Gay Wedding Cakes and Civil Unions.

The battle wages on regarding whether or not a cake maker can be forced to make a wedding cake depicting a gay couple. In this latest round, the cake maker won the right to deny service to a gay couple.

History seems to have forgotten the rapidly growing popularity of civil unions before gay marriages became legal. The irony of groups of people who did not want to be scorned or denied their right to be legally recognized as a couple because of their sexual preferences also demanding to be just like those they viewed as close minded and prejudiced seemed to be lost on everyone, yes, everyone, but me.

Paraphrasing..."I can't stand your rigid, judgemental, prejudiced ways....but I want to be just like you when it comes to marriage". It's such an oxymoronic position it defies logic.

Another oxymoronic position is the steadfast belief that a gay marriage is identical to a heterosexual marriage in which the couple can conceive children. The two are not the same. The reality of a fertile heterosexual marriage is the couple has to remain vigilant at all times regarding when and how many kids they plan on bringing into the world. Fertile heterosexual marriages actually have to alter their sexual practices routines. Do gay marriages ever alter their sexual practices out of fear of having an unplanned pregnancy?

So there is a distinct wedge between what a fertile heterosexual and a gay marriage is. The gay movement's demand that they be allowed to have the exact same term applied to their unions was from my point of view, embarrassing and sad.

What might have happened if the gay movement had stayed the course and popularized civil unions while also fighting for the right to have all the same government related benefits that a conventional marriage is given? 

I think a civil union alliance comprised of non-fertile heterosexual couples, couples with different religious beliefs, civil rights advocates,  progressive minded heterosexual couples, gay couples, bi-sexual couples would have combined to create a civil union majority in which perhaps 60% to 70% of all unions would be civil unions and only 30% to 40% would prefer to have a conventional marriage.

Pioneers do not follow a path already taken, they make their own, and when it came to forging a path for civil unions to become the dominant form of recognized coupling, the ball was dropped.

On a personal level, were I to ever marry someone of a different religion, or if we could not conceive a child, I would be quite fine with having a civil union instead, as long as all the same government rights were granted.

As it stands now, the perpetual battle between gay marriages and cake makers wages on, creating perpetual hostility and anger that is all so unnecessary.

I guess I should be grateful that Google hasn't shut down my blog for some made up reason, but these new article stats are almost just as bad.

When I wrote my previous article about the Los Angeles City Council hidden audio recordings, I decided to post it on various sites of mine on the web. Over the first couple of hours I had over 170 views and I ended up around 217 views over the first 24 hours. Usually when an article gets a higher hit count early on that tends to create a modest influx of hits over the next few weeks. 

However, since that first day and the 217 views,  the article about LA City Council has gotten NINE views total over the next 3 days. That is laughably low. Remember, out of the first 170 hits, I created those by posting a link on other sites of mine and they eventually created around 217 hits for the first 24 hours. In other words, Google literally provided ZERO VIEWS to my site.

Twice in the past year or two I have suddenly gotten hundreds of views for a spoof article I wrote 10 years ago about Arianna Huffington. After each visit by a few hundred visitors to the Huffington article, my daily total blog views suddenly dropped in half and stayed that way. The first time Huffington Bots arrived I was averaging around 250 to 300 views a day. Overnight my views were down to around 125. 

About a year later, the Huffington bots arrived again and now I average around 80 hits a day.

Study the stat hits below for my Los Angeles City Council article, it is basically impossible to have this kind of a stat flow for an article unless the views are being blocked by some outside, or, inside Google source.

Los Angeles City Council Redistricting Committee Engages in a Population Insurrection.

The recent discovery and publicizing of secretly made recordings over the Los Angeles City Council Redistricting committee's prejudiced and racialized comments have created such backlash that the underbelly may never be investigated.

What we apparently have in Los Angeles is a population insurrection. 

The use of population by Los Angeles City Council Politicians to demand more political power suddenly makes the drive to keep the borders porous collateral serious issue.

But the discussion will never go towards this being a Population Insurrection in which the same Politicians who demanded porous borders with Mexico are the same Politicians who verbally attacked those who wanted a Wall and portrayed those who wanted a wall as being prejudiced and racist. 

The underbelly of using ethnic population numbers to demand more political power while also enforcing a porous border is worthy of an insurrection investigation.  

Ironically, the drop in percentage of African Americans in the city of Los Angeles over the past few decades is related to the porous border with Mexico as most people being let in are generally considered to be of Hispanic origin. 

So, when the three Politicians can be heard on tape bemoaning that they only have 33% Latino representation when Latinos make up 52% of Los Angeles, the issue of a Population insurrection takes on new meaning. 

Los Angeles City Council Politicians who view their constituents as being nothing more than ethnic population numbers and percentages so they can extract more political power, while still greasing the wheels for MORE to enter California through California borders, is a far greater insurrection than what occurred on January 6th.

The Atlantic Monthly obtusely gives over half a dozen reasons why the U.S. should build the wall without even realizing it.

This article in the Atlantic goes on and on about COVID and all the ways the U.S. is deficient when it comes to pandemic preparedness. Ironically, all the reasons the Atlantic gives can all be used to justify building Trump's Wall.

Progressive Obtuseness at its finest.

One other thing to consider, the 2017-2018 flu/pneumonia season had senior death numbers adjusted downward from 80,000 to 60,000, AFTER coroners were told in early January of 2018 to not list Senior Flu Deaths on the Senior's death certificate. Instead of death by flu or pneumonia, deaths to Seniors were to be listed as death by Natural Causes, Heart Failure, or Respiratory Failure. 

The result was an instant drop in Flu deaths spanning the final 3 weeks of January 2018 and going all the way through April of 2018. Clearly, if all Senior flu / pneumonia deaths had been properly recorded for the 2017-2018 flu/pneumonia seasons, the total would most likely have been 100,000 to 125,000. Which interestingly enough is where COVID has now nestled into on a yearly basis.

How Putin can end his war with Ukraine with his pride intact, ask Donald Trump to intervene as a Peace Broker in the Russia / Ukraine conflict.

If Vladimir Putin wants to end his war in Ukraine, he should have Donald Trump broker a peace deal. If Trump can pull off a Russia / Ukraine peace accord, Putin can take satisfaction knowing he will cause massive discord in the U.S. between the Mainstream Media, the Democrat Progressives with the American People by having Trump prevent World War III.

Sheila Kuehl Obstructing Sheriff Alex Villanueva's desire to Police LA Metro Rail may be the underbelly that leads to criminal charges against Kuehl.

Sheila Kuehl really stepped in it, and the local media does not know what to do with the biggest story of 2022 regarding L.A. Crony, Insider Politics.

Kuehl was able to win no bid contracts for a friend that was supposed to assist those who were assaulted on the LA rail system, through a phone hot line service.

However, while Kuehl was creating the questionable business model of bidding just below the no bid contract threshold, Kuehl was also preventing L.A. Sheriff's division from policing the L.A. rail system.

But it's even worse than that, much much worse. Kuehl and her friends on the LA County Supervisor's board, plotted, threatened, and avowed to remove Head Sheriff Alex Villanueva without any type of public vote or initiative.

Respecting women in politics requires calling a woman out when she likely broke the law and used her political position of power to do so. Sheila Kuehl's role in finding no bid contract awards totaling approximately $800,000 for her best friend's non-profit hot line for rail system assault victims resulted in a cost per legitimate phone call that may have run into the thousands of dollars per phone call.

Shiela Kuehl believes she did nothing wrong, illegal, or to personally enrich her friend at the taxpayer's expense and safety. Kuehl allegedly participated in a scheme to...

• create a method for reporting rail system assaults that already existed in other forms, 
• use her insider knowledge and skills so her friend could win no bid contracts, 
• prevent Alex Villanueva and his Sheriffs from policing the Metro Rail System because of an alleged toxic relationship between law enforcement and law violators using the metro rail system.  
• unilaterally collude to remove Alex Villanueva from power through a Board of Supervisors vote who apparently were in favor 4-1 to remove Mr. Villanueva without the public voting on the matter.
  

The criminality and insider dealing appears palpable and should include the four Board of Supervisors who approved of a plan to have Mr. Villanueva removed from office without a public vote in what remarkably looks as a way to keep Kuehl's Friend's Metro Rail phone hotline gig eligible to continue to win no bid contracts.

District Attorney Gascon immediately denounced the criminal investigation as being specious. Gascon's public comments can be viewed as obstruction of an ongoing investigation that appears to place Ms. Kuehl center stage to the worst kind of cronyism that most likely endangered the public while also enriching one of Ms. Kuehl's friend.

Karen Bass, what do you say about the matter?

The Media screamed when Trump went "Digging for Dirt" in Ukraine regarding Joe Biden's son. That same media cheers Biden's digging for dirt on Donald Trump.

Imagine Obstructing a sitting President from doing a deep dive into the possible illegal activities of his Political Rival's son as being illegal and therefore worthy of that President's Impeachment. Some might consider that an insurrection, no?

Imagine ripping up a copy of the President's State of the Union Address, in full view of cameras, many would consider that an act of sedition.

Now imagine the successful obstruction of additional evidence, that was LEGALLY OBTAINED weeks before the 2020 Election, helps bring about the defeat of the standing President, some might consider that a second insurrection, no?

Now imagine the former President being deeper dived than the person he was accused of digging for dirt, by that same person? Seems like a third cause of action for an insurrection against those who obstructed Donald Trump over the past several years.

Gavin Newsom just broke the law of common sense when it comes to mandating 33% of all new cars sold be EV in California by 2026.

When Legislation gets passed that basically says you will consume what we want you to consume, it is imperative that the Government not be engaging in the game of attrition called Jenga.

What is ultimately cruel about the game of Jenga is there is a physical limitation as to how many sections of a pieced together standing structure that can be removed before the entire structure, collapses.

Jenga, meet Gavin Newsom, Gavin Newsom, meet Jenga. 

 Before ANY EV edicts can be legislated, comparative analysis needs to be done in which the use of rare earth resources are quantitatively compared between different types of uses.

For instance, if the identical amount of lithium and other rare earth resources required for each 50,000 dollar EV car could also be used to create 500,000 dollars worth of I-watches, or 1 million dollar's worth of HD televisions, or 10 million dollars worth of memory cards, then it suddenly becomes both misguided and possibly illegal to demand that EV's suddenly become a mandated top priority.

So, where is the rare earth equivalency list that Mr. Newsom apparently forgot to consult when coming up with his EV mandate. And, where is the gasoline mandate that cars using gasoline become less of an alleged climate change issue when a new gas consuming car gets at least a certain amount of miles per gallon?

So many questions, too little mind.

How the FED stole 8 trillion in Homeowner Equity and pocketed the Money.

A home that used to sell for 1 million dollars may soon sell for $800,000. 

But, the monthly mortgage payment will not be any less than it would have been before the drop in price because the FED has raised interest rate charges.

The Fed using existing and plentiful Homeowner Equity to back new mortgages while giving these Equity Rich homeowners some residual income every month is a win for all homeowners. 

Instead of rewarding Homeowners with significant home equity, the FED just stole 8 trillion dollars of Homeowner Equity that had accrued over the past few years, equity that could have been used to both back new mortgages and provide homeowners who have ample equity a way to create a modest amount of annual residual income.

It appears The FED has narcissism issues in which they refuse to consider Equity Rich Homeowners and their trillions in equity as a way to both back new mortgages and as an economy stabilizing option.

Further injurious to existing Homeowners, Home Sellers, and Home Buyers. The lower home prices, while not benefiting Homeowners, Home Sellers, or Home Buyers will benefit both the FED and Hedge Funds that do not require FED money to buy a home and have been set up to purchase homes and convert them into rentals.

Techno Fascism, the Real Menace of present day society.

My LinkedIn account has been doxxed. Turns out I was "warned" back in May of 2022 about content related to 2000 Mules that I had posted, and to not do it again. If only I had been warned! Linkedin's finest had first removed my content, then warned me. So when I went to see what LinkedIn had removed, it was no longer visible. 

I opened up a complaint with LinkedIn. My request was, "Can I see, see what you deemed offensive so I don't post something like it again". I went back and forth a few times with a LinkedIn representative who danced around the issue of my being able to see what had already been removed. Instead, the LinkedIn representative justified the blatant mistake the technology side of LinkedIn had made by claiming the content was so dangerous it could not exist in any form. But what was "it" that had been removed? I had no idea, and apparently neither did the rep since they were unable to show or tell me what LinkedIn had removed.

Fast forward 3 months and suddenly my account has been "restricted".  After a four day wait a customer service rep contacted me and presented three items related to 2000 Mules from 75 to 90 days earlier and that I must promise to never post fake news again before I would be reinstated.

As you can see in the image above, I now have 118 notifications I cannot view. Stranger still, my connections who happen to want to either message me or read my latest content, will not have access to anything I have ever done on LinkedIn, and may mistakenly assume I blocked them.

I replied to Linkedin's claim about my prior 3 violations that I had no idea about my prior violations and that it was unfair to suddenly say I had three violations when I never got the prior ones. And here is where Techno Fascism again rears its bass ackwards bullying.  Having first wiped clean my first two violations in such a manner that I could never see them, LinkedIn deemed those first two violations my warnings, warnings with no way to view what the content was that had been removed!

So when LinkedIn Techno Fascist software found a third violation, I was deemed me to be non compliant and I would have to admit to violating their agreement terms and that I would not do it again. Of course, I cannot do that. I cannot agree to self libel and self slander my own reputation when I was never given an opportunity to see the first or second posts they did not approve of.

Imagine a stop sign has been knocked down in your local community and is no longer visible in any way shape or form, but a camera continues to monitor who does not stop. Would it be fair to assess several dozen did not stop tickets all at once when there was no sign present? Of course not. The person would need to be warned that although there is no stop sign, one must stop anyways. And that is all I ever asked for. Let me see what it is you deem a violation or I may end up doing it again and again because I have no idea what it was that was deemed a violation.

For the naysayers who are thinking, you must have known and are playing coy, I can 100% say I absolutely did not know which post of mine had been removed for a variety of reasons. I post numerous things every day, and the original warnings did not state a time or date stamp, but even if they had, I still would not know what post I had made without actually seeing it. 

LinkedIn also has a method where one can see what post might have been reported as objectionable, and a member can ask for a second opinion. But in these specific instances there was no way to view the posts because they had been permanently removed prior to my getting a warning, and therefore having no way to review the removed content.

Fortunately for me, I managed to stumble across my May 2022 LinkedIn complaint where I made it abundantly clear that I would like to learn what content I had posted that was considered a violation. I have now submitted that trouble ticket and am hopeful that the representative handling my case will see that I made a very legitimate effort to see what it was I had posted that was deemed a violation so I could learn and not do it again.

But, because this is techno fascism, the next issue I may be up against is the customer service representative not having the option to remove my second and third violations until I admit I did wrong, when I obviously had no idea since I was not allowed to see either my first or second violation.

The timing of this doxxing by LinkedIn may have had unfortunate consequences for me as I was working on multiple projects at the same time. And yet, I refuse to bow down to techno fascism, and you should to. Don't just assume you have no rights, make sure you always file a complaint when something happens that makes no sense, and hopefully a real live human will have the authority to over ride the latest brand of techno fascism that reminds me a lot of how truly authoritarian Governments around the world control their people.
