Chelsea Clinton Wasn't at Fault for Criticizing Rep Omar Because of an Australian Mass Killer

I find it hard to believe that the Australian killer Brenton Tarrant was a follower of anything Chelsea Clinton wrote or said. Today, political opponents will smear political targets through association with anything they can, even as vague derivative or parallel maladroit inferences. The criticism of Rep. Omar was self-standing, not to mention the post hoc ergo propter hoc logical fallacy nature of the blame Chelsea Clinton thing. Anti-Islamophobists have been militating against any criticism of Muslims since 9–11. Totalitarian thought and speech controllers might want to rule the world and censor everyone. 

Y genes are passed on just through males. Killers concerned about y gene cultural extinction as happened to dark haired blue-eyed Iberian farmers living there in 4500 b.c. when eastern Europeans moved in and had a lot more children while bumping out the locals probably aren’t concerned about the opinions of x gene progeny of the privileged in some distant place have to say. X genes have a guarantee of survival, y genes require cultural stability for cultural continuity.

The point about general criticism of Islam as somehow inappropriate is wrong considering history. The cult formed in the 7th century has been warlike and expansive in fact and doctrine. It is probably the most intolerant of major religions going on Middle eastern experience. In the Middle East mosques of different sects aren’t allowed to exist in nations with a Sunni or Shia majority. Logically if one is from a Christian majority nation that has overcome its own sectarian issue, letting many Muslims in would be a dangerous way to let a dangerous weed grow. It isn’t very complicated.

The United States formed with more tolerance than most, because their were few people, they were mostly of one Christian religion, and everyone was needed to overthrow the British aristocrats ruling the place. There were brilliant philosophically minded dissidents who wrote a great declaration and constitution that was antipathetic toward aristocracy. Simply because the founders had God’s grace to found the nation does not mean that it necessarily must stand with a flood of millions of immigrants and many illegally that don’t speak one language, have one faith, or even one allegiance. The United States may not only experience more terrorism from more Muslim extremists down the road, it may fade away without a core population with one sentiment and identity.

During the cold war the communist propaganda machine was largely external. Today the anti-American left have internal allies in the broadcast media, deficient theorists in the Democrat Party, and billions of people that would not mind just moving in to take over the United States through demographic supremacy. Being aware of history does not comprise racism. It is o.k. to learn from history and defend the territorial integrity and political identity of the United States.

Humanity tends to evolve technology as well as physiology. When humanity started eating less meat because it evolved agriculture, human teeth no longer needed to bite down on tough meat on edge to edge. Instead the softer diet allowed the upper teeth up front to moved toward an overbite. With that change the f and p words could be pronounced. Human vocabulary a recent article explained began a proliferation of those words just about 2,500 years ago. The United States may be humanity’s last best hope for making a sustainable new ecological economic structure. It already creates ideas for adaptive technology that could support a sustainable human place in a viable and healthy ecosphere. Flooding the nation with chaotic, under-educated immigrants or building religious conflict won’t necessarily be helpful. Though the Clinton administration led the way to moral corruption, Chelsea Clinton is faultless for making valid and appropriate political speech concerning job performance of Rep. Omar.

Fresnel Lens Toilets?

There are a few kinds of waterless toilets in use, including composting toilets, incinolet electric or propane toilets etc. I am not aware of a waterless toilet that uses direct, focused solar energy to burn waste?

For some areas with lots of sunshine focusing solar light on storage tanks to burn it to ash or evaporate it might work. Maybe their would be solar charged battery powered movement of the waste product to the burn tank.

If designers could use polarizing filters and mirrors to add one-way color to safety-glass enclosures the mess could be invisible for-others.

Factoid on China's Political Future

China isn’t going to collapse anytime soon. There are too many people living there to allow a collapse to occur. With more than a billion three-hundred million souls the political structure is a kind of fly-by-wire thing that if turned off would let the jet fly without control into the side of a hill or something. China will evolve governmental changes even with ad hoc structural changes rather than have a black out and fall.
There was a good book published a few years ago named Capital in the Twenty-First Century. The author, Thomas Pickety, examined some of the statistics concerning demographic growth and economic growth in trans-generational configurations historically. People should read it for data regarding classical economic growth (rather than sustainable ecological economics).

New Zealand Shooter and Internet Censorship

During the massacre of mosque-goers in Christchurch New Zealand one of the shooters made a live video with something like a GoPro camera and it was streamed online. It made its way to social media outlets such as Facebook and Youtube before a mob of media companies and news agencies castigated the social media platforms for carrying it. The video was deleted from the social media sites and is very difficult to find.

There are a million ways media and the corporate world track people and their personal business these days through technology, and the 1% own most of the media, so what is inconvenient for corporate goals tends to become marginalized if not censored outright. Deleting history is offensive to those interested in learning and observing for themselves what is what about social events, crimes, etc. Video crimes captured online cannot be allowed to become live entertainment, so it is reasonable to take down live feeds, yet the content should go up into social media after a suitable time has passed- perhaps 30 days, in order for the content to become part of the historical record the public has a right to know.

Social media sites themselves presently are being neutered by the left, and blamed for ads by foreigners that influence American voters, blamed for allowing 'right wing extremists' to post material, and sundry other special crimes or misdemeanors that invade the privacy of users. Governing powers have no concern about conserving the integrity and existence of material posted by writers and image creators to the corporate media that tends to be unreliable in the long run.

I understand that Muslim jihadists post video of people they execute; sometimes with heads being cut off. That material is offensive yet is also part of the historical record. The New Zealand mosque shooting should become archival material at least on Youtube within 30 days.

Corporate owned social media has taken down popular shows on social media such as Prison Planet by Alex Jones, who hasn't killed anyone, simply for offending the left. He was subject to a lawsuit by Sandy Hook people, yet a civil suit or even criminal charges should not be enough to prompt censorship and deletion by Corporate from social media. If one were convicted and in prison, then one could not be available for creating content.

Apparently offending the left is enough to make individuals lose social media rights in the way convicts lose their voting rights in several states. The United States cannot have a free society if people are not free to criticize the government and corporations including media corporations, and free to criticize the 1% for owning the media, and corporations for promoting wrong value theories such that develop Mussolini's philosophy of corporatism in the United States as an actual political fact. The spineless Democrat Party passed Bush II tax cuts permanently to reinforce the concept of the deep state of Republocratic government interested in making pets of the citizens. If they actually wanted to revolt the corporate social media would be sure to censor everything and call it hate speech. That would be especially true if people were to say they hate the government, they hate the media and they hate the 1%. One cannot express a revolutionary level of hate; even if it is deserved, without incurring the wrath of the social media queer minders and their media stooges.

Logicians may not actually experience an emotion rising to the level of hate when realizing the deep inefficiencies of the U.S. Government and the way the corporate system has evolved in the United States. It is needful to leave real content including the unpleasant and offensive, when it becomes part of public history, in the public realm where it to can be considered in understanding who and what actual people have done.

One wants to know if their political leaders and fellow citizens are as daft as they appear in such cases. One might want to know if people perpetrating various crimes for political reasons fit into their social environment in very unusual ways. What one doesn't want is propaganda alone, and the media point of view that is a device the very rich prefer the public to receive.

The left with their corporate leash holders have made hate a symbolic sign for everything antipathetic to their political agenda. It is another Orwellian step too far.

None Knew the One Before (poem)

What is beyond solid state mass
where everything quantified is a string or particle-wave theory
occupying every possible world-line path and location beyond
when quanta have no when and where of time

Time is embedded in solid state mass
matter in motion measured is time
captured as points of motion forward
mass evolves through thermodynamic complexity
into the solid state incapable
of running in reverse

What is the quantum world in-itself
coherence with one dimension strings 
everyplace potentially if quantum symmetry were broken
when everyplace becomes one place in time
a string caught in quarks and atoms

Decoherent quanta abandoned from timeless symmetry
from a theoretical energy field
where general and special relativity do not go
become matter in the Universe
energy fields and mass together
flowing in relativistic, thermodynamic courses
toward phase states and more dimensions
though none knew the one before.

Letting Foreign American States Join the Union

The United States of America is a description of several states that are politically united on a continent of America. Like N.A.T.O. that expanded a bit, the U.S.A. has gone a bit beyond its geographic locator; Hawaii isn’t in America. Turkey isn’t on the North Atlantic.

It is possible that one day additional states may join the union. Venezuela, Chile, Mexico and Peru are obvious candidates. Territories of the United States of America may petition congress to be admitted as states, yet presently sovereign, foreign states in the Americas probably would be allowed to join the union if they were to accept the constitution of the United States and petition the congress for admission.

The Union of American States and Islands has a certain panache about it that may be lacking in The United States of America. With sufficient skill, reasoning and oratorical ability a President might get the designator for the United States of America upgraded to something else.

Every President Should Have a Turn on Mt. Rushmore

Every President should be on Mt. Rushmore. A color holograph of each would be superimposed over the drab stone, in turn, morphing into the next in succession cyclically. The technology might be a decade ahead. Everyone likes a good light show. One day holographic fireworks may enable safer pyrotechnic displays.

Viewing President Trump Historically, From 2119

I am not sure that viewing the future from an imaginary point of view a century ahead is worth much except for presenting extrapolations of the effects of the present bad and good trends. People a century from now may be less human mentally and physically, while government may be more invasive and wire every soul to a central controller. In one-hundred years President Trump may be regarded as a sort of global warming Luddite who was reasonably effective on pre-reformed economics. Americans don't use Celsius much. Average global warming temperatures are predicted to rise 1.5 degrees C by the end of the century and that doesn't impress them. Scientists point out that the Arctic temperatures will rise by 5 C regardless of what steps are taken to stop human caused greenhouse gassing, and that might concern them a little more. The actual temperature rise in the Arctic is more like 10 degrees if one converts the Celsius rise into Fahrenheit degrees.
Ten degrees of increased warmth will not only make the icecap go away in the summer, it will make permafrost melt that holds as much Greenhouse gas (methane) as mankind releases into the atmosphere. If that happens temperatures will rise a lot more than 1.5 Celsius globally and far more in the Arctic. President Trump may be viewed as having been unable to appreciate the vast empirical threat and move toward directed evolution of free enterprise and capitalism policies toward ecospheric sustainability.
If mankind survives and overcomes ecosphere decline challenges, the decision to renew the manned space program may be to his credit as enterprising off-world ventures may grow in scale quite a lot.
If the national economy collapses because of its inability to pay off public debt and create a more egalitarian social ecosystem with liberty and justice for all citizens, President Trump could be viewed as one of the last of his kind in the lost society. A great symbol amidst a society in moral, financial and ecospheric decay.

Quantum computing scientists have investigated the arrow of time that is inherent in solid state mass (decohered from quantum uncertainty), and actually returned a quantum computer computer state its past state. If the realm of general relativity is with the solid-state, thermodynamic Universe with its arrow of time in one direction (to the future because of entropy and anisotropic complexity, I wonder what the absence of relativistic effect in the quantum realm are? Maybe the past of solid state mass will become as malleable as the present. That could include the present state of politics.

Scientists Were Able to Reverse Time, But There's A Catch

Arctic Temperature to Rise Nearly Ten Degrees F

Americans don't use Celsius much. So when average global warming temperatures are predicted to rise 1.5 degrees C by the end of the century that doesn't impress them much. Scientists point out that the Arctic temperatures will rise by 5 C regardless of what steps are taken to stop human caused greenhouse gassing, and that might concern them a little more. The actual temperature rise in the Arctic is more like 10 degrees if one converts the Celsius rise into Fahrenheit degrees.

On Merit Systems

Merit in a given organization structure means fulfilling best the organizational objectives. If one is a good soldier one has merit if one follows orders and kills enemies efficiently. If one is a good investment adviser one has merit for making much money. If one is a subordinate in any organization one has merit for accomplishing the objectives that help the organization best. Merit in-itself is nearly without value.
What is best for a society may have no organizational merit; that is the organization may have no recognition of what its actual needs are. Organizational values may be tautologous and self-reinforcing and discognizant of external challenges. Existing organizational structures promote merit for supporting the advance of existing values and goals. New ideas or refurbished old ideas, synthetic compositions and so forth may be given no merit. Merit for-itself hasn’t necessary empirical merit, and may be counter-productive. That is society may work against its best interests and have wrong values. That situation often exists because of historical inertia.
While the principle practice of if its not broke don’t fix it generally has merit, the principle is not invariably appropriate. An example would be the widespread continuing use of fossil fuels producing carbon dioxide contributions to atmospheric global warming. Reformation of free enterprise mechanics within a directed evolution course of government regulations need be innovated, yet the ability for organizations to create or change to new practices that involve destruction of existing, functioning practices runs counter, on the face of it, to the if its not broke don’t fix it principle.
A communist society is the most repressive of free enterprise that exists for individuals, as well as personal liberty, for it is implicitly repressive. A problem of an over-populated world with fundamental economic systems and physical infrastructures grown from thousands of years old structures is that the ability to change is repressed. The good values of selecting meritorious concepts and practices become ossified; the system can’t overcome itself.
The historian Arnold Toynbee noted that civilizations tend to become ossified and fail to meet certain challenges. Then the civilizations fall. He also noted that today there is just one civilization, and it to may fail, and fall. The capacity to change from itself enough to have a sustainability in economic and ecosphere presently, apparently lacking in the long run, may not exist. The changes would be greater than anything imagined by most economists and politicians. Free thought and free people are necessary for that. Unfortunately like the apocryphal story of why crabs can’t escape from a crab pot (because the other crabs pull them back down), communism and even corporate and ad hoc plutocratic organizations consolidate power empirically and repress the masses setting their own values for merit that the proles for upward mobility need follow.
Merit systems of stimulus-response, better biscuit for the good dog, if they exist, need be just. Cheating so bad dogs get good-dog treats corrupts a merit system.
People often don’t have occasion to philosophically consider things like merit systems. In a competitive social structure simply striving to merit something, some goal; like college admission or promotions to junior supervisor helper or top factory dog- even chief big dog, rules need to be fair. It is also important to consider the rules and philosophy and existential criterion where rules exist. If a thousand people are crowded into a sports stadium toilet facility meant for one-hundred, there are other issues besides those of does it stink or how the throughput could be increased.
