There are too many horrible human beings in ICE and law enforcement.
This country had better find a way to fix their dumb asses now because, sooner or later, they are going to use the same corrupt practices and dirty tricks against more Americans.
This country needs to rip away every shred of immunity, real or imagined, strip them of their two-tier pensions and retirement plans, and put them on track to be at risk as every other private citizen.
Violate human rights … lose your home and pay and benefits.
And you cannot have another federal or state government job so your buddies can’t hire you.
Astroturfers – Fake grassroots accounts that push a coordinated agenda while pretending to be independent users.
Clout chasers – Users who insert themselves into trending topics or controversies just to gain attention or followers.
Concern trolls – Pretend to be sympathetic while actually undermining a cause or argument.
Drama baiters – Those who stir up conflicts for engagement.
Edgelords – People who post controversial or offensive content to provoke reactions.
Engagement farmers – Posting low-effort, inflammatory, or misleading content just to rack up likes and comments.
Reply guys – Users who constantly respond to posts (often from women or marginalized voices) with condescending or intrusive comments, usually to assert dominance or correctness.
Sealions – Persistently asking bad-faith questions to waste time or derail conversations.
Shitposters – Sometimes used for humor, but can also apply to deliberately annoying posts.
Sockpuppets – Fake accounts created to support one’s own arguments, manipulate discourse, or evade bans.
Tone police – People who dismiss valid points by criticizing how something is said rather than addressing the substance.
Private sector employees work harder for less pay and fewer benefits.
Government sector employees are bleeding counties and states dry with their overcompensation compared to private employees.
There is an overwhelming amount of nepotism, favoritism, cronyism, tribalism, and racism in government jobs.
They like to claim they’re making a big sacrifice by working for the government, but then they turn around & do whatever they can to get their family and friends hired into government positions.
Many government employees receive better compensation packages, better retirement benefits, and better job security than employees in the private sector. It’s a bribe.
They are middle-class people who run around as if they are one or two classes above the average American.
If we want to fix their asses, we should make sure that these government employees are on the same track as average Americans.
Both private and public employees on the same system. No two tier. No special privileges.
No enlistee should be sworn in until after completing basic training. People should be free to walk away without penalty. (Some military academies have different policies.)
Retirement plans should begin around six years of service, not at twenty.
Veterans should pay less in taxes, even if it’s just a token one or two percent.
The GI Bill for education and other educational benefits should never expire.
The veteran identification card I received looks cheap, cartoonish, and unprofessional. It reflects a complete lack of respect for veterans. I understand that Office Depot supposedly sponsored the cards, but that doesn’t justify putting their logo on the back. I never worked for them. They should have stamped “Honorable Discharge” on our actual military ID cards instead of taking them away.
Punitive and other types of undesirable discharges should not follow someone for the rest of their lives. It is malicious and vindictive. See the next point for why undesirable discharges should expire.
There are too many psychopaths and sociopaths in our government. The January 6 rioters are proof enough. These people need to be screened more carefully.
For the record, I loved my time in the U.S. Army. I was just lucky.
Moses and the “Israelites” were nothing but a raging and violent army that killed people and stole land belonging to other groups and tribes, like the Canaanites.
Canaanites were already established in the region several centuries before Abraham and about 1,500 years before Moses.
That 40 years of “wandering in the wilderness” nonsense was actually a time used to murder boys while kidnapping girls to build an army.
During both world wars, the British monarchy profited from people who died without leaving a will.

Nope! We won't fix the problem until we start at the beginning. As far as recent history, the clock starts in the 1880s, NOT in 1921 or 1947.
-
The first invasion into Palestine occurred during the First Aliyah (1881-1903).
-
One of the dishonest things Zionists did was to quietly start paying poor and presumably homeless Jewish people to move to Palestine in the 1880s to flood the region with Jewish people. Many Jewish people lied on their immigration paperwork to get into Palestine.
-
In 1897, the First Zionist Congress in Basle, Switzerland declared, "Zionism seeks for the Jewish people a publicly recognized legally secured homeland in Palestine" (Basel Program).
-
Everything that the Zionists did after that became an International conspiracy to steal land.
-
And instead of meeting in Palestine to "buy land," the Zionists congresses met with mostly the British and White Europeans for almost 30/40-years in places like Basle, Switzerland; London, England; and The Hague, Netherlands ... everywhere EXCEPT in Palestine.
-
The early Zionist Congresses used German and Yiddish as their main languages, and later used English, French, and Russian, which kept the people living in Palestine misinformed.
-
For over 1,000 years, White Europeans expelled or murdered Jews. No one really wanted Jewish people in their own country so when the Zionists decided to steal land in Palestine in the 1890s, mostly White Americans and Europeans conspired to help them. They had everyone in their back pocket before the people living in Palestine understood what was going on.
-
None of the countries in the Middle East supported this plan. The people living in Palestine were never fairly advised or consulted and when they understood, they protested. Zionists ignored them.
-
If I wanted to “buy land” in New York City, I would NOT go to Europe for 30/40 years to make deals.
One of my very favorite philosophers. 25 Minute Video.

Robert Green Ingersoll (1833–1899) was an American lawyer, orator, and political leader known for his broad influence during the Golden Age of Freethought in the late 19th century. Often referred to as "The Great Agnostic," Ingersoll was a staunch advocate of secularism, skepticism, and humanistic philosophy, challenging orthodox religious beliefs and the literal interpretation of the Bible.
-
Born in Dresden, New York, Ingersoll was the son of a Congregationalist minister. His early life was marked by frequent moves due to his father's controversial theology, which often put the family in conflict with various church congregations. Ingersoll studied law and passed the bar exam in 1854, embarking on a successful legal career. He also became involved in politics, aligning with the Republican Party and supporting Abraham Lincoln.
-
Ingersoll's fame primarily stemmed from his skills as an orator. His public speeches, advocating for scientific skepticism and criticizing religious doctrine, drew large crowds and stirred significant controversy. He was a defender of civil rights and argued for the equality of women and African Americans. Despite his criticisms of religion, he was noted for his advocacy of kindness, love, and family.
-
Ingersoll's influence extended to various areas, including politics, religion, and civil rights. He was a prolific speaker and writer, and his lectures and essays contributed significantly to the spread of free thought and secularism in the United States. His legacy is remembered for his eloquent advocacy of reason and humanistic values over religious dogmatism.
