Plead Out Loud: April 2025. No one person has "all the answers", including me. What is CLEAR is that people are listening to the WRONG leaders. Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk, Donald Trump are horrible choices

Manhattan's Neil Postman was correct in his 1985 book, we are flocking to all the wrong sources for information and learning... and understanding.

"Let It be Known" - April 2025

There was nothing preventing everyday people, citizens of the nation, even those too young to vote... from using social media systems to organize a manifesto or schema of ideas and propose "Jon Doe's Ideas for USA society version 0.1".

Michael Moore I feel went above and beyond Sicko is a 2007 American political documentary film by filmmaker Michael Moore. Investigating health care in the United States, the film focuses on the country's health insurance and the pharmaceutical industry. Moore compares the for-profit non-universal U.S. system with the non-profit universal health care systems of Canada, the United Kingdom, France and Cuba. Produced on a roughly $9 million budget and is the kind of fat loud-mouth American that we could have promoted and taken more seriously than the kind of fat loud-moth American "Donald Trump" values. Michael Moore even was a good capitalist and profited off that film. Also noteworthy, that only a few years after that film a significant book was released in 2010 by less comedy-oriented academics, a law professor. The title of that book was briefly famous in December 2024 by a Reddit user who could not get his society manifesto to the front page of social media systems without dramatic Manhattan violence.
