Boiling Cauldron

After I finished my last post I said to myself: I hope I’ll have more uplifting things to share next time. However, here we are and Uplifting is Not Happening as it seems to be getting Worse and Worser! I don’t really know what to make of it all? Does Anyone? It’s almost unbelievable! It’s like living a Nightmare that keeps on repeating itself ad infinitum! Yes, it’s a Boiling Cauldron Alright! It’s boiling in more and more places across our Planet! What the hell is going on?

Only recently Humans have been Protesting and Rebelling in Indonesia, Nepal, France, London, US, Congo, Georgia and more! I can’t keep up! For some of them it is about Corruption, Inequality, Housing Affordability and just the inability to Eke out a Decent Living; for others it is Authoritarianism, Inept and Spineless Politicians, Unwise Decisions and the list goes on! It also seems as if the Malfeasance at the Top is Seeping Down and Tainting Everything Along Its Undulating Way as Humans become more Polarized, Agitated, Depressed and Angry! Just in recent days, and I know that all of you reading this post are very well aware of all that I am saying, nevertheless, here’s a recap of events that struck me as ominous:

Russian Drones flying over Poland. Seriously now??!! An International Flotilla on its way to Gaza (again!) and Israeli Drones are hitting the boats carrying life-saving aid? The newly named US Department Of War targets and blows up a Venezuelan boat and executes its passengers in International Waters claiming without proof that it was bringing drugs into the US?! A blatant Israeli attack on Doha, Qatar killing and wounding Humans and other Israeli attacks on Yemen?! It is beyond belief that both Israel and the US have given themselves license to threaten, sanction, attack, assassinate Anyone, Anywhere they desire – and not that this is New, because it has been happening for as long as I can remember, although it has become much more audacious and in-your-face than ever before!! How is this even Acceptable? And how does that not give license to any other Nations, or Leaders deciding to do the same? Bewildering and So Very Dangerous! A Genocide and an Annihilation Campaign of Starvation continuing in Gaza, while Settler Atrocities supported by Israeli Military continue in the West Bank of Palestine?! Until When? Another School Shooting in Colorado amongst the frequently occurring shootings in this US of A?! Immigrants and Undocumented Humans being shuttled to other countries where they will be jailed and perhaps tortured? An Evil Political Assassination in Utah killing Charlie Kirk, 31 years old, a husband and father! Irrelevant of his ideology, this, like other assassinations that have occurred during the past year alone involving Humans from both our political parties is Uncivilized, Barbaric and Preposterous! Cyber Crimes multiplying and going totally Wild and More Criminal, let alone Strange Weather Behavior uprooting thousands! RFK, Jr ruling over our Health and issuing the most dangerous and idiotic diktats ever imagined! How will we cope with a Pandemic should one happen with this whacko brainiac in control of our health decisions??? The Epstein Scandal that is not going away and will yet reveal so many more prominent names of Politicians, Bankers and Who Knows What More Scandalous and Salacious stuff, while the Courageous Victims held a conference at the Capitol indicating that they are not going to go away despite Trump ordering his military jets to fly over them in a show of Force and Intimidation?! Come on now! That’s so Infantile, Petty and Vindictive!! An Idiotic, Misinformed Politician (can’t even remember his name, not that I want to either!) telling his Town hall attendees that there are 750,000 Americans living in Israel and that’s why we need to keep on starving and bombing the hell out of the Innocent Palestinian Humans. Because they are all Terrorists?! Seriously? He does not know, or realize that the mentioned Americans are Mostly, if Not All, American Jews with a Dual Citizenship! Hello Ignorance? Authoritarian Bolsonaro receives a jail sentence for fomenting an Insurrection in Brazil and our US President – who attempted to do the same in 2020 – decides to Meddle in the affairs of a Sovereign Nation with Sanctions, Threats and Demands For Retribution! Really? That’s Appalling!

All this is only recently! What the fuck is going on? How much More Ignorance and Irresponsibility can we live with? In her terrific Book: Libertarianism: The Case Against Extreme Wealth, published in 2024, Ingrid Robyns (amongst many others) warns Humanity that if the Serious Issues of Inequality are not addressed, especially by all the Oligarchs, Billionaires, Leaders and Dictators then the Pitchforks are coming! She might just be right, and that’s scary and dangerous for every one of us!

And, are we really, as some are saying, on our way to All Out World War? Or, an American Civil War? And is the assassination of Charlie Kirk the incident that could spark such a war as some are saying? And is what Trump is spewing – by design, or inadvertently – an invitation to all those who believe in Kirk’s Message that they are the modern day Crusaders (White Christian Supremacists) who should be fighting against Humans who are Black, Brown, Purple, Muslims, Jews, Immigrants, the Homeless and goodness knows who else? Moreover, was Charlie Kirk’s Widow also stoking the fires with her fiery words? If we have Responsible Leaders and Politicians such as the very judicious and responsible Spencer Cox, Governor of Utah, they would be doing their darnedest to choose a path of Wisdom and Reason at this specific time especially and avert this country a catastrophe. And how Embarrassing would it be that the Downfall of this Nation would be brought about by its own citizens? Horrific! Mortifying!

As for all those Arab Leaders: I just want to ask them how much more Humiliation will they take? How much harder can the US and Israel Mop The Floor with them? When will they say: Enough is Enough? They are Shameless and Spineless Cowards!

We are not going to a good place my friends. In fact, we are moving towards more and more evil and darkness. Yes, the Planet is a Boiling Cauldron and I don’t know if there is a Willingness to turn the temperature down! Fasten your seat belts!
