I'm finding the articles stimulating, as the opinionation makes them fun to read. As a 66-year-old American I want to comment on the assertion that '"No US President in memory has been from the “working class” as Putin is'.

My memory of Reagan places him in my "working class" - financially struggling parents and dysfunctional family, leave home and find a job, another job, and another, get married, have kids, get divorced, etc. Basically, look for opportunities, grab them, lose them, try again.

Reagan was an exceptional "working class" guy in that he was so likable and relatable he was elected Governor and then President. And he was despised by the governing class. So, my kind of guy.

{...almost everything you see written in English is not so much censored but “filtered’ and “cooked” with sauces and additives and lots of salt and sugar and spices...}

Intelect- & perception-DEforming, highly processed stuff so-to-say ...

Keep the good stuff comin' !!! 👍👍👍

Yes i agree with that...

But not only in English...

With words you can cook any desired outcome... you can even find a lot of narratives, that combined will make it certain that you have to go out now and kill your neighbours....

That is why it is so difficult from Word-thinking to find the Truth...

Without naming what i am thinking of:

We see daily, that LIES written in INK can hide TRUTH written in BLOOD, where the Narrative beats Reality.

Look around, Find out and say yes that is true.

So i do NOT think in Words when it is needed.

What is it that i do then ??

Well, words cannot possibly describe it, but in an attempt i would say:

Take a deep breath and dive into your thought world of words, don't look at it and don't look back... swim down and even deeper until you come to an infinite space, where there are no more words and then you get this feeling:

And if you still want to describe it in words, you think this:

You found the Wordless Reality and no LIES can deceive you any more.

Thanks for your thoughtful post !!! Appreciated 👍👍👍

When word-thinking, silence is impossible to find in case you master six languages ...

Often enough, I prefer to think in imagery ... which is less deceiving.

Maybe, it would have been more suitable if homo sapiens were born without a tongue and vocal cords ...

Thanks for the AI imageof the cute girl.

Children, unfortunately are not considered any more an investment into the future, only instant consumerism seems to have any value left.

Thank you Klaus !!

Julian posted my article recently on what i named: 'The Monster'.

In a discussion about the first part of it (I tried to keep it short), i gave the following response:

Maybe you like it.

PS. 'Thinking in Pictures' is a name given by some on thinking in the wordless reality, that some Autistics (like me) found out they did sometimes.

I will be waiting patiently Julian...

SOME WORK OF A TENTACLE OF THE MONSTER CAUGHT IN THE ACT .

WARMONGERING IN THE PENTAGON BROUGHT TO DAYLIGHT :

1. 🇺🇸Daniel-Davis. Highly Recommended. Apr 23. With Lt-Col-Daniel-Davis on 'Redacted':

-P E N T A G O N + H E G S E T H : WHAT'S UP- ⚔️🇺🇸PENTAGON Drama with HEGSETH 🥴

- What's Really Going on at the Pentagon ⁉️ 😳

->https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFx2bejs-BM

Something BIG is happening at 🇺🇸Trump's Pentagon... and it's not good for peace ‼️

Internal Dysfunction:

Fired staff, including Caldwell, deny any wrongdoing and were not even subject to standard procedures (e.g., polygraphs, phone checks), suggesting the firings were political or retaliatory, not evidence-based.

Push for War with Iran:

The firings may reflect a broader push within the administration and among political elites for war with Iran, possibly driven by pro-Israel interests. Dissenting voices were sidelined.

Concerns About Replacement:

There’s speculation that #Hegseth may soon be replaced. Senator Tom Cotton is mentioned as a likely successor—someone strongly pro-Israel and openly supportive of war with Iran. His potential appointment raises fears of escalating conflict.

Cynicism and Skepticism:

Overall, there's deep skepticism about both the motivations behind recent personnel moves and the integrity of the broader policy direction, particularly in relation to Iran and U.S. military decisions.

But just finish the Putin Series. Don't bother the rest for a while...

I'll keep an eye open for you.

My problem is not accessing Google drive had an account as a teacher until 4 yrs ago. It is unzipping files. They, pdf files, used to be automatically unzipped by Adobe. Now you only have 2 products that demand access to your account? More invasion of privacy. So your files sit there zipped on my drive. Read Putin part 1. Interesting how you bend backwards to cleanse him. He is definitely a great and enlightened leader. He was also a KGB operative and they were/are notoriously well trained and unscrupulous in obeying orders. I make no doubt executions were made. More Smiley than 007!

Quietly behind the scenes…is more Putin's style. Absolute Planning is his operative style. Measure 3 times cut once!

Fascinating thank you
