Imagi / Nation.....

All things larger than life are

Self consuming.

A resource in abundance....

Incompetency is more favorably 

Biased towards criminality....and

Criminality ...(Like incompetence)

Like weed and sea water

Is in abundance.....

Among humans.

Quote of the day.....

Conscience warns us 

before it reproaches us.

Trappings...

Ritual is......

The most primordial order of 

Human species.

Justice...

The only thing worth guarding. 

Quote of the day....

Integrity has no need of rules.

-- Albert Camus
(1913-1960) French Algerian author

Reflections.../Living healthy....

Even in the face of ensuing conflict

Start the day with a good intention.

A realization is to be free of the old garb.../ The art of Living......

Even revolution, which transforms 

a concrete situation of oppression by 

establishing the process of liberation, 

must confront thus phenomenon. 

Many of the oppressed..... 

who directly or indirectly 

participate in revolution intend — 

conditioned by the myths of the old order — 

to make it their private revolution. 

The shadow of their former oppressor is 

still cast over them. 

---Paulo Freire. 
Pedagogy of the Oppressed. 

Waiting for Godot...

There is no preparation or 

Training of people...... 

For absurdity.

Quote of the day.....

True generosity consists precisely 

in fighting to destroy 

the causes which nourish false charity. 

False charity constrains 

the fearful and subdued, 

the “rejects of life” to extend 

their trembling hands. 

True generosity lies in striving 

so that these hands — 

whether of individuals or entire peoples — 

need be extended less and less in supplication, 

so that more and more 

they become human hands 

which work and, working, 

transform the world.

--- Paulo Freire.
Pedagogy of the oppressed.

Quote of the day...

Falsehood of the tongue leads to 

that of the heart, and in time depraves 

all its good dispositions.

---Thomas Jefferson.(1743-1826) 

US Founding Father, 3rd US President.
Drafted the Declaration of Independence.

Chapter 1

Indeed, the interests of the oppressors lie in 

'changing the consciousness of the oppressed, 

not the situation which oppresses them.

-- Paulo Freire.
Pedagogy of the oppressed. 

Quote of the day.....

If you make people think they're thinking, 

they'll love you; 

But if you really make them think, 

they'll hate you.

― Don Marquis.

Quote of the day...

The courts are not bound by mere forms, 

nor are they to be misled by mere pretenses. 

They are at liberty — 

indeed, are under a solemn duty — 

to look at the substance of things, 

whenever they enter upon the inquiry 

whether the legislature has transcended 

the limits of its authority. 

If therefore, a statute 

purporting to have been enacted 

to protect the public health, 

the public morals, or the public safety, 

has no real or substantial relation 

to those objects, or 

is a palpable invasion of rights secured by 

the fundamental law, 

it is the duty of the courts to so adjudge, and 

thereby give effect to the Constitution.

-- Mugler v. Kansas

The sheep....and the shepherd...

The fact that in any given condition

The people are left with no choice 

Other than to trust their rulers is

What makes.....

The irresponsibility of those 

Who choose to Rule....

An irreconcilable sin.

Extreme rendition and torture-by-proxy.....

Although he initially tried to assert his innocence, 

he eventually confessed to anything 

his tormentors wanted him to say. 

“You just give up, he said. 

“You become like an animal.”

---Maher Arar.

A Canadian engineer sent Syria.
A year later, in October, 2003, 
Arar was released without charges. … 
Imad Moustapha, the Syrian Ambassador 

in Washington, announced 

that his country had found no links between 
Arar and terrorism. Arar, it turned out, 
had been sent to Syria on orders from 

the U.S. government, under a secretive 

program known as “extraordinary rendition.” 
This program had been devised as 

a means of extraditing terrorism suspects 

from one foreign state to another for 
interrogation and prosecution. 
Critics contend that the unstated purpose of 
such renditions is to subject the suspects to 
aggressive methods of persuasion 
that are illegal in America—including torture.

The Stanford Experiment.........

In dehumanizing others..........

We can not expect to hold them

To any known standards.

         *         *        *        *         *

Dehumanization, 

although a concrete historical fact,

is not a given destiny but 

the result of an unjust order 

that engenders violence in the oppressors, 

which in turn dehumanizes the oppressed.

---Paulo Freire.

Quote of the day...

What important truth do..... 

very few people agree with you on?

― Peter Thiel.

To be parasiting and para sitting.....The story of the hand that feeds...

Since the dawn of human civilizations

Agriculture labor is the most exploited 

Human resource that is still at 

The bottom of food chain.

Quote of the day.....

[I]t is a truth which the experience of 

all ages has attested, that the people are 

always most  in danger, when 

the means of injuring their rights are 

in the possession of those of whom 

they entertain the least suspicion.

-- Alexander Hamilton(1757-1804)
