I know where Scott Adams lives, because I used to teach there (Pleasanton, California). Very nice, very wealthy town, the last stop on the eastern leg of the BART rail system.
Pleasanton used to be an almost all-white town, but Asian and Indian tech workers discovered its low crime, high property values, and excellent public school system, so when I taught there, we underwent a demographic shift. Blacks are less than 2% of Pleasanton's population, while Asians and Indians make up 40%, and Hispanics are about 10%. 20 years ago, Pleasanton was 85% white, and now is only 48%, so that's a big change. But the town is still a very nice place to live with a lot of community pride.
I was not raised to be racist and (wait for it) I actually have black friends--and I mean close friends, not acquaintances. I'm sixty years old and the first time I was ever called racist in my entire life was three years ago, after decades of working with colleagues and students of all different races and backgrounds.
There are people who are trying to gain power by stirring up the old hatreds when most of us thought we'd put them behind us. It's very disturbing and I think Adams is overreacting, but he always was a bit of an oddball. And no, I don't believe Scott Adams is a racist.
The incident that caused me to be called racist? I wouldn't let a black woman get ahead of me in the grocery checkout line because I only had a few items and she had an entire cart full. That's not how it works and I explained that to her. She cussed me out in front of everybody, calling me racial slurs (and also surmising I'm a homosexual, because homophobia and racism often go together) and no one spoke up--and that's the problem. We've been taught that being accused of racism makes you automatically guilty, and now the charge of "racism" has been diluted to mean "I didn't get my way".

Facts:
Liberal white women love transgenderism, because transgenderism pushes the same lie as feminism: men and women are interchangeable in every area of life (including sports).
67% of marketing executives like Alissa Heinerscheid are women, which is why we're seeing this huge push of transgenderism and anti-masculine sentiment in advertising.
The only reason this didn't work with Bud Light is because it's a brand primarily marketed to men, and we men aren't having this nonsense. Tampax, Kate Spade, Nike, and Olay have all hired Dylan Mulvaney as their spokesperson and no boycott or general outcry has resulted, because those brands are marketed to women.
Women are going to have to decide: do they want to be erased or not? If they want to erased, then continue embracing transgenderism. If not, then get up of the couch and start boycotting. Boycotting works, and we men just proved that. Do better, women.

And here's more:
http://prospect.org/article/50-million-potential-first-true-silicon-valley-candidate
Excerpt: "Despite his strategic messaging shift, there’s no doubt that Khanna is still the Valley’s golden boy. He has pulled in nearly $3.5 million, with 99 percent of that coming from big donors, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. His top contributors are employed by tech giants like Alphabet Inc., Google’s parent company, as well as Salesforce, Facebook, and Oracle, along with several top tech law firms and venture capital outlets. Meanwhile, most of Honda’s money has come from labor unions and liberal PACs.
After Khanna announced last year that he was challenging Honda again, the incumbent went on the offensive, attacking Khanna for his past support from controversial donors like Thiel, Marc Leder (who hosted Mitt Romney’s infamous “47 percent” fundraiser), and Texas energy investor (formerly of Enron) John Arnold, who poured hundreds of thousands into a supportive super PAC."
By the way, it didn't long for the DNC to co-opt the "Justice Democrats", did it? The ones who were going to "reform the party from within". ALL progressives in the Democratic Party get quickly neutralized or co--opted by the Democratic Party establishment. That's why I'm DONE with the Democrats. I thought Jimmy was, too, but now he's doing a 180 and supporting the Democrats because they've changed!
Yeah, same reason abused spouses go back to their batterers: "He's really changed this time!" Yeah, right.

I commented on some of the more popular videos about the latest mass shooting.
Filled with prayers and statements of how awful people felt.
All I said was that if nothing was done to curb this after Sandy Hook Elementary mass murders in 2012 (20 kindergarteners and 6 adults murdered), nothing would be done now, or ever. That we've decided that this is normal and acceptable: mass murder, prayers for the dead and for the living, expressions of horror, and then...nothing. No action to back up the words, because the NRA puppet politicians don't want that.
The reaction I got from the Second Amendment crowd (the only amendment to the Constitution that matters to them) was over-the-top hysteria.
My message to them: "Relax, you've won. Mass murderers have access to the tools you placed in their hands. The debate is over and your view--which is in the minority--has prevailed. This is the world YOU made. YOU. Every mass murder is by YOUR design. Be proud of YOUR accomplishment, because no other country has successfully convinced its people to accept the periodic murder of ordinary people where they work, shop, worship, or attend school, but this one. And that is YOUR accomplishment."
No, I will not debate anyone now or ever on the merits of gun control. I'm a realist, and the debate is lost. Abbott Elementary isn't the first mass murder in our country and it won't be the last. Nor will it be the biggest. The biggest and bloodiest are yet to come.

I don't agree with Colonel Mac that Biden using nukes is "unthinkable". Three things:
1. Biden won't be making that decision, not really, someone else will;
2. To this "someone else", losing to Russia is unthinkable, not a nuclear exchange;
3. To this "someone else", a nuclear war is winnable because in their mind(s), Putin will surrender as soon as the US uses nukes (he won't, but that's what they think).
A nuclear war, aka mass murder, is not only thinkable but more likely than at any time since the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Oh well, it's been an interesting sixty years.

California will spend about $370 billion on healthcare in 2017. Assuming the state’s existing system stayed intact, the cost of extending coverage to all California residents, including the nearly 15 million people who are currently uninsured or underinsured, would increase healthcare spending by about 10%, to roughly $400 billion.
That’s not the full story, though. Enacting a single-payer system would yield considerable savings overall by lowering administrative costs, controlling the prices of pharmaceuticals and fees for physicians and hospitals, reducing unnecessary treatments and expanding preventive care. We found that Healthy California could ultimately result in savings of about 18%, bringing healthcare spending to about $331 billion, or 8% less than the current $370 billion.
How would California cover this $331-billion bill? For the most part, much the same way it covers healthcare spending right now. Roughly 70% of the state’s current spending is paid for through public programs, including Medicare and MediCal. This funding — totaling about $225 billion — would continue, as is required by law. It would simply flow through Healthy California rather than existing programs.
The state would still need to raise about $106 billion a year to cover the cost of replacing private insurance. This could be done with two new taxes.

Relevant section from Trump's executive order: "I hereby proclaim that the immigrant and nonimmigrant entry into the United States of aliens from countries referred to in section 217(a)(12) of the INA, 8 U.S.C. 1187(a)(12), would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, and I hereby suspend entry into the United States, as immigrants and nonimmigrants, of such persons for 90 days from the date of this order (excluding those foreign nationals traveling on diplomatic visas, North Atlantic Treaty Organization visas, C-2 visas for travel to the United Nations, and G-1, G-2, G-3, and G-4 visas)."
This portion of the order references a law Obama signed naming seven countries in section 217(a)(12) of the INA law. Those seven countries are:
Iran
Iraq
Syria
Sudan
Libya
Yemen
Somalia

I searched my heart and here's my answer: I will vote for anyone I believe will actually deliver on the promise of universal health care, stopping the Drug Wars, fighting against big money in politics and halting our wars of empire around the world. I do not care if that person is female, male, white, black, Asian, Latino, Muslim, atheist, Jewish, Christian...I don't care for "identity" politics at all and even less for tokenism.
I was a bit offended when Clinton claimed we HAD to vote for her because she's a woman and it's time for a female president. We had a black President and the lot of black Americans is worse now than it was when he took office. Obama didn't identify with the color of his own skin, but rather with the social class (the oligarch) that he wants to be part of. The one identification that's important to me is CLASS interest.

By the way, the Nazis broke Virginia state law, but none of them will ever be prosecuted:
§ 18.2-282. Pointing, holding, or brandishing firearm, air or gas operated weapon or object similar in appearance; penalty.
A. It shall be unlawful for any person to point, hold or brandish any firearm or any air or gas operated weapon or any object similar in appearance, whether capable of being fired or not, in such manner as to reasonably induce fear in the mind of another or hold a firearm or any air or gas operated weapon in a public place in such a manner as to reasonably induce fear in the mind of another of being shot or injured. However, this section shall not apply to any person engaged in excusable or justifiable self-defense. Persons violating the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor or, if the violation occurs upon any public, private or religious elementary, middle or high school, including buildings and grounds or upon public property within 1,000 feet of such school property, he shall be guilty of a Class 6 felony.
I saw over 100 violations of that law in the streets of Charlottesville by the white Nazi thugs. NOT ONE DAMNED ARREST.
If BLM activists had those same military assault weapons, you can be damned sure there would have been six different kinds of hell unleashed on them by the cops.
The cops have chosen their side. It's not ours.

1. Our government is entirely co-opted by Big Business. The two have merged. When you speak with the director of FEMA, or the Secretary of the EPA, or the Secretary of Transportation, or the President of the United States, you're speaking to a corporate employee.
2. These chemicals will persist in the water and soil for thousands of years to come. There is no "cleanup".
3. This disaster is just the beginning. Biden, who broke the railroad workers strike, will get away with this, same as Obama got away with ignoring the water crisis in Flint. The railroad will not pay a penny for cleanup and will go about its business as if this never happened. And the next disaster will not be one but many, more and more until this country becomes a hellscape. And no one cares because the people affected are Hillary Clinton's "basket of deplorables".
Our government--our society--is rotten at the top. Big Business and Big Government are run by corrupt, self-serving sociopaths. This train derailment didn't happen on Martha's Vineyard; it wouldn't be allowed. East Palestine? Well, why not poison the town of East Palestine for one thousand generations to come? I'll bet the town doesn't even HAVE a country club.

Somebody wake me up when Jimmy talks about something besides COVID. Important issue, not the only one in the world. Here's why he does it: Jimmy's Youtube show is an advertisement for his standup comedy. He said this himself on a recent show: he does the show to get people to buy tickets to his live shows. He's found that all COVID, all the time, gets lots of views, so that's why he focuses on this issue to the almost total exclusion of everything else.
Jimmy has become a one-issue person and really, this show has become, well, boring. I can't even watch all the way through one of these COVID rants.
Remember The Movement for a People's Party? Jimmy was all for it, but those shows didn't get views, so he dropped it. He's dropped a lot of stuff simply because it didn't attract the biggest audience. Well, I guess Jimmy wants a million subscribers and maybe he'll get them soon, but today, I'm unsubscribing and won't watch his videos again. This channel no longer serves to advance any progressive cause (and Jimmy has banished Graham Elwood and Ron Placone for disagreeing with him on COVID-related issues), just Jimmy's career. Ok, it's his channel, and nobody's forcing any of us to watch. Good luck, y'all.
