“The worst illiterate is the political illiterate,
He doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political events.
He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the shoes and the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics.
The imbecile doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.” Bertolt Brecht

I am currently collecting some of the latest scientific research on the End Permian Mass Extinction (EPME) event where sedimentary records tracing the geochemical, microfossil, and geophysical changes have been studied down to centimeter scales. In areas of China and in the Sydney (Australia) Basin, analysis of cores show a sharp transition from coal beds formed in peaty mires under dense forests of broad-leafed trees to layers of charcoal and comparatively sterile mineral soils, with shallow and largely anaerobic seasonal ponds replete with bluegreen algae and fungi that took tens to hundreds of thousands of years to redevelop much biodiversity.

==================================
Lightning-sparked wildfires killed thousands of giant sequoias this year, adding to a staggering two-year death toll that accounts for up to nearly a fifth of Earth’s largest trees, officials said on Friday.
Fires in Sequoia national park and the surrounding national forest that also bears the trees’ name tore through more than a third of groves in California and torched an estimated 2,261 to 3,637 sequoias. Fires in the same area last year killed an unprecedented 7,500 to 10,400 of the 75,000 trees.
...
In 2013, the park had done climate modeling that predicted extreme fires wouldn’t jeopardize sequoias for another 50 years, said Christy Brigham, chief of resource management and science at the two parks. But that was at the start of what became a punishing five-year drought that essentially broke the model.
Amid the drought in 2015, the park saw giant sequoias torched for the first time. Two fires in 2017 killed more giant sequoias, serving as a warning for what was to come. “Then the Castle fire happened, and it was like, ‘Oh, my God,’” Brigham said. “We went from the warning sign to hair on fire. To lose 7,000 trees in one fire is crazy.”

Christofascism - People being viewed as property has roots in the bible:
Exodus 21:20-21
20; “Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, 21; "but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property"
Deuteronomy 21:10-13
13; “When you go out to war against your enemies, and the Lord your God gives them into your hand and you take them captive, 11; "and you see among the captives a beautiful woman, and you desire to take her to be your wife, 12; "and you bring her home to your house, she shall shave her head and pare her nails. 13; "And she shall take off the clothes in which she was captured and shall remain in your house."
Deuteronomy 22:28–29
28; "If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered,(A) 29; "he shall pay her father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.
The New Testament:
Ephesians 6:5
6"Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ."
1 Peter 2:18
18; "Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters, (A) not only to those who are good and considerate,(😎 but also to those who are harsh.
1 Timothy 6: 1-2
1; "All who are under the yoke of slavery should consider their masters worthy of full respect,(A) so that God’s name and our teaching may not be slandered.(😎 2; "Those who have believing masters should not show them disrespect just because they are fellow believers."

What's more, the incumbent President couldn't even get HALF of Democrats to say that he should run again, though a plurality (45%) said that he should. These are remarkably bad poll numbers, but they should be used as guidance for the Democratic Party moving forward.”

Over a decade, that increase alone would amount to more spending than all of the healthcare provisions currently in the Build Back Better Act."”

“This morning I noticed looking at #covid_19 statistics Nov. 22, 2020, 3 weeks before initial Coronavirus vaccinations began, while we had mentally incompetent, uncaring Trump, there were less #Covid cases than Nov. 22, 2021. President Joe Biden didn't push for MONTHLY $2000 checks for real #CovidRelief for people to stay home nor did he push for #MedicareForAll or even the insufficient #PublicOption, (which in a weird twist, some Republican politicians are pushing a Public Option) for people to have healthcare during a #Pandemic, then on May 3, 2021, The Los Angeles Times reported that at least since April 20, the CDC knew that fully vaccinated people could still get #coronavirus and be hospitalized and die from it (indeed, Maryland documented its first breakthrough Covid case of a fully vaccinated person on January 26, and the first fully vaccinated Covid deaths in Maryland were in February), then in 'mission accomplished' move to have the superficial appearance of normalcy, Biden spent May 14 through July telling vaccinated people they could go unmasked and not distanced to have parties for Memorial Day, July 4th, etc. as #Delta beared down on us and it was clear fully vaccinated people were spreading Covid at mass super spreader events like in Provincetown, Massachusetts, and even in late-July, Biden told the CNN audience if they got vaccinated they wouldn't get Covid, despite news stories nationwide of breakthrough cases. #BidenLiedPeopleDied!
And Biden and his cronies gaslighted people calling this a "pandemic of the unvaccinated," ignored or downplayed vaccine side effects like blood clots, myocarditis, extreme menstrual disturbances which can involve bleeding so excessive it leads to hysterectomy, kidney damage, Guillain-Barré syndrome, etc. have been reported by reputable sources like Reuters, New York Times, Washington Post, NBC News, BBC, as well as the FDA, CDC, and NIH, and Biden threatened the jobs (therefore the ability to pay for food, housing, heating fuel, and other necessities) of the unvaccinated as we go into the holidays and winter to boost vaccination with a pharmaceutical product that has demonstrated faulty and quickly waning efficacy.
Of course to be fair, like Trump, Biden is mentality incompetent and uncaring... and we knew that during the Democratic primaries when corporate Dems pushed the worst possible nominee out of more than 20 candidates, Biden, in their 'anybody but Bernie' effort, because Senator Bernie Sanders actually wanted people to have healthcare, earn a living wage, and be treated with dignity.
So as we go into another holiday season with a raging pandemic and a government with wrong-headed responses, I'll make what may be a futile plea for people to stay home, have Zoom or other virtual family gatherings, don't go to concerts, sporting events, etc., and when you must go out, mask with an N95 mask and distance.
Be safe!

Avrom Altman:
From Heather Cox Richardson:
"Today, the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance, based in Stockholm, Sweden, released its 2021 report on “The Global State of Democracy.”
“Democracy is at risk,” the report’s introduction begins. “Its survival is endangered by a perfect storm of threats, both from within and from a rising tide of authoritarianism.” “The world is becoming more authoritarian as nondemocratic regimes become even more brazen in their repression and many democratic governments suffer from backsliding by adopting their tactics of restricting free speech and weakening the rule of law.”
The report identifies the United States as one of the democracies that is “backsliding,” meaning that it has “experienced gradual but significant weakening of Checks on Government and Civil Liberties, such as Freedom of Expression and Freedom of Association and Assembly, over time.”
“The United States, the bastion of global democracy, fell victim to authoritarian tendencies."

SITUATION:
“Biden’s approval rating is in the tank. In April, he had a 52-42 percent approval-disapproval rating; this month it’s 41-53, slightly worse than if those April numbers flipped.”
Biden has delivered just 8% of the funding he campaigned on for climate, infrastructure, health”
“A timeline of Biden’s agenda going from a $7 trillion promise to a $550 billion reality
1In March, Biden announced a $2.25 trillion infrastructure plan. By the end of July, the infrastructure bill had been cut down to $550 billion
2With the infrastructure bill cut down as much as it was, the reconciliation bill would have to compensate. So in total, the reconciliation bill needed to be at least $6.45 trillion in order to fulfull Biden’s $7 trillion plan.
3In August, Biden released the framework for a $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill. The framework housed provisions stripped from the infrastructure bill, like home care health care services and clean energy programs. Of course, the problem was it was still about $3 trillion short of the total number Biden campaigned on.
4By the end of October, the $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill had been pared down to half its original value - $1.75 trillion – taking with it many popular social programs
5In early November, the House passed the $550 billion infrastructure bill.
6By mid-November, neither the House nor the Senate has passed the $1.75 trillion reconciliation bill, and it’s in question whether either chamber ever will.
