Full Moon July 21/22

Wide awake under the Full Moon. Biden is no longer in the race; he can go full Dark Brandon. Trump isn't happy. J D Vance by any of his names isn't from Appalachia; neither was his mother; his grandparents left there when they were young for a middle-class union job and 4 bedroom house in a nice neighborhood in Ohio well away from hillbilly

Those book reports

[fairlyobscure]

Funny, my book reports on four Tolkien books never mentioned a problem with Tolkien, his politics, or his religion.

Ghostwriters on the net!

Wanna trash Dylan next?

No problems with Tolkien, but Vance is an orc in the service of the Dark Lord. The US has no Left, which is one of its problems. Bernie Sanders and AOC are advocates of most of what Eisenhower's Republican platform called for. Biden is a conservative who has been gradually nudged centrist. Harris is a centrist. Trump and Vance (by any of his various names) are fascists.

Revisionist foolishness

Children are being sterilized

There was a time when Americans agreed that was wrong.

Yes, there is a left. There are eugenic activities, including preemptive genocide, in the disproportionate demographics of the babies lost

Changing the meaning of words is like rebuilding the tower of Babel. It keeps people from communicating and understanding one another.

Children can not be taught that the world is doomed, it messes with their happiness and will to live.

Children should have the same pleasure in reading that previous generations did, but are being denied literacy. Children need math skills, so they won't fall for false stats and can grow to recognize untruths and incompetence in reporting (sometimes due to ignorance of the journalists, rather than malice).

The actual elections give us better real time breakdown of the numbers

There's little truth in what you write.

Sounds like Saul Alinsky advice.

Hope you find someone to vote for joyfully.

Because joy is the point.

neither Trump nor Vance read

[domiobrien]

Trump doesn't read at all. Vance watched the Lord of the Rings movies, and the Narnia series, and bases his Tolkien and Lewis fandom on those

joy is the point

it's a shame Trump and Vance are peddling fear
