No More Big Mean Guy

Have you ever read the comments on Biden's Facebook page?

I'd wager at least half the posts are from people outside the US who don't have any real clue what is going on within our borders. This includes those praising him and those begging him to save their own country.

There are some "true believers", or sheep as some might call them, that actually believe he is saving America. Then there are the rest of us...

  • Those that keep asking for an explanation of how he plans to pay back the trillions of dollars he handing out, disguised as relief, when the bulk isn't going to those that truly need the relief.
  • Those pointing out the bad points to the bills that he is so proud of pushing through.
  • Those trying to wake people up by making them question the things they so blindly believe.

It's sad, really!

When people disagree with my point, I like to take that info and do some more digging to find out what is really going on. Unfortunately, I've never encountered any argumentative Biden supporter that can provide a coherent argument for why they feel he was the best choice. They have decided that the media and the people they voted for couldn't possible lie to them so they believe everything that they are told, which is exactly what the democrats want. Their voting decisions all stemmed from their "orange man bad" mentality and that's all they could see.

The current administration is hurting the economy, hurting people and families. Now, don't get me wrong. That's not all due to Biden. There are far too many career politicians that have been slowing destroying our country for years. The trouble is, they have been exposed, but they are still getting away with it so they have become even more bold in their deceit and lawlessness.

Far too many people have turned a blind eye to the corruption that Trump brought to light during his term. But, because people were brainwashed into thinking he was evil, they refuse to believe that anything he did was a benefit. Too many people can't see the truth once their feelings are hurt by facts.

My Body My Choice: Vaccine Edition

I have no problem with people getting or refusing the covid vaccine. What I do have a problem is those people that feel the need to shame me for choosing not to get the shot.

They told us the vaccine would prevent the spread and save lives. We now know that's not entirely true. Many cases of vaccinated people contracting, and dying from, covid are making headlines. So, please tell me what the point is of getting vaccinated?

If you risk getting covid either way, then I'm not going to allow myself to be injected with an experimental drug, that we know doesn't do what was promised.

So, you can skip the vaccine and run the risk of dying from covid.

or...

You can get the vaccine and still run the risk of dying from covid...plus you could experience side effects from the vaccine.

If you want to keep wearing a mask, social distancing and staying home, you're welcome to do so. But I refuse to be bullied into doing something that doesn't actually do what was promised to just to make you feel better, even though it doesn't seem to make any difference.

I don't judge anyone that chose to get the vaccine but I'm damn sick of people continually trying to shame those of us that made a conscious decision not to get the vaccine based on our own personal situation.

What ever happened to My Body, My Choice?

Unconscious Bias

I read a post today where a lady said she had to check her "unconscious bias" because, when a female friend told her they had a crush on someone, she assumed it was a boy. This happened when they were 12 years old.

Only about 5% of the american population identifies as gay. Let's say many of them are still not out so, even if that percentage is closer to 20%, that's still the minority. Why are we making people feel bad for assuming something that would apply to the majority of the population?

What many people now call bias is simply a matter of folks not having all the pertinent details related to the situation. In the case above, the lady's friend kept telling her to guess what her secret was. When she gave her a clue that it was a crush, she started going through the names of the boys that were in their class or neighborhood. 

Any rational human being's mind would probably go in this same direction. Especially if that friend had NEVER given any indication that they were attracted to women or that they felt they were gay.

Stop assuming that everyone knows what you are thinking and feeling and stop labeling people as biased just because they don't understand what you're trying to tell them.

Biden touts "creation" of 500,000 jobs per month

President Biden posted on facebook that the economy is now adding back 500,000 jobs per month, when it was only adding 60,000 per month under the previous administration. 



Let's look at the possible reasoning behind this, shall we?

Under Trump, and before covid, the economy was doing well. Unemployment was low for most demographics and dependence on the government was also down.

The number of new jobs actually created recently is very low. Most of these jobs are actually ones that were abandoned by workers when they were promised extra unemployment pay due to the pandemic.

Is it a coincidence that people are going back to work now that several Republican governors have ended the extended unemployment pay outs?

Biden & his handlers are famous for skewing the truth and making it sound like they are the ones responsible for anything that gets better after this pandemic. He has his supporters convinced that he is the one responsible for the covid vaccine roll out. In fact, Biden received his first dose before he was even inaugurated so it should be clear that Trump is the one responsible for getting that ball fast tracked and rolling. Biden is just riding that wave and claiming credit for something he had nothing to do with.

The fact that so many people believe these lies is what caused me to lose faith in humanity. At the rate of idiotic comments on the Biden facebook page, it's very possible that he actually did get 8+ million votes before people are complete morons.

Grey's Anatomy got woke?

I have to say, the wokeness of the last couple seasons made me really want to shoot my TV. About half of their cast of doctors are people of color. In a city that is only 7% black. You really want me to believe that these people are discriminated against?

When Maggie told Amelia to check her white privilege, I almost puked. Really, Maggie? You're mixed. You've lived a charmed life with amazing parents. You're a genius that graduated early and is a chief of cardio surgery before the age of 30. You're pretty privileged compared to most people I know.

The Avery's are rich because of the foundation that the old white grandfather started yet they bitched about him all the time. They were free to step away from the family name and make their own way but they rode those riches for their entire lives.

Many others worked hard to get where they are and they fought racial tensions because they are older. But these young folks making 6 figures, buying yachts and fancy sports cars can shut the hell up. Systemic racism is a joke. People need to take responsibility for their own lives and actions. You want something better? Do better. Stop blaming your lack of success on racism.
