politics
Politics does not dictate our collective cultural mindset as much as it simply reflects it; We've got to look in the mirror sometimes, and we've got one.
Dissolving Evil Empire:
The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the USSR, was actually just a euphemism for "Russia" in a delusional attempt at self-justification because, to my knowledge, not one of the countries making up this so-called “Union” joined willingly. Enormous threats, purges, incarcerations, torture, deportations, & genocides were employed to bring everyone into this bogus "Union."

The Politics of "Us VS Them"
A cult of the leader; promising national restoriation in the face of alleged disgrace. If this were an episode of Jeopardy the correct response to this phrase would be "What is Fascism?". In the eyes of the fascist leader, the so-called "disgrace" comes from the political & social outsiders (immigrants, leftists, minorities, women, LGBTQ+, etc.) & they carry out their agendas by means of a hypothetical takeover of a country's media, schools, and cultural instituions. The fascist leader decietfully peddles the necessity of a masculine, charismatic, powerful, and sometimes a very violent response; saying that he will be the ultimate solution. Fascism by it's very nature is right-winged, and rooted in the concepts of ultra-nationalism. Though, it must be made very clear that ultra-nationalism isn't exclusively right-winged. There are a pletora of ultra-nationalist movements of minority groups. There is such a thing as left-winged authroitarianism, as seen with the countrys and governments ruled by such terrible figures like Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Josip Tito, Pol Pot, and the Kim family; who (combining the numbers together) killed people in the tens of millions. There are bad things on the Left. However, not all these terrible things mentioned are fascist. It's a very specific ideological sysytem, and when thinking about it, it must the thought about in it's entirety; never in these particular & seperate parts, here or there. They come as a collective. Dare I say a "ten piece body". By the time we're done here, we will examine each of these pieces to gain a better understanding of the anatomy of fascism. How this extreme system works to only ruin society under the guise of repair.

8 AOC News Stories that are neither Sweaters nor Checkmarks
8 seems to be the magic number this week on Twitter - 8, blue check marks, and fanboys rallying for the new troll king. Every content creator had a dig at the new CEO, but for followers of AOC, there were an unfortunate number of sweaters. So many goddamned sweaters.

Its success has been cited by the likes of The New York Times, framing their piece as the story of "How Immigrant Twin Brothers Are Beating Trump's Team on Facebook."

Russia's Propaganda Attacks Americans With Nonsense Advert
Russia has created an advert to deter or just make fun of America, who knows? Everyone knows nothing comes out of Russia in the media without Putin’s stamp of approval. Either way the ad was disgusting and the Black American they labeled as African-American had an African accent. More than likely living in Russia I find it ironic as several Africans admire Putin and Russia. Many African citizens applaud Putin and Russia yet immigrate to America and the United Kingdom instead of Russia.

If You Ever Heard of the Bacon Rebellion, You Might Fully Support the Infrastructure Bill Rather than Republican Billionaires
Photo by herval Wait a minute, I’m a person of low, middle or upper middle class means, and I don't support the infrastructure because I don’t know what the Bacon Rebellion is. Well, that’s admittedly a stretch. But a little knowledge would might get you to reconsider things. You certainly know the rich will do anything to hold onto every last sliver of wealth and privilege. So why do you believe their party line - rising their boats will do the same for yours. Thus, the infrastructure bill must go. Ok, let the history lesson begin.

Bourgnew's Leveled Mindness Leadership
The government can feel out of place when their leaders are not leveled minded. The government can feel on the verge of a breakdown crisis. Inquities raising warnings by instablizing the community. Democracy becomes unclear and not present and on the verge of falling apart. It is these times that we must choose a new way of governance. We must choose a new way of fixing the present problems. We must decide together to not stop the progress that democracy has done for hundreds of years. Leveled minded is coming together in spite of differences to administer justice. Leveled minded is making justified legislation that builds up the general public. Leveled minded is avaling justice over money. Money blinds politics when in excess. Money must be a byproduct of geninue ideas. Money must be an agent of change. Money cannot be used as a power card. If money cannot be regulated then it steals the lifeblood from justice. Governance must be more than the economy. Economic means comes second to civility. Economic means are important for the health of a government in perspective. We cannot count citizens unimportant because of their place in society. We must choose to bring everybody at the table. Governance is about uplifting precedents and including everyone in order to secure a safe, productive future for the country. We must be careful not to be led by money. Equity is more important than cashflow. Equity means longevity. Equity means happiness. And happiness has an unmeasurable results, it guarantees loyalty, hardwork, and trust. Loyalty has to be earned by good works and representation. Hardwork must be rewarded for hope and credit in the government. Trust strengthens the government's ability to do its job. Leveled mindedness leadership is knowing your strengths and weaknesses and observing the needs of the people. Your strengths will come to play when necessary, leveled mindness isn't about being overproductive and obstinate. Your weaknesses can be useful and encourage you to find the talent and intuitive to lead the challenge that the nation faces. Its putting into play how to administer justice without neglecting anyone, without leaving anybody behind. Modern Democracy must be leveled mindedness. Democracy is a type of government that is progressive, that is moving, that is like no other type of government demanding self-sufficiency. Democracy is constantly evolving, constantly changing, and constantly repairing. Democracy is open mindedness which is good and bad because some ideas are too extreme for democracy. Democracy needs leveled mindedness to diligently and urgently solve problems and prevent conflicts. Governance isn't about confidence and power alone but also the very capabiltiies of the government to build and establish relations with its people and maintain fairness in the process. History repeats and distorts the path of democracy. Leveled mindness in democracy is like a lens from the microscope for history. Every detail is important. We must take time, due diligence, and proper understanding to avail the importance and meaning of historic events to preserve the leveled mindness leadership. The lies of history haunts democracy and they prevent justice. We must be true with blatant evidence and structured procedures to form educated opinions and move forward in a manner justified by the Supreme Laws of the Land. Failure to do so will set a terrible precedent. Leveled mindedness is key to sustaining governance and edifying justice. Leveled mindedness does not depend on one person, it is a collective effort that the people must wholely support. And it cannot be sympathizing, it must be public opinion to prevent an internal war and internal conflict. Leveled mindedness leadership moves the country with clear direction and muster up public support with unshakable evidence and immovable roots in the justified procedures of the law.
