Ponder This: Hugo Omar Aghosta


Written By: Hugo Omar Aghosta


This time of chaos opens a door to many opportunities. Truth? Lie? Fake? Real? Love? Hate? Right? Wrong? Humane? Villain? Savior? All are subjective and depend on the perspective of an individual. Genocidal maniacs may believe what they do is for the greater good. Maybe a better measure is "did my actions cause another person misery" or "who profits?" The sociopaths that currently make policy could use a dose of reality. Spend a few nights on the street. Hunker down night after night while bombs fall near enough you feel the ground shake. Though the truth is often obscured by the 24-hr propaganda machine, a couple pesky facts are evident: National infrastructure continues to crumble as we wage wars we can't afford and the sheer amount of misery caused by our government's domestic and foreign policy is staggering. 

Murder and destruction in these "pre-emptive" wars has largely been accepted as necessary for our safety. I'm certain there are policymakers and their mindless TV-programmed proselytites who believe that. Many others seek to line their pockets with the proceeds and the spoils of these endless foreign and domestic wars.
The war on terror is the definition of terror.
The war on drugs has created the largest incarcerated non-violent population on earth.
These wars have tremendous casualties.

It's a war on families
Against children
Against women
Against men
Against the poor
Against the helpless
Against the lower classes
By definition, it IS class warfare. 

Perspective. Everyone could use some. A few days spent in the shoes of a mother trying to protect and feed her children amidst the sound of bombing, living in rubble. Perhaps a week or so without sleep, a roof, a car, money, sufficient food, restrooms or climate control in one of our inner cities should be a rite of passage for elected officials. Or let 'em do 2 weeks in the rubble abroad, adopt a family we're trying to "save."

Naturally this isn't going to happen. So those of us who can will continue to broadcast the real villians of society; our policymakers and their corporate pimps.
Expose. Share. Leak. Encourage others.

Cause no harm? From where i sit, this IS my perspective regarding "the greater good."
One heart, one people, one race, human...

**Age of Hypocrisy**: The Real War on Women

Image
Written By: ~X~ of TFD The "War on Women" is a phrase that has been slung around and misused inaccurately as much as the " W ar on Drugs". Both of these "wars" have been (in my opinion) been blow n out of proportion, misrepresented , misunderstood and abused to the fullest by pundits, journalist, wanna-be reporters and colum nist, depending on what side of the isle they are on. Let me explain.... This "war" has gone to far and if it is not put int o perspective , we can loose a lot more th an a few seats in the House. First, women HAVE been through a lot throughout history . We here HONOR women , you can make life. Your n urturing nature, wisdom, st re n gth, wisdom, companionship, leadership, etc is needed in order for life to be in ba lance. The very miracle of creating LIFE is a marvel in its self. Now ...

Dear Brothers & Sisters By: Puck Arks

 Dear Brothers & Sisters    Written By: Puck Arks of TFD M y dear brothers and sisters—yes, we are all brothers and sisters, I have love in my heart for all people, while we may disagree, but even more so may we agree that some people cross the line, more often than not, or even rarely because in truth we all do it. M y friends, Collectively speaking, conflict is not necessarily bad or destructive.  E ven when conflict causes a great deal of stress or fr frustration we must remember why we are here. S ometimes we disturb the peace by trying to defend ourselves or prove a point. I t helps to remember that someone else's perception has no real power over who we are, so there is no actual threat. W hen others hold strong opinions, you still can hold your own without disturbing the balance. W e need to seek common ground rather than notice our differences. See things from another perspective so that you can understand that person within...
