I don’t want to text with your AI chatbot. I don’t want to download the Instagram app to look at your picture. I don’t want to type in my email address to view the content on your company’s website. I don’t want text messages with promo codes. I don’t want to leave your company a five-star Google review in exchange for the chance to win a $20 Starbucks gift card.
I don’t want to join your exclusive community in the metaverse. I don’t want AI to help me write my comments on LinkedIn. I don’t even want to be on LinkedIn in the first place.
I just want to pay for a product one time (and only one time), know that it’s going to work flawlessly, press 0 to speak to an operator if I need help, and otherwise be left alone and treated with some small measure of human dignity, if that’s not too much to ask anymore.”

(For those who haven’t followed this news story, and are interested - I suggest reading “The NSA’s Secret Sex Chats.” The article can be graphic in describing the chat discussions, so you are forewarned.)
True Story:
Between choosing to wear sweatpants in the Oval Office and his prior career, viewing this as a serious person is hard.
For those who are interested, I highly recommend reading the article “Hard truths about the Trump-Zelensky-Vance Oval Office blow-up: The public spectacle doesn't change the fact that the war needs to end soon.” It may be the best analysis of the situation I have read.
The meme wars:
In the meantime, in mass, the cra-cra on Facebook are having a very public meltdown:




And of course, this one:
These memes are being rolled out systematically, with organized “protests” nationwide.
Folks, this is a movement that is being funded from the top. It is organized and has all the hallmarks that the Soros-funded NGOs are driving this synthetic bus.
Last year, Jeffrey Sachs delivered a most crucial history lesson at the European Union.
I stand with the United States and President Trump.
I attended a meeting recently, under Chatham House rules, where I heard a Senator state on stage argue that we need to continue funding wars in the Middle East and around the world to ensure these forever wars happen on their soil rather than ours. Otherwise, foreign countries will invade American soil. He further explained that supporting the economy long-term required funding the military-industrial complex to the tune of billions of dollars (trillions?) for at least another decade.
This Senator didn’t read the room; the dead silence of the audience encapsulated the mood. Conservatives are no longer interested in this strategy of empire-building.
The warmongering Republican Party of old is crumbling. Something new and revolutionary, exemplified by MAGA and developed by the Trump team to drive the American economy, is afoot - and it doesn’t involve perpetual wars on foreign soil.

Over the past 3 years I’ve read hundreds of your essays which has been a great learning experience. I’ve read thousands of posts from hundreds of different people. Some are doctors, some are nurses, pharmacists, engineers, electricians, soldiers, bikers, teachers, even carpenters. Most all are very intelligent, well spoken, good caring people. Many of your essays are about people that stand up, like yourselves, for what is right as we were being pushed by this global tyranny. Many essays have been about people that chose to compromise their reputation for personal gain. It’s so disappointing and honestly dangerous to learn people in powerful positions have chosen personal profit over the safety of others, especially when it comes to children. Most all of us learned right from wrong over time and live our lives trying to do the right thing. Some of us got it from watching our parents and how they made decisions.
I’ve been thinking of the essay you posted about Patrizia Cavazonni. How she was head of the FDA’s Drug Risk Management Board, which makes critical decisions to approve or pull drugs going out for public use. I’ve never heard of this board before, it’s amazing how many layers there are to this bureaucracy. How important Patrizia’s position is. You certainly would want people with the utmost character and integrity in her position and on that board. To think she made the choice to approve these very powerful, life changing drugs, with a horrible track record of adverse reactions for use on children is criminal to me. What little integrity Ms. Cavazonni may have once had, certainly disappeared when she resigned, and conflicted, took the position as Chief Medical Officer at Prizer. Really this should be illegal. Kids and their parents that have been harmed by her decisions should be able to sue her civilly.
A persons reputation is one of the most valuable things we have. A good name is worth far more than great riches. You can be wealthy and people look down on you because you have soiled your good name. When you stay on the high road it will take you much further than being dishonest, deceitful or trying to gain an unfair advantage. Anthony Fauci, Deborah Birx, Rochelle Walensky, Peter Hotez, Bill Gates, George Soros, Klaus Schwab, Patrizia Cavazonni, you see. Look at the way these people portray themselves yet they are all hypocrites.
It doesn’t have to be large sums of money either. We all face temptations everyday. If you are willing to steal a 10 dollar towel from a hotel how can you be trusted with 1,000 dollars, 10,000 dollars or even 100 thousand dollars. No one may see you take the towel but it sets you on a path of mediocrity. They say small foxes ruin the vines. It’s many times the small things that show your character. How you treat people and your family. If you always honor your commitments and try to live a life of integrity in your heart, you are sure to be rewarded. Remember God is always watching. J.Goodrich
