I've posted this before, but I'm posting it again. A Christian conservative nutjob, named Adrian Zenz, who thinks God created him to take China down cooked up a totally fake report with manipulated numbers and links that don't say what he claims they...

do, and reported that China is conducting a genocide of its Uyghurs.

US politicians and US media, seeking negative publicity to use in economic warfare, to manufacture consent for future sanctions (and potentially war) grabbed onto this fake report and...
have been using it as leverage in diplomatic relations and telling it to the entire world as if it's true. It is unclear whether any politician is doing this on purpose. But there's no excuse for anyone in media not doing the slightest bit of basic....
research before claiming a country is committing genocide.

Tonight is the City Council meeting that was delayed last week for contract talks with the Fire Protection District Board. Once again I have submitted a comment about cannabis, in advance of the Council re-examining the illegal ordinance they passed several months ago. Here is... Image
my comment:

"I'm sure you are quite aware that a number of your constituents want to be able to have a cannabis dispensary. Some number of folks don't have a strong opinion on the subject, while others are vehemently opposed to allowing dispensaries.

Some of those people... Image
pretend a city should ban cannabis because they don't like the smell. Others pretend that cannabis dispensaries will turn our city into a festering crime haven, often insulting the beautiful city to our south in the process.

To that I say: they should have more faith in... Image

In anticipation of the American Canyon City Council reviewing the illegal ordinance it passed a few months ago, I am focusing my public comments (as you may have noticed) on #cannabis. Here's the comment I submitted ahead of Tuesday's meeting:

Today I would like to talk... 1/8
about how many seniors I've seen stand up and give testimony to how cannabis has helped them and demand the right to be able to go to a local store for their medicine. Getting it from a delivery service is very complicated. But don't just take it from me. I've solicited... 2/8
a few comments from seniors:

Walter, age 62 " I was diagnosed with Lupus about 7 years ago when I was 55 or so. Worst symptom was and has been joint pain. Initially I was prescribed Norco however they had to keep increasing the dose. Next they prescribed Hysingla, a step...3/8

This is not a democracy. And it's not peacetime. You live in a brutal #empire that exploits and enslaves people throughout the global south, and leaves a wake of putrid oil, poisonous acids, mined-out pits and blood behind it. This empire enforces... 1/5

extreme poverty and racist violence and gang violence throughout much of the world. And when poor people try to rise up and replace oppressive governments with popularly elected ones, the empire will help rig elections or overthrow elected leaders. 2/5

thegrayzone.com/2021/03/08/cen…
If the empire decides to overthrow a leader, that leader will be dubbed a dictator and the poor of that country will be starved until they are dissatisfied enough with their government to make a coup easier.

Fuck Joe Biden for this horrible shit... 3/5

For five years, people on the left have felt the need to attach a disclaimer to any statement about someone or anything that criticizes a Democrat. We didn't used to have to do that, didn't have to say "Not that I like Bob Dole" or constantly defend...1/4

against people accusing you of being a Bush supporter. Nowadays it seems like the truth isn't ALLOWED to fall outside party lines, and it happens on the left and the right.

And I think that the very disclaimers that we've all felt like we HAD to... 2/4

include or people are going to go nuts on you, have helped to legitimize these attacks. I call them attacks because that's what they are. It's not just an accusation of being a rightie, it's an accusation of being a stupid ass hole who happens to BE...3/4

In most years, this would be a taste of what the average person might spend into the economy. Almost every other country in the industrialized world has been covering most of people's paychecks since the lockdown began. The US hasn't. Instead we got $1200, then $600, and... 1/10 Image
in the newest bill we'll get $1400. Except that not all of us have gotten them.

This $1400 check is being hailed as a great bill by all the establishment Democrats and by the media that seldom challenges anything they say. But Joe Biden DID promise us $2000. He promised... 2/10 Image
it over and over again, leading up to the runoff in Georgia, and then he changed it. I don't want to hear your lame excuses, that's what happened.

Then they decided to means test the checks, so fewer people will get checks under Biden than under Trump. How are you going... 3/10 Image

If a network or a newspaper doesn't send reporters to other places to ask questions and report on what they see and hear, then that network or newspaper is just a mouthpiece. Period. @CNN may go to Texas or California, but did they go to Myanmar? Did they go to Syria? Or... 1/3
Venezuela? Did they go to Brazil when the Amazon was burning? Germany? They told you that Putin poisoned Navalny, but did they go to Germany and talk to Navalny? How about India? There have been huge farmer protests against Mohdi. Did they send someone? How can... 2/3
you call yourself a journalist if you don't go places and ask people questions? 3/3
