Ex-NBA star Charles Barkley rips politicians for creating racial division
By Mark Moore
April 5, 2021

*** begin quote ***

“​I truly believe in my heart most white people and ​b​lack people are awesome people, but we’re so stupid following our politicians, whether they’re Republicans or Democrats, and their only job is, ‘Hey, let’s make these people not like each other. We don’t live in their neighborhoods, we all got ​the ​money, let’s make the whites and ​b​lacks not like each other, let’s make rich people and poor people not like each other, let’s scramble the middle class.’ I truly believe that in my heart​,” he continued. ​

*** end quote ***

Man, I love this guy.

Every time, I hear one of his pronouncements I am astonished at how much I agree with him.

If he runs for office, then I’ll vote for him.

At least, he has common sense and a good heart.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Inflation: a hidden tax on income

Friday, April 9, 2021

How The Nation’s Central Bank Is Covertly ‘Nudging’ Americans To Accept Digital Money & The Great Reset – LewRockwell

*** begin quote ***

Inflation is how government robs money from taxpayers.  For example, wage earners put good money into Social Security and 50 years later take out inflated money that has reduced purchasing power.  A $321 average Social Security check in 1980, adjusted for inflation, should be $7529.  Instead the average Social Security check is ~$1543 today.

Zang notes: “Wealth never really disappears; it just shifts location.”

*** end quote ***

I keep ranting about I have to live to 132 to steal back all the FICA that was stolen from me.

I’ve reported and cited that the Rate Of Return for “Social Security” is a NEGATIVE 8%.

Imagine how wealthy a society we would have if we were allow to keep our own earnings and plan for our own retirement?

Argh!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Expect any Gooferment program to be done well?

Friday, April 9, 2021

New York’s vaccine passport program is already failing
The Cuomo-IBM idiocracy can’t produce a good product.
Jordan Schachtel
Apr 5

*** begin quote ***
 
Liberty advocates, rejoice! The idiocracy is going to save us from another form of COVID tyranny. Thanks to a combination of bungling authoritarians and decaying legacy corporations, these entities are simply too incompetent to pull off a functioning vaccine passport program. 

New York’s rollout of its vaccine passport already has the markings of a five alarm dumpster fire. The New York State “Excelsior Pass” vaccine passport system, which was created by IBM, has so many issues that I wouldn’t be surprised if the program was scrapped altogether before the end of the calendar year. It has massive security flaws, a shrinking customer base by design, it remains incredibly impractical, and it’s incredibly easy to manipulate. Excelsior Pass sucks, thanks to the idiocracy that was responsible for its design and implementation.

*** end quote ***

I’d expect a fiasco from the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerk but IBM?

Guess they should have gone with Tata.

At least it would have been a cheaper disaster!

POLITICAL: Too much politics is killing everything!

Major League Baseball Risks Losing The Last of Its Politics-Weary Viewers After Moving Game Over Georgia’s Election Law
By Michael McCaffrey

April 6, 2021

*** begin quote ***

Sports fans like me are simply exhausted by the endless hyper-politicization of everything in our culture, and we look to sports to escape, not to be politically assaulted. MLB would be very wise to avoid playing politics any further and instead focus on fixing their ailing game and playing decent ball.

*** end quote ***

It’s killing any patience I have with the “theater”.

The NFL pseudo patriotism was a “big straw” in breaking “this camel’s back”.

Argh!

TINFOILHAT: Were the Capital “revolt”, “riots”, “secession”, “sedition”, just plain old “political theater”

Thursday, April 8, 2021

Unanswered questions about Capitol riots
DATED: APRIL 6, 2021 BY STAFF

*** begin quote ***

How many firearms were seen or confiscated from individuals inside or on the Capitol grounds on January 6?

*** end quote ***

Of course, if it was a “revolt” or an “attempt to take over the Gooferment”, it was the lamest one that I’ve ever seen on TV.

In actuality, I believe it was “political theater” by persons and groups unknown to enshrine Biden and disgrace DJT45.

If too, it worked.

“We, The Sheeple” are rubes for this type of propaganda.

Sigh!

TECHNOLOGY: Digital services ARE “common carriers”

Wednesday, April 7, 2021

https://www.protocol.com/bulletins/thomas-scotus-twitter-trump-ban

BULLETINS Justice Thomas argues for making Facebook, Twitter and Google utilities
Thomas argues that some digital platforms are “sufficiently akin” to common carriers like telephone companies.
Issie Lapowsky
April 5, 2021

*** begin quote ***

Thomas argues that while private companies aren’t subject to the First Amendment, common carriers are unique to other private businesses in that they do not have the “right to exclude.” Thomas suggests that large tech platforms with substantial market power should be bound by the same restrictions. “If the analogy between common carriers and digital platforms is correct, then an answer may arise for dissatisfied platform users who would appreciate not being blocked: laws that restrict the platform’s right to exclude,” Thomas writes.

Such a restriction would substantially curb tech giants’ ability to moderate content, a proposal that both tech giants and those on the left who want to see more aggressive content moderation online would almost certainly reject.

Thomas goes on to describe the sheer scope of Facebook and Google’s market power, citing Facebook’s roughly 3 billion users and Google’s 90% market share in search. “It changes nothing that these platforms are not the sole means for distributing speech or information. A person always could choose to avoid the toll bridge or train and instead swim the Charles River or hike the Oregon Trail,” Thomas writes. “But in assessing whether a company exercises substantial market power, what matters is whether the alternatives are comparable. For many of today’s digital platforms, nothing is.”

*** end quote ***

And, as I have often posted before, if they want to moderate content, then they should be responsible for ALL content!

UC BERKELY: New Jersey’s Covid -19 response is among the nation’s worst

So take this analysis with a grain of salt, but it’s instructive that the Murphy Administration is a failure by the respective yardsticks of the Right AND the Left.

*** end quote ***

Sorry, but as a “victim” stuck in the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee, King Murphy is a tyrant.

INSPIRATIONAL: Universal Laws of Human Stupidity

Tuesday, April 6, 2021

https://getpocket.com/explore/item/the-five-universal-laws-of-human-stupidity

POCKET WORTHYStories to fuel your mind.
The Five Universal Laws of Human Stupidity
We underestimate the stupid, and we do so at our own peril.
QuartzCorinne Purtill

*** begin quote ***

Law 1: Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.

Law 2: The probability that a certain person be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.

Law 3. A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.

Law 4: Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places and under any circumstances to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.

Law 5: A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.

*** end quote ***

This explains how some “smart” people can be so “stupid”.

Wonder where I fall in this spectrum?
