3. Monsters and Saints in Horrible Situations
… and the need to change our horrible country system. Revelations handed by a remarkable Christian pastor (who unlike most IMHO, actually follows the Jesus Christ described in the Bible gospels (namely fighting for social justice)). Not perfect because he sadly seems to blend together ALL Germans as fascists during the fascist tyranny Germany went through from 1933 to 1945; and he is clearly misinformed about the Ukrainian war therefore passing on the mass media propaganda he has swallowed up and believes; but luckily these are tiny pieces in this video. The rest can give us some worthwhile insights and remind us of changes we must fight for.

I think it takes quite some time to learn how to deal with lots of tactics used by the oligarchy to prevent political peopleās parties from coming into existence. The one that has been trying to rise up for us over the last five years or so has had to struggle with this, and the most recent attack hit it so hard that we heard little besides rumors for the last six months. A way too long delay in moving forward. I conclude that this sprouting party still depends too much on a single leading person. It needs to grow to a size where there are too many well known and admired people in it than the oligarchy can wipe off thew table with things like personal accusations being made when possibly accidental or fictional but nevertheless harmful. Let us, the people, not forget that we currently exist in a mafia-like system of greedy money lords and power seekers who we must dethrone and whose corruption of our society we must fix. And another reminder: since mistakes happen sooner or later in any human team, especially when it has to fight so much with sneaky oligarchs, we ā the people ā must build up people movements that (A) back a peopleās party and/or champion candidates in elections, plus (B) are always ready to put pressure on politicians and parties for our sake whenever necessary (thus kicking out corrupt infiltration that can seep into any party sooner or later if not watched and pressured enough from the bottom). Well, I am glad that the current Peopleās Party may now return into sprouting. But please, faster and broader now, getting more efficient. OK? š

David Graeber ā from the Occupy Wall Street movement, reputed to have coined and promoted the statement āWe are the 99%ā, and shared here on Beanstockās World a bunch of times with his astounding insights ā has died 10 days ago at age 59. Yes, only 59(!) from āinternal bleedingā. Lethal internal bleeding at such a young age and without a bullet or knife stab or such smells to me a lot like COVID-19, to be honest. Oddly, an issues not mentioned anywhere on the main media (not even on Wikipedia). Here, btw, is an article digging into the broad spectrum of coronavirus symptoms: The Great Invader: How COVID Attacks Every Organ
Bolivia may seem remote and unimportant to many Americans, but there is much to learn from its old and recent history marked by the same forces that ruin our American democracy and lives. The recent coup in Bolivia and the preceding history of the Bolivian grassroots movement and its critique of U.S. imperialism have therefore been intensely covered on this site. As mentioned before, to look up those past and all future reports, simply click this search link.

Note: Over time these video weekend posts have grown to a very large size. For now they are shrinking since I am stuck in continued education costing me much time in an effort to resurrect a former career to rescue myself from sweatshops and precarious short-term/regular-un/and-frequent-under-employment. You still got hours of enlightening stuff to watch for your weekend, though, instead of pointless sports, bad entertainment, and cable propaganda ānewsā. Enjoy:

This year, as on some prior occasions, my family had no time and energy to prepare for a festive Christmas break. So we went to a grocery shortly before they all closed on Christmas Eve to buy some tasty tidbits and breads. One star among the latter was a French baguette. Sadly, it broke on the way to the cash register. We noticed it but decided to buy it anyway. It was somehow symbolic for my whole life to me. We decided to make its fracture harmless by eating it first, long before its fracture could dry it out. We even made good use of the fracture by doubling it over in our shopping bag that it otherwise wouldnāt have fit into. Bendable bread. Neat. Best thing since sliced bread perhaps. š
Making the best of all circumstances, good, bad, and horrible ā thatās been my life. It seemed suitable to celebrate a family holiday that way. Oh, and isnāt Christ supposed to have broken some bread to feed the many?Ā Ā Continue reading “A Broken-Bread Christmas”→

Consumerism is part of the yoke by which we are controlled, enslaved, and distracted from lifeās priorities. We should use our holidays more for spending time with friends and family and less on barreling through stores and heaping giant loads of useless junk on everyone. Thatās why I shared a critical consumerism documentary in last weekās Video Weekend.
