The Dreadful Compromises that Created America
» KEY POINTS The process of creating the Constitution was so flawed and rushed that only 39 of the original 74 delegates actually signed off on it.Repercussions—both predicted and unexpected—have been rippling down through time because imperfect men made compromises just to get State legislatures to give in. In order to correct these issues and reaffirm the values supposed in the Constitution and purported by Americans, we must approve a massive amount of new Amendments.

People Call Me a Liberal, As If That’s An Insult
One thing I openly own and love about myself: I’m a bleeding heart liberal. I care for all people who are good humans. The marginalized groups of society are my family. I love the LGBTQ community. I don’t give a good goddamn whether you have a problem with that or not.

Global Suicide: Humanity, Especially in U$, Is Unfit to Survive
Humanity is not going to make it. We could if we wanted to . . . buuuuttt . . . we’re not willing to lift our butts long enough to pull it off. Unrestrained greed, self-interest, & little that resembles logic are the main factors driving human animosity towards others, whether they be one’s brother, neighbor, or distant international foe. Putting the emphasis on our differences rather than on our commonalities & mutual needs is a primary driver for sending us over the edge into the chaotic void we are witnessing.

I’d Rather Hang Out in an Echo Chamber

This never became more evident than after I joined and actively participated in social media.
