Donald Trump is not Racist

hello fellow earthlings. 

my name is a.b. corduroy.

​I want to talk to you not as a american, but as an earthling. 

it is election year in the "united states of america". 

 the american empire is crumbling

what happens next is up to us

i urge you to not live in fear.

I do not believe Trump or his supporters... (as a whole) are racist. 

Individually you can make your cases. 

As a whole Trump and his supporters are nationalist. 

I'm not saying that makes them right. 

Nationality has become the racism of the 21st Century. There is a clear distinction in the two. 

While I believe the passion felt by some of the Trump folks is genuine, These folks believe there are rules to follow that make America what it should be. They care about their country and their families and they have been severely distracted.  

While you may have been told for years immigration/illegals are causing you problems it is not.

Land is not owned by man.

Nor is water.

we may harvest it in bits, Mother Nature is greater than any cloth flag or paper document.

If Uncle Sam wanted to clean up the land, he very easily could have.  

You don't think they do all that spying and don't know how to root out illegals, do you? do you?

It's a distraction for whatever other agenda the Republican establishment has had. 

Tax breaks for the richest of rich, war, etc..

I very much appreciate my geographic location on earth but realize empires rise and fall.

There are thousands upon thousands of people without homes because the US and others have destroyed Syria and neighboring lands. 

even in the United States millions living poorer than I can ever fathom and I'm not well off. I struggle to pay my responsibles frequently.  

On top of that climate change is and will continue to send people migrating to new lands as their former homes are destroyed or left without resources.

I have drove many many miles across the United States. There is land to spare. 

if we don't share and care for what we have, be that the United States, Europe, Antarctica, wherever they will crumble just as the American empire, British Empire, the Roman Empire, etc.

To my fellow earthlings who believe Trump will get us back on track, I urge you to think bigger. 

i know you work hard and you are frustrated but we can do it without fear. 

United we stand, divided we fall.

i'm loosing my attention span.  

be free fellow earthlings,

So I Had A Thought

Call me crazy but... we could just cut out all the bullshit and all fly into Washington D.C. and demand to start over again. You know: rewrite the constitution, rewrite the law! Then there'd be no speculation on "what the forefathers intended".

Of course we'd need a level minded leader or we'd end up in the same predicament as Occupy Wall Street. Not that I don't respect what they did, but without a leader you're just an angry mob.

I mean we have planes and cars. It'd be a lot easier than any other time in history. But... we'd have to get off work, we'd have to get babysitters, we'd have to fit it into our "busy" schedules. 

I mean it's easier to sit around and gripe about and speculate about it all anyway. Isn't it?

I mean I know I don't fully understand how it all works. But of course you understand EXACTLY what's happening in Syria and Wall Street and in the Pentagon for that matter.

I know so many of you do, right? No, you don't. You just think you do. Do you believe what the internet memes tell you or that newspaper you read. Because depending on what region of this country you live in there is certainly some kind of bias to what you'll read.

It's true something needs to change. The education system is all kinds of messed up, we're still printng paper money that has absolutely no value, we're still policing the world, the gap in rich in poor is greater than it's been in a century, this list could go on and on. 

How about half us march outside the Pentagon and half in Washington D.C.?? Think about how much of an impact we could make. That's craziness though, right?

Since when has protesting ever worked? it's the United States of America and the year A.D. 2013; we fill out internet  surveys.

Something needs to be done and I can't do it alone. Until the Middle Class stands up and says enough is enough and demands real change things will remain mundane at best. Get use to it or quit bitching.

It's just a thought; I had to get it out of my head.

That's all I've got.

Have a nice day. Enjoy life.

Dirty South

I don't see what'd be so bad about letting the Southeastern United States be it's own entity? We can still trade with the crazy fucks, but why let them tarnish what little integrity the United States has left?

Or maybe the Pacific Northwest just needs to become it's own country. I think I'd be down for that.

But really...what the fuck Florida? Texas?

There's A Weirdness In The Air

I don't know how to put it into words, but my mind is racing with thoughts. That's nothing new, but I want to write them out.

I don't feel so well with the current situations in Washington D.C.

No empires last forever. ​

Guess I'll just make more coffee and keep thinking thoughts. ​

The Gods Will Be Dead Before We Reach Them

It is not until we forget the expectations of our generation; to work, to love, and to multiply that we will be free to fly with the eagles, run with the antelopes, and sing with the birds.

It is not until we connect with the former world, respect the fragility of the present, and the potential of the next that the magic of the ancients will be revealed to us.

We as a specie (manimals that walk on two feet and think with logic and reason) have attained the greatest technology in recorded history but have forgotten we too will eventually be history.

With all that knowledge we should be more fixed on preserving the world we have worked so hard to understand rather than extracting all it's resources like there is no more tomorrow. 

Religions come and go. Polytheism is largely a thing of the past. The age of monotheism is the "modern way". Christianity leads the way with the greatest numbers in monotheism right now. Islam is a close competitor. Maybe in the next hundred years or so Islam will be the new major religion of the world.

What I'm trying to say is that none of that matters. We should accept it for what things as they are and agree to disagree. I’m not saying any of the said religions are right necessarily. I honestly think they aren’t, but if they give people purpose and they aren’t hurting anyone let them do what they want.

We are intelligent beings. The Greatest? That’s debatable, but we make great buildings, gadgets, and road systems that have mapped much of the known world. But our specie’s time as "king" is so relatively minute in the grand age of our planet. 

We are absolute nothings, but that is where we should find humility and look to be all we can be. It's true we are but a blink in time so why not let petty arguments rest and worry about the bigger things? We should strive for greater goodness.

If one meteor crashed into Central China the entire world’s economy would be thrown into chaos. Think about in just the United States how many products are branded “Made In China”. Think of the minerals that are harvested there for your fancy technology or the numbers of people that labor away to make the clothes on your back that would no longer exist.

It could happen anywhere. In the blink of an eye and destruction and devastation; we think just because we are so evolved the universe will not throw us curveballs. We should know better. Nature is a fierce beast who does what she wants. The Earth is ever changing; even if ever so slowly it’s still evolving. We use to be a planet of fire and rock and now we are lush with vast, blue oceans.

There was a time when Dinosaurs ruled the world. They were a “great” species as well, but then they were wiped away by a meteor and never returned. That was a long time ago you may say.

I would have to agree. That is very true. But who’s to say that wouldn’t happen to us? We are just one minor specie on a minor planet in a universe amongst thousands of universes. Take solace and humility in that. Live life to the fullest, but also respect the great web of nature that we are a part of.

With great knowledge also comes responsibility. Let’s be more resourceful with what we have on this planet. Treat the other creatures that we share this planet with some respect. If you are still enough you can understand them. Those who came before did.

I think it’s very probable that our planet will go traumatic experiences that will change everything we know. So while protecting our home it is also only reasonable to search out the prospect of new ones. Obviously there is plenty here, but we are soaking it all up fast.

And even with all these thoughts I know that humans will still fight, and they will still wage war. That’s the animal in us all. That’s a whole other rambling of thoughts for a later time.

As for now the only true gods I know of that have any validity and dependability are the stars. They have lit the skies for millions of years. They have been a source of directions to sailors and nomads. They tell us about ourselves; even directly affect our personalities. 

The Sun for instance is just a super star that gives us life. A star so great we can’t look at it with our bare eyes or we’d go blind. Without it we’d have no life at all. Even still with all its awe inspiring power our sun is not unique. There are many suns and many stars in the numerous galaxies beyond our comprehension.

We should be aiming to live amongst the stars. After all we are all star stuff anyway. Made up of the many chemicals and scientific stuff that I a commoner know nothing about except the same thing we are made of is what is in outer space and everywhere. We were just fortunate (or unfortunate) enough to take on this form. I’d be talking gibberish if I attempted to get into that.

Let us go strive to go back to which we came and put our petty wars aside. Let’s reach for the gods. The gods that will be dead before we reach them; that’s pure science, but that doesn’t mean we should stop the pursuit of a greater goodness.

I'm over the "Ashamed to be American Shit"

But I'm also tired of politicians who we vote into office being stubborn assholes. 

Take gay marriage as an example. Let's be real with each other. To me not voting it into law is makes us look just as extreme Christian as the radical Muslim countries ​we hate on so much. And don't tell me we don't hate. Because this country does. Not everyone. But a lot of us.

Just ready for this country to be logical again. We need more politicians to call things like it they are. Sometimes there is no black and white, sometimes there's a weird grey area and that should be addressed and we should be okay with meeting in the grey.​

​Let me go on record saying gay marriage... it ain't going to hurt nobody. Maybe Uncle Sam because that's more tax breaks. But I don't understand that part so maybe not so.

​We need American politicians to be more real like this dude!
