The fellow made many points long the way to the main point. Of course, the very first action to taking care of oneself, and by the looks of his eyes he is not engaging in healthy activity, is to grow healthy food.

He is whining as well as the whiners don't you know.

As we watch our civilization unwind, replaced by merchants of hate and nihilism, whining is sometimes a natural and appropriate response.

Remember The Whiners on SNL when it was still good?

Nope. Missed that. I think the last SNL show I watched was when the Stones performed SHATTERED in '78. THE ROLLING STONES (Shattered) (Saturday Night Live) '78

I missed that one but did get to see them live a few decades back. It was a great show in a football stadium. Lots of dead brain cells after that one.

Rick, I was thinking the same about him not looking very healthy! Also, yeah, he is whining, while oddly praising the Supreme Leader of the CCP, ugh.

Aside from him oddly praising the Supreme Leader of the CCP😳 his point about creativity and innovation is good. The problem for me is that true innovation gets stifled by the CONs, as witnessed by both the millions of patents-pending and the patents that are pushed through which of course benefit the already rich. I'm not saying one can't get rich here, I'm just saying that it's more likely if you're already in the club. Wink-wink.

The cool thing is when individuals like you and me create a gadget whatever and we don't worry about trying to make a bazillion dollars from it. If somebody sees it and likes it, we show them how to make their own. Et voilà! The expansion of innovation and creativity! Then maybe that person gives us some tomatoes from their garden as an expression of gratitude. How beautiful: Homegrown tomatoes that we don't have to work a crap job to make the money to buy!🍅

The notion of "uplifting society" is borne of tyrants who demand that *we all pay* for *their* favored innovations which come from their sycophantic puppets. Sure, they created "smart phones" that make some things easier, but these come at a high dollar price and at the cost of damage done to the Natural Order from the insane amounts of dangerous EMFs. (Yes, I'm guilty, I have a smart phone, but at least I keep it in a Faraday bag when I'm not using it, and I don't use it to scroll Faceborg or Instaghoul.)

I didn't really intend to write this three-chapter book but I've been "raining words" lately and the clouds keep coming, haha.
