How Free is the Internet in Canada?

The Internet has become the defacto barometer for freedom. Just like you can judge the quality of a civilisation by the state of its public washrooms, you can determine how egalitarian a society is by the level of freedom exhibited by its servers.

Yes its a hugely important subject that people take for granted. Two stark explanations, its so free people don't care to thinkaboot it, or our lizard brains are so programmed we dont care about freedom. Esoteric Exercise for Esotericas.

The people at Freedom house want your opinion about the state of Internet Freedom in Canada. They have chosen as their vessel the esteemed Allen Mendelsohn.  Yes he has more degrees than a thermometer, and Ironicly all from Brick and Mortar Institutions. You may have seen him as the CTV go to guy on Internet law, or sitting in the stands in his famous half and half.

Its a vitally important subject please chime in.

Gilad Atzmon: The Cognitive Elite of Jewish History

Noam Chomsky - Political biography




Here is a man who challenges thought manipulation more than anyone else. Not for him the easy option of playing the 'the things THEY haven't told you. His ego is not that small. He broadens the spectrum of accepted debate going into areas others don't. His contribution to having a better-informed society is immeasurable.
Chomsky's political views have changed little since his childhood, and he adopted the emphasis on political activism that was ingrained in Jewish working-class tradition.  He is usually characterized as an anarcho-syndicalist and/or a socialist libertarian. He views these positions not as precise political theories but as ideas which he thinks best meet the needs of humans: freedom, liberty and community, and association under the conditions of freedom.  Unlike some other socialists, such as those who acceptMarxism, Chomsky believes that politics lies outside the remit of science.of
The key thrust of much of Chomsky's political world-view is the idea that the truth about political realities are systematically distorted or suppressed through the manipulation of corporate interests and elites while his work has focused on revealing these manipulations. He believes that "common sense" is all that is required to break through the web of falsehood and see the truth if it is employed using both critical thinking skills and an awareness of the role that self-interest and self-deception create on both oneself and on others.
Although he had joined protest marches and organized activist groups, he identifies his primarily political outlet as being that of education, offering free lessons and lectures to encourage wider political consciousness. He is a member of the Campaign for Peace and Democracy and the Industrial Workers of the World international union. Chomsky is also a member of the interim consultative committee of the International Organization for a Participatory Society, which he describes as having the potential to "carry us a long way towards unifying the many initiatives here and around the world and molding them into a powerful and effective

Jerking off the World

I used to like chocolate strawberries
and special K
for sure I ate way to many
everyday
before
I looked in the mirror
and discovered
I was lacking fact
sugar breakfast and
dinner desert
made a desert
where there should have
been a oasis
with an oil patch
that would quench 
every thirst

Seeing all and knowing nothing
Jon Snow
that's the penalty we pay
for being human
and not admitting
we are animals at the core
and we need to scrub out
that native cunning
if we are to survive
as a species

The earth it will not die
it will spin for billions or maybe
trillions of years no matter what
it may look like Pluto
but the earth is
not big on fashion
I know for a fact
it has catalogued
that human life
will be harmed
by Kim Kardashian

I am so old now and I hate it
because the pipeline is so 
narrow
all the choices have famished
or are locked behind doors
that are not just in my head

Every now and then
I pick a lock and feel
so refreshed
but Monday morning
comes back again
and I am on the Sunday
Morning Sidewalk
puking my person
all over a paycheck
knowing Kafka
was so right
I am an insect now

Life's rich pageant 
is all we got
and we love our
serialisations
cause they are fictional 
autobiographies
of what we are not

Someone has to break this chain
and get us back to the village again
reality tv is the biggest lie
like Kurt Von said about
Geralda Rivaia
at the demarcation point
he is only Jerry Rivers
and so it goes

World wide Gandhi, or Buddha
with a touch of Mandela
and Einsteins Intelligence
mixed with Bob Dylan's
ability to communicate
is a DNA project 
that we need to assimilate
or its Enders Game

The human misery index
has never been higher
even for those who
have the gold
are way less than historically
satisfied

No justice no peace
is only a band aid
on a world that
knows no social justice
because we are all animals
and the lion does not
ask permission
to rip your throat out
if they target you as weak


Tell me know
Tell me you Know
Tell me something 
Tell me anything
Tell me you are an expert
Tell me about your invisible hand
Tell me its not jerking the world off
Cause Negative Interest Rates
are a total confession
the world is just a human expression

How UFO Secrecy Has Damaged American Intellectual Life and Society

Compassion and Peace Marches


I was told by a one-time friend that compassion was insufficient to stop wars. That peaceful anti-war marches were often unequal to the task they set out to achieve. He said that compassion was not enough. You needed more. Sometimes violence was required to make the point, that those ends justify the means. I did not, do not, cannot, will not ever concede that point.

He thought I was a pacifist. I am not. I would defend my homeland as I would my family and if in that defence my enemy was killed, regrettable and horrid an eventuality as that would be, self-preservation is Tao. It is the way of things. Defence of oneself is a natural and a legitimate act.

My one time friend then, thinking I was a pacifist, told me he wasn't. That act's of violence are sometimes required in aid of making a point and that he had and would use violent methods of protest to that end.

That is wrong.

Wrong about compassion. Wrong about violent protest.

He also asked me to number the times peaceful protests had achieved their aims?

In truth, I don't know much less care. You either are a peace protester or you aren't. If you are not someone who protests peacefully then you are no different to those you protest about.
Ironically, my one-time friend now insists he is a pacifist and, oddly enough, always was.

I guess that means something and for the sake of a once valued friendship I accept that it takes two to tango. And so long as that dance is a peaceful one I think it best to forgive and forget.

Peace must be achieved by peaceful means.

We have Predictions

Trump will be the next US President.  

Hillary will squeak past Sanders solidifying her place as the staus quo. This victory will open up black and white divides withing the Democratic party.Trump will use the perceived overreach of Black lives to club her like a baby seal in the Election.  

The Republicans will control all three houses. It will be chaos and destruction. Old white men ruling over a nation filled with hungry Hispanics and Blacks.

Turkey is on a suicide mission, Ergegon is a warlord. The Kurds are playing the final hand of a long game. There will be a civil war in Turkey and NATO will sit on its hands.

The government of the Ukraine will collapse. Another American puppet with strings not strong enough to support the unsupportable.

No to Trident in the UK

Dear Russell,
On 27th February I’ll be marching as part of the biggest
mobilisation against nuclear weapons in a generation and 
I am writing in the hope that you might be willing to 
join me to help Stop Trident.
Nuclear weapons belong in the past and the £100bn 
(and rising) cost of replacing Trident would be 
better spent on things that can genuinely 
make us safer and more secure. Creating jobs, 
building schools & hospitals, giving everyone 
in the world access to clean water and conflict prevention. 
Watch this video to find out more.
It would also be a game changer in tackling what 
everyone from President Obama to Tony Blair have called 
the most significant security threat of our time: 
climate change. £100bn could make 15 million homes 
warmer or build 100,000 wind turbines – enough to power 
all households in the UK.
Will you help spread the word by sharing this video 
via social media? You can also share with your MP 
and ask them to vote against replacing Trident.
It’s time to move on from Trident and I hope you’ll join 
me in being part of a better future.
Yours,
Caroline
PS sharing this video will help build momentum. 
Please help me do that and I hope to see you at 
the march on 27th February.
