Lord was so far ahead of his time that even today none have created a comparable ethical system that is practical. Marcus Aurelius’s stoic Meditations are good to read yet falls far short of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

It is interesting that Jesus is painted with unbelief in music by so many professing atheism who might accept the existence of Sakyamuni (Buddha), of Mohammad, of Zoroaster and even Mani of Manichean fame from the Parthian Empire.

The genius of Jesus Christ extended far beyond ethics obviously. Simply on a secular basis his predictions of the future apocalypse of Israel that occurred after his death (and resurrection) in the first century anno domini is the largest easily recognizable body of prophecy that is 100% accurate ever made.

There were of course prophecies fulfilled by Jesus made by others that occurred before His birth. Those aren’t the prophecies in the book of Matthew that I am referring too.

https://www.biblestudytools.com/bible-study/topical-studies/how-does-matthew-prove-that-jesus-is-the-messiah.html

I am referring to prophecies made by Jesus Christ himself about the fate of Jerusalem in its end time in the first century with fundamental eschatological paradigmata in Matthew 24:3-28.

“3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for [a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, [b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.

15 “Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand), 16 “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house. 18 And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes. 19 But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! 20 And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the [c]elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. 24 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand.

26 “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. 27 For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 28 For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.”

In Matthew 29 Jesus refers to His second coming. The topic is complex and has been misunderstood by many. The Reverend Kenneth Gentry has a good brief article on the topic.

Create a Civilian Medal for Covid 19 Front line Service Workers

 While in office President Biden should consider issuing a Medal for Front Line Workers during the pandemic. Recognition for those that performed important civil tasks while Covid 19 was ubiquitous is worth making. Like the Army Service ribbon and the Sect Def’s civilian Medal for Valor a Covid 19 civilian front line worker campaign medal could remind the public of those that worked on the line during the pandemic.

Like Ye, Demos May be Deplatformed

  Deplatforming political and social opponents is a ubiquitous power bling in the U.S.A. these days. Ye (the artist formerly known as Kanye West) recently was deplatformed by the corporate world including the German company Adidas because of his free expression of ideas that corporate said were anti-Semitic. Ye didn’t back down or apologize for making so many statements about Jews.

https://www.adl.org/resources/blog/unpacking-kanye-wests-antisemitic-remarks

Because the internet of things is a collection of privately owned (mostly) servers that plug in and corporations that own social media sites generally free expression is limited to statements that don’t offend the profit and power agenda of the corporate world. If an individual’s statements or posts are antipathetic to the corporate guideline the offender is then ‘deplatformed” after a few warnings to kow tow in some cases.

Congressional deplatforming occurs through elections mostly, unlike corporate deplatforming that is in no way democratic. Because Congresspersons curry favor with the rich and corporations for their own benefit the Congress hasn’t developed platforms that citizens can post their ideas on without fear of being deplatformed for failing to be a sycophant of those with deep pockets. That is one of the reasons why the nation’s political system is becoming a democracy-republic more symbolically than factually as it morphs into corporatocracy and plutocratic hybridization.

Ye’s ideas about Jews aren’t like those of Hitler’s in Mein Kampf. They are instead expressions from the school of wrong ideas that arose culturally among poor American blacks I suppose. Ye said that blacks are the real Jews and the true descendants of the twelve tribes of Israel. I believe Elisha Mohammad expressed comparably wrong ideas about the origin of the white ‘race’ through selective breeding long ago. The expression of wrong or inaccurate ideas shouldn’t result in deplatforming. For one thing corporate censors sometime aren’t too bright and would know a linguistic plosive from a labial consonant, vellar fricative or explosive like C4. Because power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely the social media reflects corporate values for concentrating wealth preponderantly rather than being a marketplace of ideas for a democratic society that is interested in progress, efficiency, and infrastructural change to adapt intelligent technique to challenges.

If wrong ideas are sufficient to have one’s writing ‘deplatformed’ those ideas must also be politically popular to be repressed already. Because corporate yet has a lot of people producing greenhouse gas global warming deniers aren’t being deplatformed though their ideas are wrong. If wrong ideas alone were the test for deplatforming the Congress itself would risk deplatforming. Adolph Hitler would have deplatformed Ye for being black and being a Jew (or claiming to be). If Ye was alive in the 1940s he could have gone to Auschwitz unless he denied being a Jew. Ironically the German corporation that deplatformed Ye has more in common with Hitler than the founders of the United States that respected free speech and felt it was a necessity for democracy.

Speaker Pelosi’s husband was a victim recently of a deplatforming attempt by someone with antipathetic political ideas presumably. If another Mission Impossible is made it could have the topic of deplatforming as a plot at the highest level and that might seem a conspiracy too far. Deplatforming is the corporate delete key that the mafia might wish to have. "Alright Bugsy; you gonna go out and deplatform that guy; see?"

Alaska's U.S. Rep Supports Global Warming, Abortion and Homo Marriage

 Alaska's temporary U.S. Representative is a Democrat who must support homosexual marriage and abortion or she would be deplatformed. Evidently she is also in favor of global warming because she supported fossil fuel development on the North Slope National Petroleum Reserve (23 million acres). She is an Alaska native and female though, so morality and political points are comparatively inconsequential. In the U.S.A. today race is what matters for corporate sensibilities if it helps deplatform conservative Americans.

https://sdgs.un.org/goals UN Sustainable Development Goals

Alaskans certainly need good jobs. Accelerating global warming with high Arctive drilling producing exhaust at high latitude and supplying the nation with fossil fuel for decades ahead seems wrong. The state may lose a lot of waterline real estate as sea level rises from global warming later this century. The effects of global warming are visible every day increasingly.

The state should find a poliotician with real ideas to create 1000 new good paying jobs for the slope and interior that isn't harmful to the environment. It is possible.

Politicians are a specieis that prefer immediate rewards rather than disciplined and well informed reasonable planning unfortunately. That means the worst of things are embedded in the future like snow built up and disregarded above roads that is likely to slide.

Rep. Peltola probably will be re-elected because two Republican candidates will split the vote. A lack of intellegence can determine who wins elections.

Shadow of Mordor Grows over the Lakers' Season

Kobe Bryant was a first round pick. The Lakers will get one in 2023 yet the Pelicans can swap if they want due to the Davis trade. The Lakers have another in the 2^nd round and if they finish last that will be a good one. Should the Lakers learn to accept that good picks in the draft are the simplest way to get great players and that losing helps get good draft posits?

https://news.yahoo.com/column-0-82-winless-lakers-224416972.html

The Lakers have traded away much of their future picks and good young players to get just three players (Aging Lebron James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook) and that advantage has reached a logical end of quality place. James hasn’t reached his expiration date yet, Davis is oft injured and Westbrook like the rest of the Lakers can’t shoot 3’s well at all yet the situation is not hopeless. Westbrook is gone next year and the Lakers will save 47 million dollars a season starting in 2023 and be able to afford to keep young players and good shooters around.

James off the bench could probably contribute substantially for another 5 years yet Davis looks like good trade material looking toward next year when the Lakers can rebuild from a strong losing season. One hope James simply enjoys the game this year and isn’t troubled with concerns the Lakers trade away all their future draft picks the next five years so they can finish a game out of the playoffs instead of next to last. Really the Lakers should hope the Pelicans lose a lot and finish worse than they do in regard to the number one and two picks in the draft.

Trading away Alex Caruso and Malik Monk was devastating for the Lakers defense and offensive capabilities. Players of their caliber should be available in the 2^nd and third round next year. The Lakers need a good shooting regular forward if they can find one and a shooting guard. Maybe Drew Timme will be available if the Pelicans finish second from the bottom. They had a strong losing season last years so there is hope for the Lakers.

Bryce Hamilton was the 4^th highest scorer in college basketball. A tall shooting guard (6’ 4”) he already players for the Lakers’ South Bay G team. Maybe he is a bright spot already in the shadow of the Lakers A-team.

Democrats New Normal; Rule the World

 The Democrat Party gives the appearance of desiring to rule the world, marginalizing antipathetic political people on the way, and that is hardly a characteristic of democracy. A democratic society values a marketplace of ideas with the best allowed to reach the public rather than being censored, buried in search engine listing and so forth. The Democrat Party is a militant party universally that works to eliminate all opposition to their extremist agenda.

That is the new normal in the U.S.A.

The Democrat party has taken to using as much force as they can to move their political agenda forward for more than a decade. They are not in any way moderate. The partisan Democrat supporting broadcast media has said that it is the extreme right that disagrees with homosexual marriage, abortion, vast public debts, open borders and so forth and in that regard they are dead wrong.

Democrats are agianst traditional morality American style with the upgrade of being color-free and have no idea of what classical virtue is. The Democrat agenda clashes with a lot of global political sentiment, yet of course everyone except aristocrats, dictators, monarchists and plutocrats wants everyone to be free. There is not a necessary clash with Democracy to be Christian or against homosexual marriage, abortion and public debt.

Democrats have put forward an extremist divisiveness in their political intolerance for antipathetic political opinion. They have featured racism and race issues instead of economic issues consistently with the exception of supporting the middle class and losing the word 'poverty' entirely. Poverty is a convenient sink Democrats can force those of the working class into if they don't support a queer friendly workplace, abortion, loose morals etc.

Speaker Pelosi's husband became a victim of criminal violence recently. Though Democrats have supported hostile relations with Russia for decades and had no idea of how to or intention to avoid supporting the Ukraine war they profess anti-violence domestically and that at least is reasonable. Politicians might expect to be victims of criminal attacks since they are such magnets for all the public good and bad. Political violence is however quite against free expression for a democracy as it is a kind of extreme censorship at least as bad as that which occurs at most social media web sites. It is interesting that the left social media passive finesse censors work against free expression and the marketplace of ideas as much as that of rulers like Catherine the Great. Adolf Hitlers didn't really need censors; the Gestapo could simply kill people that wrote something the leader didn't like.
